Teacher Lesson Plan · Read before class
This is a Guided Speaking lesson, not a reading lesson. Keep examples visible only long enough for the learner to select useful language. Accept clear A2 language, correct after a speaking round and keep learner talk time above 70%.
| Time | Teacher does | Student does | Required result |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0–3 | Accept approximate times. Do not correct every preposition during planning. | Choose the day. Name four main activities. | You have four activity keywords and one pressure point. |
| 3–8 | Keep could as a useful chunk. Accept simple reasons and focus on whether the change is realistic. | Choose three sequence markers. Choose one pressure frame. | You can show order, problem and solution. |
| 8–12 | Reject a suggestion only when it does not address the evidence. Ask “Which part becomes easier?” | Identify the exact pressure point in the specific version. Add one time detail to a vague sentence. | The suggestion solves the stated pressure point. |
| 12–17 | Prompt with the four labels. Hide the model before the learner speaks continuously. | Describe at least four activities in order. State the pressure point and effect. | The listener can repeat both the problem and the proposed change. |
| 17–21 | Ask one genuine feasibility question. Accept a revised suggestion if the first idea is unrealistic. | Give the day-to-change message. Answer one teacher concern. | You explain and defend a practical change without reading. |
| 21–27 | Reveal the condition only after the first plan. Give ten seconds for keyword planning, then keep prompts hidden. | Choose one changed condition. Restate the affected part of the day. | Your revised change fits the new condition. |
| 27–30 | Score the independent first attempt. Give one success and one improvement before the short retry. | Speak for about 60 seconds with clear sequence. Explain one pressure point and effect. | The listener understands the day and believes the change could help. |

| Version | Message | Can we improve it? |
|---|---|---|
| Vague | My day is very busy. | Not yet—the problem is unclear. |
| Specific | I finish class at 5:00 and start work at 5:30, so I do not have enough travel time. | Yes—the time gap is clear. |

Example
First, I take my son to school, and then I travel to work. The busiest part is the morning because I do not have enough time for breakfast. I could prepare food the night before. It would help me leave calmly.

0 · Not yetThe criterion is not demonstrated, even after one clear prompt.
1 · With supportThe criterion is partly demonstrated or needs a teacher prompt, model or supplied language.
2 · IndependentThe criterion is demonstrated clearly without a model or supplied language. Natural hesitation is acceptable.
