Pre-teaching
Routine: Checking attendance, checking in with Ls, T posts the Essential Question on the
board, Can Do’s, and class agenda, etc.

Warm up
The class is divided into groups of four people. The teacher gives each team some pieces of
a jigsaw puzzle and instructs them to assemble the puzzle as quickly as possible. The group
who assembles the puzzle first, yells out the name of the occupation in the picture:
“FARMER”.

Activation of prior knowledge


Learners observe the teacher as he/she sticks the picture of a farmer on the board and sets
up a table with the images of different activities (Make sure you include activities done by
different workers). Volunteers from the group go to the front and choose the images that
represent what a farmer does at a farm and stick them next to the picture on the board. The
teacher monitors and asks questions to the students to help them decide: “Does a farmer
help sick people?” Does a farmer feed animals? Does a farmer teach at school?”
Modeling
Using the images from the previous activity, the teacher describes what a farmer does at
the farm. For example, “The farmer is always busy. He does different activities during
the day.

He feeds the animals.

He milks the cows.

A farmer plants seed.

A farmer grows vegetables and fruits.

He waters the plants.

Farmers harvests their crops

A farmer collects eggs.

A farmer drives his tractor.

The teacher invites learners to repeat after him/her.

Clarifying

Learners observe the teacher as he/she distributes cards with the activities farmers do at the
farm and the pictures representing each activity. Learners listen to the teacher saying, for
example, “A farmer grows vegetables and fruit.” Then, the learners with the sentence
(card) and the corresponding image run to the front. The rest of the class decides if the
answer is correct.

Learners play “charades”. Volunteer students go to the front of the class and pick up a
flashcard with a picture and phrase of an activity done at the farm. The teacher shows the
flashcard to the students and he/she performs the action seen on the flashcard. The rest of
the class guesses the activity.

The learners play “picture race”. The teacher asks two volunteers to participate on a
competition. The teacher sticks on the board the flashcards used previously and says a
sentence. For example, “My brother feeds the animals.” The two students have to run to
touch the flashcard with the activity said by the teacher. Then, new volunteers participate
in the game.
Task completion
Learners listen to the WhatsApp audio “Karla’s day on her cousin’s farm”. As learners
listen, they have to circle all the activities Karla does at the farm. (Note: The teacher can
record the audio or ask a friend to do it.)

Script:
Hi mom! How is dad? I’m so excited of being at the farm. My cousin Ericka is always busy, but
she takes me everywhere she goes, and I help her to do her chores. We wake up early in the
morning to milk the cows. I love Anabelle, the cow, and she gives a lot of milk. Then, we go to
pick up the eggs. Aunt Lilly has many hens and chickens. They are so noisy! After breakfast,
Ericka and I go to the field and help the uncle to plant seeds and pick up fruit. That’s my favorite
part of the day because I get to eat delicious apples. Later in the afternoon, we water the plants
and finally we have dinner and go to bed early.
I miss you, but I’m having so much fun here that I’m going to stay a little bit longer, if you don’t
mind. Love ya! Kiss!

example,

 The farmer uses seeds to plant vegetables.


 The farmer uses a shovel to dig the vegetables out.
 A farmer uses a watering can to water the plants.
 The farmer uses a basket to collect the eggs.
 He uses a wheelbarrow to collect the vegetable.

Pre-teaching
Routine: Checking attendance, checking in with Ls, T posts the Essential Question on
the board, Can Do’s, and class agenda, etc.

Warm up
The teacher sticks the picture of a Farmer’s Market on the board and asks learners if
they remember what the picture represents. Then, the teacher explains that in today’s
class, they are going to read the poem “At the farmer’s market” by Buffy Silverman.
The learners listen to the teacher reading the poem, and they join the reading.
Activation of prior knowledge
Learners watch the video “At Mega Farmer’s Market in Costa Rica” (0:58 – 9:34 min)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCW_Tce9nCo. As learners watch the video, they
are asked to recall all the kinds of food they see. Then, they brainstorm those words as a
whole class while teacher writes them down on the board.

Modeling
The teacher explains that at the Farmer’s Market people can find fresh produce such as
fruit, vegetables, greens, dairy products, seafood and meat. The teacher presents some
flashcards to illustrate the kinds of food found at the farmer’s market. The pictures are
in different stands all over the board (simulating a farmer’s market). The teacher shows
the different kids of food and invites learners to remember the name of those products.
As learners remember the vocabulary, the teacher writes the name of the product next to
the corresponding picture.
The teacher sets up a table with different products found at the farmer’s market, and
then he/she explains the difference between countable and uncountable nouns:
For example, “I can count the apples: one apple, two apples, three apples, etc. I can
count the oranges: I have three big oranges. But I can’t count milk. I can’t say: “I need
three milks. I have to say: “I need some milk, or I need three bottles of milk. When I go
to the farmer’s market, I can buy products, and to do so I can say: “I want…… (four
green mangoes), I need three pineapples. I need some cheese.

