PART 1 – MAIN CONTENT OF THE LESSON PLAN

This comprehensive lesson plan for "Unit 5: Our Experiences - Skills 1" is designed to engage students in exploring and discussing various life experiences. The lesson begins with a dynamic warm-up activity, prompting students to reflect on past experiences through video prompts. Key activities include:

• Reading Comprehension: Students read short texts describing the summer course experiences of two individuals, Duong and Akiko, followed by multiple-choice and matching questions to test their understanding.
• Interactive Practice: A fun "Lucky Card" game challenges students with five multiple-choice questions focusing on asking about feelings, specific activities, summarizing experiences, understanding advertising content, and correct use of grammar (e.g., Present Perfect for general experiences and Past Simple for specific details). For example, a question might ask: "Which sentence correctly uses the present perfect to describe a general life experience and the past simple to give a specific detail?" with options such as "A. I have attended a summer camp in Da Lat. I went there last July."
• Information Extraction: An activity requires students to read a short paragraph about a photography masterclass and complete a "Course Fact File," extracting specific details like course name, time, place, activities, and feelings.
• Creative Application: The lesson culminates in a group task titled "Design Your Dream Summer Course Pitch," where students collaboratively design a mini-poster and prepare a persuasive presentation for an imaginary summer course for teenagers.
