Subject: English
Class 4 (2nd year of English. 2 x 45 minutes a week)
Teacher: Susan Granlund
Competence stages: Stages 0 - 3
AIMS
Linguistic: To expand and revise vocabulary in many areas (parts of the body, homes, adjectives, places, movement, character...) in the context of talking / writing about animals. To practise using 'has' and doesn't', which are new to the pupils and which many find difficult. They also confuse 'is' and 'has' and these are used a lot when describing animals.
Thinking: To be able to describe an animal appropriately, so that someone who had never seen the animal would recognise it; to learn to recognise and use parameters and values to help organise and plan thoughts and work ; to learn to think about the distinguishing features of something.
Metacognitive: to become aware of and start to recognise the difference between remembering words and being able to use them in context.