The teacher writes two headings on the board: Countable and Noncountable and gives
each pair of students a set of countable and uncountable noun cards. The students
shuffle the cards and place them face down in a pile on the table. Students then take it
in turns to turn over a noun card and place it under a countable or uncountable noun
heading. When the students have finished, the teacher elicits the correct answers from
the class. Then, the whole class is asked to make meaningful sentences using “I
want…. , I need…”

Clarifying
The teacher spreads the cards used in the modeling activity on the floor and divides the
class into two groups. One group is asked to look for the cards representing food we can
count, and the other group looks for food we cannot count. The learners stick the cards
on the board in the corresponding column. Feedback is provided by peers.

Learners get a worksheet in which they must classify countable and noncountable kinds
of food into the corresponding column. Learners compare their answers in pairs. Then,
those images are used to practice saying: “I want… I need…”
Instructions:
These are foods that farmers sell at the Farmer’s Market. Some of them are countable and some
are uncountable. Classify them into the corresponding column.

Countable Uncountable
We can count… (apples) We cannot count… (rice)
 An apple  Some rice

Also, the teacher explains that for uncountable items we can use some words to make
them countable:
I want some milk---- I want two bottles of milk.
I need some cheese--- I need two kilos of cheese.
I want some honey--- I want a jar of honey.

Task-rehearsal
The teacher sets up the pictures used in the previous activities on tables in front of the
classroom and asks some volunteers to act if they were the farmers selling the products.
Then, the teacher takes out some groceries bags and pretends to go shopping to the
farmer’s market. Learners sit in pairs. They listen to the teacher and write a list of all
the things he/she buys at the market

The teacher says, for example, “It’s Thursday, and it’s my day to go to the farmer’s
market. I need some vegetables and fruits to buy.” The teacher walks around the
classroom and stops to see the pictures: “Mmm! This pineapple looks delicious. I want
three pineapples, please, and 10 oranges. Lettuce? No, I think I don’t need any lettuce,
but I need five cucumbers please. Wow, there is cheese here. I want some. Please, a
kilo of cheese, and some milk to, two bottles please…”

Then, the learners compare their answers with the rest of the group.

Task completion
Learners listen to the text “Shopping at the Farmer’s Market”. As learners listen,
they check the products from the shopping list Erin and Steve bought. In pairs, learners
compare their answers and then they share with the whole group.

The audio is played twice, or more, if necessary. The teacher monitors learner’s
performance.

Script: Adapted from www.lingoda.com

It’s a sunny Sunday afternoon today and Erin is walking through a farmer’s market with
Steve. They are shopping for ingredients so they can cook a nice dinner later. There are
many people at the market. Erin sees a man who is selling vegetables. They look fresh
and delicious. “We should get some vegetables so we can make a salad,” says Erin.
“Good idea, Erin. There are lots of vegetables here and they all look so good!”
They pick out some cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, and lettuce. They pay for the
vegetables and look around the market. They buy two apples, three pears, some meat and
a few other things for their dinner, too. “I can make the salad tonight,” says Erin, but we
don’t have any cheese at home.” Look, there is cheese.” Says Steve, and they get a kilo of
cheese and two bottles of milk. They walk home happily after their shopping at the
farmer’s market.

Pre-teaching
Warm up
The teacher labels two boxes with the cards ‘Countable’ and ‘Uncountable’ (one card per
box) and places them on the floor. The teacher brings pictures of countable and
uncountable food to the class and hides them all over the classroom. The class is divided
into two groups. A member of each group goes to the front, looks for the pictures, and
locates them in the corresponding box. The rest of the group indicates where the pictures
are hidden and helps their team member to locate each picture correctly in each box. The
group which locates more pictures correctly in each box wins. The teacher provides
feedback and reviews the meaning of countable and uncountable food.

Activation of prior knowledge


The class is divided into small groups. The teacher writes five sentences that elicit count
and noncount nous and asks the groups to write a list of words that they would use to
complete the blanks.
For example:
 I need three____________ (apples, bananas, eggs, etc.)
 I need some ____________ (milk, sugar, rice, honey, cheese)
 I want a (an) _____________
 I want some_____________

The groups share their list with the rest of the class. Teacher writes the words on the board
and provides feedback if necessary.
Modeling
The teacher writes ‘How much’ and ‘How many’ on the board and invites learners to
watch the following video: ‘How much? vs How many?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbeIFCTy9sU
The teacher explains that ‘How much’ is used to ask question with uncountable food, and
‘How many” is used for countable food.
Teacher also explains that there are words that can help to make something uncountable
into countable: cup, tablespoon, teaspoon, kilo, bar, bag ( use realia to introduce these
words)

The teacher provides more examples for students and asks them to repeat after him/her:
How many eggs do you need? I need _______
How many oranges do you want? I want______
How much sugar do you need? I need two cups of sugar.
How much honey do you need? I need a tablespoon of honey.
How much butter do you need? I need a bar of butter.

