How To Proceed
1Warm up
For this first lesson, it is best to focus on only the I, You, He/She/It
structureswhich you can build upon in later classes. If students
have not really done a lot of activities with the words he, she, and it,
you may want to consider simply using names in the practice
activities. Once you have determined what you would like to cover in
the first lesson, use the warm up activityto review the vocabulary
students will need later on in the lesson. Ashort simple drill
activitywould be ideal.
2Introduce VocabularyDuring the introduction section of your lesson, introduce any new
vocabulary you plan to use in this lesson. Some emotionsand
adjectives would be good because students will then be able to form
complete meaningful sentences. Introduce words such
as happyand sadif students have not yet learned them. Use
flashcards to drill vocabularyand have students complete some
simple worksheet activities for further practice.
3Introduce to be
how students how to make sentences such as !I am happy. "ou are
happy. #enny is happy.$ %nsure that students understand how the

subject and forms of the verb are paired. "ou can practice this before
introducing the full sentence structure you would like students to
learn. &all on students to make sentences choosing a subject, verb,
and adjective from columns on the board. 'ithout introducing the
(uestion form !Is she happy)$ you can use such (uestions to test
comprehension and students should understand what you are
asking. *ave them answer by saying !"es, she is happy.$ so that
they continue to practice saying the target structure.
4!ractice Simple
"ou can use worksheets for practice. *ave students complete a fill in
the blank e+ercise where they must choose am, is, or are to
complete sentences to ensure that they understand which form of
the verb agrees with certain subjects. "ou can also have students
match sentences with images or with translations for practice and to
test comprehension. As a class check the answers before continuing
on.
5!ractice "omple#
Students can then complete an activity such as $attleship for
further practice% You can adapt this classic &ame for use in the
classroom%'hile it can be time consuming to e+plain, especially to
beginners, your students will enjoy playing and it can be used to
practice a wide variety of topics. o play -attleship students should
work in pairs using a worksheet. For this class, the grids on the
worksheet might have I, "ou, *e, he, #enny, s. mith in the first
column and happy, fun, from /orea, sad, silly, from America in the
first row. tudents then practice sentences such as !I am silly.$ to try

to locate and sink all of their opponents ships first. here may not be
enough time in the first lesson to begin this activity but devoting the
second lesson entirely to -attleship would &ive your students lots of
spea'in& practice. For a third class, introduce the (uestion that goes
along with this target structure and have students play using the
same worksheet but by making (uestions such as !Is s. mith from
America)$ he really great thing about this activity is that students
essentially have to speak in order to play whereas with board
&amesstudents may be tempted to simply roll the dice and move
their pieces around the board without really practicing %nglish.
6(eview
As a general review activity you can divide students into groups
and play Han&manwith sentences or words from their te+tbook. It is
perhaps not appropriate to play the original game in your classroom
so you can just adapt it so that no one actually hangs. One
adaptation is to simply have a very large fish where when students
guess incorrectly, a little fish gets closer and closer to being eaten.
his is not very accurate as you can either draw the game out or endit whenever you choose. Another method of playing is to assign a
point value to certain things. For e+ample, if a group guesses the
letter a and there are three in the sentence, the group would get
three points. A correct guess of the entire sentence would be five
points while there should be a penalty for guessing the entire phrase
incorrectly but no penalty for guessing a letter that is not used. "ou
can alter the scoring anyway you would like to make it more
appropriate for your class.)nce your students are *uite confident with ma'in& the sentences
practiced in this lesson, you should include the plural we, you, they as
well% +s the first verb they study, to be is very important for your
students and it is essential to &et them to understand that the form of
the verb is affected by the subect of the sentence%
