Unit 2: Humans and The Environment

Getting Started

PART 1 – MAIN CONTENT OF THE LESSON PLAN

This comprehensive PowerPoint presentation is designed for teaching "Unit 2: Humans and The Environment" with a focus on the "Getting Started" section. It's meticulously crafted to engage students and introduce them to key environmental concepts and language effectively.

The lesson commences with an engaging Warm-up activity where students watch a video and answer a question, immediately fostering interaction. Following this, Activity 1: Listen and Read presents a conversation about a "Go Green Club," providing an authentic context for language acquisition. The presentation then systematically introduces essential vocabulary such as "Youth Union," "encourage," "adopt," "lifestyle," "clean up," "ceremony," "raise," "awareness," "issue," and "carbon footprint." Each term is accompanied by its phonetic transcription, an illustrative image, and its Vietnamese translation to ensure clear understanding.

Reinforcement of learning is achieved through subsequent activities: Activity 2 tests comprehension with questions based on the dialogue. Activity 3 is a matching exercise, requiring students to pair verbs and phrasal verbs (e.g., raise, reduce, set up) with appropriate nouns or noun phrases to form correct expressions. Activity 4 focuses on grammar, challenging students to complete sentences using relevant verb forms such as was set up, are going to, or will, based on the conversation content.

The lesson transitions into practical application with two Practice Tasks. Task 1 provides exercises for filling in the blanks with the newly acquired vocabulary, while Task 2 focuses on choosing the correct verb forms to complete sentences, solidifying understanding of future tenses. The presentation further includes a detailed and innovative Application/Home Task: "PROBLEM – SOLUTION: BE A GREEN PROBLEM SOLVER," where students are guided to identify environmental problems, propose solutions using structures like "be going to" and relevant vocabulary, and predict outcomes with "will," culminating in the creation of a digital poster.

Homework assignments encourage reviewing new vocabulary, preparing for the next lesson, and completing the "Problem – Solution" task. A valuable Reference link to external online quizzes is also provided for extended learning and self-assessment.