Clarifying
The teacher sticks the poster below on the board.

How much.. do you need? How many... do you need?

Teacher tells students to pretend they are at a grocery store. Using the pictures as clues,
learners take turns to go to the front and ask for a product to the grocery seller (the teacher)
Student: I need some cheese.
Teacher ‘How much cheese do you need?
Student: I need a kilo of cheese.

Then, learners volunteer to take the role of the grocer and the customer. They practice
asking the questions and answers. Teacher provides feedback.

Warm up:
Learners sing the song “Let’s go to the market”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0Y3bYRC5QU . Then, the learners list the food
they saw in the video.

Activation of prior knowledge


The learners observe the teacher as he/she places a box on the desk. The teacher then
writes on the board and asks learners “What does your family usually buy at the
farmer’s market? What do you buy at the farmer’s market? Learners, in groups of
four, brainstorm the name of different vegetables, fruits, dairy products, etc., their
families buy at the farmer’s market. Then, the teacher takes the box on the desk and
asks each learner to take a piece of paper from it. Each paper has the name of food
people can buy at the farmer’s market. Learners get a blank sheet of paper, and they are
asked to draw the type o food and paste it on the board. Learners review the name and
pronunciation of each type of food.

Modeling
The teacher explains that the food we eat comes from a farm. People buy the vegetables
and fruits at the farmer’s market and that food goes to our houses and to restaurants.
That’s why we say the food goes from farm -to- table. Teacher explains to learners that
in today’s class they are going to learn how to order food at the restaurant, but first the
teacher asks:
When you go to a restaurant, what do you usually order? Teacher shows pictures of
food people find at a restaurant as stimulus to the students, and then the teacher
provides sample sentences:
“I usually order a casado. Sometimes I order friend chicken and French fries.”

Then, some volunteers mention what they usually order at a restaurant: “ I usually
order…”

Next, the teacher explains that now they are going to learn how to order food at a
restaurant. To do so, learners first watch the following videos:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49QFHWIky-k&feature=youtu.be May I take
your order? Anything else? For here or to go. - English for Kids

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWMMkp35d6Y&feature=youtu.be May I take


your order? I'd like a pizza. (At the Restaurant) - Easy English Dialogue

The teacher then writes a simple conversation on the board using the target structure.
Leaners copy in their notebooks and repeat it after the teacher.
A: May I take your order?
B: Yes, I’d like spaghetti and salad.
A: Anything else?
C: I’d like a taco, please
A: Spaghetti, salad and taco. Right?
B: Yes, that’s right!

Clarifying
The teacher dresses up as she/he were a waiter/waitress. Then, sets up a table in front of
the class simulating a restaurant. The teacher asks for two volunteers to sit at the table.
Together with the teacher, the learners practice the conversation of how to order food at
the restaurant.

More volunteers go to the front and the practice continues.

Next, a student is asked to take the role of the waitress/waiter to take the order of their
classmates.
The learners in groups create a dialogue about ordering food in a restaurant based on a
draft given by the teacher. They present their short conversations to the class.

matches the description and/ or the best picture.

Pictures of people doing different actions are pasted all over the classroom. Learners
take turns to go to the front, say a sentence and another student runs to look for the
corresponding picture.

Learners think of a city and the activities people are doing there. They write 5 sentences
describing those actions:
Example:
 Two friends are going to a restaurant.
 A girl is eating an ice cream.
 A woman is planting flowers.

The class is then divided into pairs. Learners take turns to read their sentences to each
other and try to draw them from the description. Leaners compare the sentences to the
picture drawn.

Leaners self-assess their performance by using their fingers:


1 finger: I need help.
2 fingers: I did it, but I need to practice more.
3 fingers: I did it correctly.

the board. The class is divided into two teams, and then a member of each team stands
at the back of the room, looking down an aisle at the board. The teacher calls one of the
minimal pairs out, and the pair of students races to the front to touch the correct words
on the board or grab the appropriate flashcards. Student from the winning team could
have a turn calling the words for others to run.

Task completion
Teacher divides the group into pairs to play ‘Running Dictation’ One student runs to
read the words from somewhere farther away, like on the wall outside the classroom.
They then dictate to the other student who writes them down. The teacher monitors
learners’ performance when reading the target words: The difference between words
with /s/ sound and /z/ sound. Learners switch places and it is now time for the other
student to dictate.
Task assessment
Learners play ‘Crumple and Shoot Basketball’ The minimal pair words are written on
pieces of (scrap) paper. Students are lined up in two teams. In turn, the front student
picks up the paper and reads the word. If it’s read correctly, they then crumple it up and
throw it into a basket a set distance away. (Getting it into the basket wins another
point.)

Learners work on self and peer assessment. Whole class assesses their achievement of
the goal.
