 Methodologies
Planning the classes

Each week the teacher needs to finish two lessons and each class period should contain warming up, activities,

mini and whole assessments.

Small group and pair work

Teacher needs to vary the activities giving group, pairs individual and whole classroom works, to extend and

personalize what they have learnt in each unit.

Vocabulary

Give students opportunity to be involved during the lesson, by making discussion activities for them during the

lesson then display their work. In addition, encourage the students to take advantage of technology such as radio,

play song in English to develop their vocabulary skills.

Language structure

Working in tasks to involve the kids in learning new language through activities, to make the students individually

aware of language.

Reading

Giving stories and poems for the students to develop their critical thinking skills by guessing answers for

questions the teacher asks loud. Also, to allow them to look through materials in reading periods.

Writing

Helping the student on writing short sentences, that theyll present the language they learnt by giving them

opportunity to write about the world and their daily realities.
