3. 3. Seating arrangement: students will be sitting on the floor in a semicircle facing the board while they listen to the short story. Then theyll be standing all around the classroom. Pedagogical use of ICT in class or at home: in this lesson, the use of ICT is included at very beginning. Students will watch a video song. Possible problems / difficulties and their possible solutions during the class: students may not want to share the cookies, but Ill remind them that today we have read a story in which the friend share the cookies, and Ill show them the page at which each child has one. Also I must monitor and enhance students cooperation with others. Potential problems students may have with the language: students may not immediately remember the word grandma. However Ill name it as much as I can, as well as I ask students to repeat it. Classroommanagement strategies: a corner for the community circle and tables and chairs in the other side. I will use cushions or chairs during the community circle because these resources help students to stay in their places. Then we will stand up and move to the bigger side of the classroomso students can freely move around. If they misbehave I will sing the we make silence song or 1, 2, 3, silence/sit down please! or stop the song so they notice that there is something wrong. Assessment: what will be assessed and how: Ill check students comprehend the story by performing diverse tasks such as manipulating paper cookies, making division discoveries and role playing. Lesson stages: ROUTINE: (2) - Ill greet students Hello! How are you? Are you happy? while I smile making a happy face. Ss will answer Hello! Yes! Happy! or they will be silent since they are shy at the very first time. Now Ill ask students to sit down in a circle on the floor or in a chair, so that everyone can see and greet each other. Ill say Lets make a circle! Just sit down, very good! Then we will sing the welcome song, Lets sing the hello song altogether. Hello song: HELLO, HELLO, HELLO, HELLO! TO YOU AND YOU AND YOU! HELLO, HELLO, HELLO, HELLO! TO YOU AND YOU AND YOU! WHAT A LOVELY WAY TO START THE DAY! HELLO, HELLO, HELLO!
4. 4. http://ec-pub-ecureuils-85.ac-nantes.fr/articles.php?lng=fr&pg=146 (adaptedversion) The song includes body language, that is, gestures and movements. The main purpose of this stage is to start the lesson and prepare students into the mood for work. Transition: Ill say Very good!! How nice! Who knows the 10 little Indians song? It saysone little two little three little indians and I wait for students response. WARM-UP: (around 5) - Then Ill say Lets seenow we are going to watch a video about the song ten little indians. While you watch the video, you can sing the song. Is it okay? and students will reply yes/no. Ill focus students attention on the computer by opening it and putting it in front of them. After checking students can see the screen Ill play the video.

When I touch your head, you have to sit down! Is it okay?, Ss will respond yes! Ill check students comprehension by starting singing slowly and showing students what do they have to do. Ill encourage students to join in and sing along by saying Come on! Lets sing all together!. The main purpose here is to review numbers from 1 to 10, since students need the vocabulary for the following stage. PRESENTATION: (around 8) - Students are still sitting in a circle on the floor. Now Ill move the computer away and Ill stick one picture on the board:
6. 6. Ill tell students Wow! Look at this picture! Who is she? Shes grandma (pointing at the granny) I will repeat Lets repeat shes grandma!. Students repeat shes Grandma!. Then Ill reply Very good! Shes Grandma! And lookshe cooked some cookies! (Pointing to the cookies) Lets repeat, theyre cookies! and students will repeat theyre cookies!. Ill ask Do you like cookies? Yummy?

(sound) Its a doorbell! What is it? and Ss repeat Its a doorbell after listening to the sound. The main purpose of showing the pictures above is to introduce the topic and to further expose learners to the target language, to foster comprehension of a story. So now Ill draw students attention to the book The Doorbell Rang by Pat Hutchins. Ill show them the first pages and Ill explain now we are going to read this story
8. 8. And Ill say Look! What is it here on the tray? (by pointing to the cookies), Ss will answer cookies, and Ill repeat Yes great! Some cookies! Mmm, yummy! And look, she is Victoria and he is Sam., while pointing to each and then sticking two children on the board: Finally Ill say And here is their mum, she cooked some cookies! Yummy!! while pointing to her and taking from a bag a tray with 12 fake cookies: Ill say Ok, lets start reading! and Ill put the tray to a side and take the book. So, Ill read and guide students through the book. Story: The Doorbell Rang by Pat Hutchins Ive made some cookies for tea, said Ma. Good, said Victoria and Sam. Were starving. Share them between yourselves, said Ma, Ive made plenty. Thats six each, said Sam and Victoria. They look as good as Grandmas. And they smell as good as Grandmas No one makes cookies like Grandma, said Ma as the doorbell rang. It was Tom and Hannah from next door. Come in, said Ma. You can share the cookies.
