The lesson is divided into three phases: grammar input, while-writing task and post-task. Different teaching strategies are adopted. Authentic teaching materials and family trees are used to evoke students\u2019 interest; self-discovery activities, the four square writing method, peer evaluation and cooperative learning are applied in the design of the lessons. Through the various language activities, students will be able to develop their four language skills as well as their generic skills, such as collaboration and communication skills (pair work) and critical thinking skills (peer evaluation).<\/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: 60 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;\">Use the simple present tense to talk about habitual actions and hobbies, e.g., <em>He plays table tennis and goes hiking<\/em><\/span><\/span>\n\t<\/li><li>\n\t\t<span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">Apply the subject-verb agreement to describe their families<\/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><a href=\"https:\/\/lml.eduhk.hk\/grammar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Lesson-Plan_Subject-Verb-Agreement-Senior-Primary.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Subject-Verb Agreement (Senior Primary)<\/a><\/span> <\/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<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/lml.eduhk.hk\/grammar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Worksheet_Subject-Verb-Agreement-Senior-Primary.docx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Worksheet<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/lml.eduhk.hk\/grammar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/PPT_Subject-Verb-Agreement-Senior-Primary_f.pptx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PPT<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\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 rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.weblearneng.com\/subject-verb-agreement\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.weblearneng.com\/subject-verb-agreement<\/a><\/span> <\/li><li> <span style=\"font-size: 16px;\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.englishclub.com\/grammar\/subject-verb-agreement.htm\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.englishclub.com\/grammar\/subject-verb-agreement.htm<\/a><\/span> <\/li><li> <span style=\"font-size: 16px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/writing.wisc.edu\/handbook\/grammarpunct\/subjectverb\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/writing.wisc.edu\/handbook\/grammarpunct\/subjectverb\/<\/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><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">We would like to express our gratitude to&nbsp;Li Man Yee for sending the project team her original lesson plan and allowing us to make modifications to it.&nbsp;<\/span><\/span> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color:#0000FF;\">The copyright of the learning materials belongs to The Education University of Hong Kong.
