1. I will try to make students speak as much as possible by making them discuss everything they have to do.
2. I will use effective CCQ to make sure my students know what they have to do.

The main lesson is focused in Food eating habits. I will focus my lesson on students fluency, and Ill provide a safe space where they
speak using the target language and they continue focused in the activity .

Main Objectives:
(What do you want the Ss to be able to do with the
new material that they couldnt do before?)
(there might be subsidiary objectives. Feel free to
include them.

SWBAT: Use yes/no questions with Can and Do in the second person singular (can you cook rice and beans?) to talk about
food habits in a mingle activity.

Assumptions:
(What do your students already know what can they
already do in relation to todays lesson?)

I assume students manage very well the simple questions using Can and D o. I expect them to know basic vocabulary about food.

Challenges/Opportunities for Teaching:

(What will be new for your students? What aspects
of the lesson do you anticipate they might find
challenging / difficult?)

Students might not know some vocabulary about food.

Solutions for challenges:

(How will you avoid and/or address these problem
areas in your lesson?)

I will bring the definitions or pictures of the new vocabulary words that students might not know (yolk, raw, junk food, grill, rare) and go
through them with the class as they receive their paper.

Assessment:
(How will you assess to see that Ss are ready to
move on to the next stages of the lesson or have

I will ask students to think about what is their question. Then Ill have them read it out loud.
