Unit 1: A Long and Healthy Life 

Everyday English & CLIL Lesson Plan

PART 1 – MAIN CONTENT OF THE LESSON PLAN

This comprehensive lesson plan for Unit 1: A Long and Healthy Life is designed to foster both language proficiency and scientific understanding. Students will delve into two main areas:

• Everyday English: Offering Help and Responding: Learners will engage in a practical listening exercise to complete a conversation, followed by paired role-playing activities for various situations, such as a PE teacher helping a student with an exercise routine or a supermarket assistant aiding a customer. Useful expressions for offering and responding to help are explicitly provided and practiced.
• CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning): Bacteria and Viruses: The lesson integrates biology content by presenting a detailed text comparing bacteria and viruses. Students will complete a comparison table, identifying key differences in their nature (living/not living), size, diseases caused (e.g., Tuberculosis vs. Covid-19), and common treatments (e.g., Antibiotics vs. Vaccines). This section also includes a discussion on why not all bacteria are harmful.

The lesson culminates with a fun, team-based "Minigame: Immunity Squad" featuring multiple-choice questions on both the English expressions and scientific content. Additional tasks reinforce vocabulary and matching communicative functions. Finally, a home-based "AI Home Helper" task challenges students to create dialogues offering help using an AI chatbot.
