To arouse students\u2019 interest, the lesson begins with a presentation of two interesting pictures and example sentences about a baby who wants more milk and an old man who wishes to have more teeth. Students are then presented with the story \u2018Making Wishes\u2019, in which \u2018few\u2019 and \u2018little\u2019 are heavily used. The lesson adopts an inductive approach to raise students\u2019 awareness of the different usages of \u2018few\u2019 and \u2018little\u2019. Students are asked to find out from the story the nouns used after the two determiners and they have to classify them into different groups. Through the comparison, students will be able to master the target structures. The final writing task allows students to use the grammar items to express their own wishes as well as to develop their creativity.&nbsp;<\/span><\/span> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><strong>Level of Students: Senior Primary<\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><strong>Lesson Duration: 55 minutes<\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><strong>Learning Objectives:<\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">At the end of this unit, students should be able to:<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>\n\t\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">Identity the difference between the two determiners \u2018few\u2019 and \u2018little\u2019<\/span><\/span>\n\t<\/li><li>\n\t\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">Use the two determiners \u2018few\u2019 and \u2018little\u2019 to write a story on wish making &nbsp;<\/span><\/span>\n\t<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p> <span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><strong>Lesson Plan:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/span><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/lml.eduhk.hk\/grammar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Lesson-plan_Few-Little-Senior-Primary.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">Few &amp; Little (Senior Primary)<\/span><\/span> <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><strong>Teaching Materials:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li> <span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lml.eduhk.hk\/grammar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Worksheet_Few-Little-Senior-Primary.docx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Worksheet<\/a><\/span><\/span> <\/li><li> <span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lml.eduhk.hk\/grammar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/PPT_Few-Little-Senior-Primary.pptx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PPT<\/a><\/span><\/span> <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><strong>Useful Websites:<\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li> <span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ego4u.com\/en\/cram-up\/vocabulary\/little-few\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.ego4u.com\/en\/cram-up\/vocabulary\/little-few<\/a><\/span> <\/li><li> <span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/grammar\/british-grammar\/little-a-little-few-a-few\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">http:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/grammar\/british-grammar\/little-a-little-few-a-few<\/a><\/span> <\/li><li> <span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.grammar-quizzes.com\/agr_littlefew.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">http:\/\/www.grammar-quizzes.com\/agr_littlefew.html<\/a><\/span> <\/li><li> <span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tolearnenglish.com\/exercises\/exercise-english-2\/exercise-english-25720.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">http:\/\/www.tolearnenglish.com\/exercises\/exercise-english-2\/exercise-english-25720.php<\/a><\/span> <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\"><strong>Acknowledgements:<\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">We would like to express our gratitude to&nbsp;Lui Ka Man&nbsp;for sending the project team her original lesson plan and allowing us to make modifications to it.&nbsp;<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color:#0000FF;\">The copyright of the learning materials belongs to The Education University of Hong Kong.