9. 9. Thats three each, said Sam and Victoria. They smell as good as your Grandmas said Tom. and look as good, said Hannah. No one makes cookies like Grandma, said Ma as the doorbell rang. It was Peter and his little brother. Come in, said Ma. You can share the cookies. Thats two each, said Victoria and Sam. They look as good as your Grandmas, and smell as good said Peter. Nobody makes cookies like Grandma, said Ma as the doorbell rang. It was Joy and Simon with their four cousins. Come in, said Ma. You can share the cookies. Thats one each, said Sam and Victoria. They smell as good as your Grandmas said Joy. And look as good said Simon. No one makes cookies like Grandma, said Ma as the doorbell rang. And rang. Oh dear, said Ma as the children stared at the cookies on their plates. Perhaps youd better eat them before we open the door. Well wait, said Sam. It was Grandma with an enormous tray of cookies. how nice to have so many friends to share them with said Grandma. Its a good thing I made a lot! And no one makes cookies like Grandma, said Ma as the doorbell rang Ill follow the reading by sticking the faces and paper cookies mini flashcards on the board:
10. 10. As in the pictures, Ill equally share the cookies with characters. Each time someone arrives to Victoria and Sams Ill divide again the cookies. Transition: Ill say Ok, did you like it?, students will reply Yes! and Ill ask them Great! Would you like to help me sharing the cookies with the characters? DEVELOPMENT: - Activity 1: (around 5) While I am re- reading the story to the students, Ill encourage them to work with the faces and the paper cookies mini flashcards. Students will have to divide the cookies among the children. After each group arrives Ill tell them Now you can share the cookies like this and Ill show them how I equally share the cookies with Victoria and Sam. Ill explain we have to divide the cookies equally among the children. Then Ill let some children do it by themselves, in pairs, with the other arrivals.
11. 11. - Activity 2 : (around 8) Role-playing: Now Ill show students a bag with the props students will use for the role play. Ill put it in the middle of the circle and Ill say Do you want to see what is it here?, Ss will reply yes! so Ill let students take a look and take out those things. There are some aprons and paper plates to each student, a chal and a wig. Also, we will use the cookie tray with 8 paper cookies (students are 9, but 1 will be the grandma, and Ill be the mum) Dialogue (Ill change the dialogues from the book, and make them easier to adapt it to students level. Also, Ill use students names): 1 to 8: students names 1: Yummy! Im hungry 2: Me too! Mum: Ive made some cookies. Share them. 1: eight cookies. 2: four cookies each. Both: Yummy! (The doorbell rings) Mum: Hello! Come in! 3 & 4: Hello! Yummy! Mum: Share the cookies. 1, 2, 3 & 4: two cookies each! (Doorbell rings)
12. 12. Mum: hello! Come in! 5, 6, 7 & 8: hello! Yummy! Mum: share the cookies. All children: one cookie each! (Doorbell rings) Children: oh oh! Grandma: Hello! Some cookies for you! Children: thank you grandma!! Each time the doorbell rings, more students come up. Each time students need to divide the cookies among themselves. The purpose of the activities above is to foster contextualised practice of the teaching points, as well as work upon the value of sharing a limited amount of resources, and also to increase listening comprehension and the use of critical thinking skills, since students need to divide the cookies equally. Transition: Ill congratulate students for their fantastic job. Ill say Excellent children! Youve worked lovely! Did you like it?, Ss will reply Yes/No CLOSURE: (around 2) Finally Ill invite students to put the props inside the bag again and sit down in a circle, on the floor or in a chair. If we have time we will sing the Ten little Indians song again. If not, Ill tell students that we have no more time and we will sing the Good Bye song. Okay now is time to say good bye: GOOD BYE, GOOD BYE SEE YOU AGAIN! GOOD BYE GOOD BYE SEE YOU MY FRIENDS! GOOD BYE GOOD BYE I HAVE FUN TODAY, I HAVE FUN TODAY! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xcws7UWWDEs (shorter version) The song includes body language.
