THIS IS MY

FAVOURITE
SHIRT.

Time: 45 minutes

Materials:
- Lecture slide: KE45 - Speak B - Unit 9 (1) -This is my favourite shirt
- Toys and crafts: Puppet, rewarding system (Kani image, carrot images etc or flexible)
- Flashcards
- Whiteboard and pen

General notes:
- Speed: For this level, speaking speed is really important. Teachers should speak
slower than usual. Speed will be decided based on the student's age, the younger the
slower. Speed will also depend on the students’ level.
- TPR: Using TPR is really important to motivate the student and using puppets,
flashcards, as required, will help motivate the student.
- Pronunciation: For ESL students, correcting pronunciation is really important and
teachers should correct during the class.
- The teacher should appraise the student or correct positively frequently.
- If the student cannot answer, the teacher can mouth then say out loud to help.
- If the student cannot concentrate, the teacher can use TPR or puppets.
-
!!! For Kyna Speak, students are NOT expected to write. Please make sure that the
student tool mode is off during class. It should be granted for students at some
activities mentioned in the LP. Instead, all answers should be given orally in full
sentences. Please pay attention to their use of English and pronunciation and fix their
errors during class.
Evaluate student performance after class (for teachers): Please spare five minutes to fill
