Basic 3 English Language Term 3 Week 12 Lesson Plan

Engage students in a warm-up activity by sharing a story that uses both verbal and non-verbal cues, and ask students to identify these cues. Play a short video clip with muted sound and have students guess the emotions and actions based on the body language of the characters. Conduct a quick oral quiz where students use gestures to indicate the correct answers to simple questions. Ask students to share their favorite story and express it using a combination of voice modulation and gestures to emphasize key parts.

Oral Language: Conduct a classroom activity where students practice using gestures and facial expressions to enhance their storytelling. Have students work in pairs to role-play a dialogue, focusing on using non-verbal cues to convey meaning.

Have students collaborate to create a storyboard for a TV performance, ensuring that their ideas are well-organized and informative.
