Introduction

10’

Teacher greets students and explains lesson objectives.

Teacher presents the video about games that held in Kazakhstan and asks them questions.

Teacher writes stem sentences on the board for learners to use them for the following activity:

I think that…

You may be right but…

What about…?

I’m not sure that really true.

Possibly, but…

Students watch the video about games that held in Kazakhstan

(W)They answer for the given questions:

- Can you name Kazakhstani sportsmen and what type of sports they do?

- What events of global scale do hold in Kazakhstan as well as Asian winter games in 2011?

- Are many people in Kazakhstan interested in them?

The learners’ role here is to stretch themselves to think about the world. Learners gather their thoughts before starting a debate.

Differentiation by support: less able students are provided by dictionaries.

Main part 25’

Debate:

T sets up a debate where half of the class must take one side and the other must argue the case for the other point of view.

T monitors to allow learners to develop fluency. However, it is important to make discreet notes of any recurring errors for future planning.

Also makes notes of significant progress.

(G,F,C4, S3) Learners choose the controversial topic about sports in Kazakhstan:

●World Sports – how far can world events such as the Olympics, the Winter Olympics, tennis etc. help integration between Kazakhstan and other countries?

●What advantages and disadvantages does involvement in international events bring to Kazakhstan?

Learners are divided into 2 groups:

Step 1 -there are 5 learners sitting on the chairs in the inner circle; 5 learners form the outer circle standing behind whose who are sitting.

Step 2 - each learner of the inner circle has 1 min to express his/her perspective on the issue discussed (monologue). This should be done in turns. Then they have 3 minutes to debate as a group expressing their agreement or disagreement, asking extra questions and addressing each other (conversation).

Each learner of the outer circle focuses on the speech of a person he is standing behind paying attention to the way the speaker builds the argument (whether it is strong or weak), use of appropriate expressions.

Step 3 -‘listeners’ give feedback on what have been produced by ‘speakers’

Step 4 - learners switch their roles; they go through steps 2 and 3 again

Differentiation by support:

Less able students use dictionaries.

Differentiation support is made by giving students phrases useful for discussion

Reflection

Were the Lesson Objectives/Learning objectives realistic?

What did the learners learn today?

What was the learning atmosphere like?

Did my planned differentiation work well?

Did I stick to timings? What changes did I make from my plan and why?

Use the space below to reflect on your lesson. Answer the most relevant questions from the box on the left about your lesson.

Lesson objectives were realistic and achievable.

Learners discuss in groups for given topics and give feedback to each other.

Learning atmosphere was pleasant and contributed to the learning process

My planned differentiation worked well and helped less-able students to be involved in the debates

Yes, I controlled the time. I did not make any changes in my plan.

Summary evaluation. What two things went really well (consider both teaching and learning)?

1: All students participated actively and all of them gave full detailed answer for given questions. Learners explained their ideas clearly using opinion expressions.

2: During debate, all students supported their ideas with at least 2 strong evidence and evaluated others’ points of view by commenting and making conclusion.

What two things would have improved the lesson (consider both teaching and learning)?

1: Maybe I will prepare some interesting videos and resources like as additional material.

What have I learned from the lesson about the class or individuals that will inform my next lesson?

I have learned that there are some students in this class, who are not interested in this theme about sport. So next lesson I should prepare some interesting games or activities to make students more motivated.
