GETTING STARTED

PART 1 – MAIN CONTENT OF THE LESSON PLAN

This comprehensive PowerPoint lesson plan focuses on "ASEAN AND VIET NAM" for the "GETTING STARTED" section, designed to engage students through a variety of interactive activities. The lesson begins with a warm-up video and a dynamic "RUNG CHUÔNG VÀNG" (Golden Bell Ringing) game, which tests students' prior knowledge about ASEAN with multiple-choice questions such as:

• "When was ASEAN founded?" (Options: A. 1999, B. 1979, C. 2015, D. 1967)
• "What does ASEAN stand for?" (Options related to Association of Southeast Asian Nations)
• "How many countries belong to ASEAN today?" (Options: A. Nine, B. Ten, C. Eleven, D. Twelve)

The core activities include: 
Activity 1: Listen and Read – Students explore a conversation about the ASEAN Youth Volunteer Programme (AYVP), followed by comprehension questions. This section introduces key vocabulary. 
Vocabulary Building – Detailed slides define and illustrate essential terms like 'volunteer', 'promote', 'take part (in)', 'youth', 'development', 'qualified', 'depend (on)', 'propose', 'community', and 'participate', complete with phonetic transcriptions and Vietnamese translations. 
Activity 2: True/False Statements – Students analyze statements based on the conversation, reinforcing reading comprehension. 
Activity 3: Match words with definitions – A classic matching exercise for vocabulary mastery. 
Activity 4: Complete the sentences – Fill-in-the-blanks activity using new vocabulary and phrases. 
The lesson then moves into a 'Practice' segment featuring another interactive game, "LA BÀN DIỆU KỲ" (Magic Compass), where students answer multiple-choice questions to reinforce learning, for instance: 
Question: "My sister is a dedicated __________ who helps teach street children without receiving any money." (Options: A. volunteer, B. development, C. goal, D. identity) 
Further practice includes grammar tasks such as: 
Task 1: Put the verbs in brackets into the correct gerund form (V-ing). Example: "Ms. Pang suggested (check) __________ the website..." 
Task 2: Use the correct form of the words in capitals to complete the sentences. Example: "Becoming a youth __________ is a great way to help the ASEAN community. (VOLUNTARY)" 
The lesson concludes with an 'Application' section detailing a home writing task: "My AYVP Application Profile", providing context, instructions, an example, and mandatory requirements (use of gerunds and specific vocabulary). Homework reinforces vocabulary and grammar, preparing students for the next lesson.
