ABSTRACT

This learning session entitled "giving advice" has been taken so that third grade students

learn to use manners and can give advice for a health problem.

The lesson begins by activating their previous knowledge, showing an image and asking

questions, mediating which the students themselves decipher the theme of the class. During the

lesson, the main objective is to make the students part of the class and their learning process, making

them use their communication skills. To meet the objective of this lesson, the use of the

communicative method, and task-based teaching to give students the confidence to participate in

what they are learning, has been considered. The techniques and materials have been chosen taking

into account some factors of the students such as their age, grade, previous knowledge and some

others to maximize their learning of the English language

Keywords: Health problems, Advice, Modal verbs.

INTRODUCTION

English is not only an international language but an essential language for interpersonal

communication across the world. Learning English is as important as eating food for a living. English

is the language for research in any field, it can be for student life or for business. It is essential to

learn, read, speak and write in English , so it is an important language because as we go anywhere

across the globe, it is the most common language which people overseas can speak and write without

any hurdle and it plays an important role in spreading knowledge of any kind. Having a good command

of the English language increases your chances of getting a good job in a multinational company

within your home country or abroad. Therefore, making our students improve their English will help

them achieve better opportunities to work around the globe.

This present lesson plan entitled “Giving advice” has been designed for the Third grade

students. At the end of the class students will be able to give a good piece of advice for a health

problem. It aims to satisfy the need of young students of English offering an easy and interesting way

of learning the target language and using it in their lives. This lesson introduces the learners to

recognize some expressions in a real situation and prompts them to talk about it. In order to

accomplish this, it has been considered the Communicative Approach, which provides students

learning situations that help them develop their communicative competences by contextualizing

language in the classroom.

II. THEORICAL SUPPORT

2.1. Thematic aspect

2.1.1. “Should” and “Shouldn’t”

We use should and shouldn't to give advice or to talk about what we think is right or

wrong.

You should means something like I think it is a good idea for you to do it.

You shouldn't means something like I think it is a bad idea for you to do it.

Should is used to express the opinion of a speaker and often follows I think or I don't

think.

2.1.2. Structure of should

The basic structure for should is:

subject + auxiliary verb

should

+ main verb

Note that:

- The auxiliary verb should is invariable. There is only one form: should

- The main verb is usually in the base form (He should go).

Look at the basic structure again, with positive, negative and question sentences:

subject auxiliary

should not

main verb

base

+ He should Take an aspirin.

- You should not smoke

? Should we help?

III. PEDAGOGICAL SUPPORT

Nowadays, the education is oriented by a series of principles that defines and clarifies its notion.

- Individualization

Students have needs and abilities that are unique. There are differences in their speaking,

listening, writing, reading activities; differences in the way of thinking; feeling; etc.

This principle tells that the center of the educational action is the person who has to adapt himself

some interest and procedures. Each person wants the greatest perfection to develop whatever

he wants individually.

The role of the teacher is to observe and to orientate his studies adequately.

- Socialization

The purpose of Education is to socialize students. When students work in pairs or small groups

and ask each other about their answers, they interact, and at the same time they learn to

communicate in the target language and assimilate knowledge, experiences, and so on.

- The motivation

This aspect is crucial because nobody learns if any reason moves her/him. The students will feel

attracted by the pictures which are from real life, the topic that is familiar to them, the interesting

exercises and everything used in class; not only because of the entertainment but also because

of the participation, the intellectual challenge, etc.

3.1. Psychological support

3.1.1. The motivation principle

“This aspect is crucial because nobody learns if any reason moves her/ him. The

students will feel attracted by the audios which are from real life, the topics that are

familiar to them, the interesting exercises and everything used in class; not only

because of the entertainment, but also because of the participation, the intellectual

challenge”.( Gardner and Lambert, 1972).

3.1.2. Constructivist theory (J. Bruner)

Bruner's theory on constructivism encompasses the aim that education should be to

create autonomous learners and that learning as an active process where learning is

able to form new ideas based on what their current knowledge is as well as their past

TSP UNITRU Biblioteca de Educación y Ciencias de la Comunicación – UNT

19

knowledge. A cognitive structure is defined as the mental processes, which offers the

learner the ability to organize experiences and derive meaning from them. These

cognitive structures allow the learner to push the past given information in constructing

their new concepts. The learner, often a child, will take pieces of their past knowledge

and experiences and organize them to make sense of what they know, then base further

concepts and solve additional problems based upon a combination of what they already

processed and what they think should be processed next.

Bruner's three mode of representation:

1) Enactive. - It involves encoding action based information and storing it in our

memory.

2) Iconic. - This is where information is stored visually in the form of images.

3) Symbolic. - This is where information is stored in the form of a code or symbol,

such as language.

For Bruner (1961), the purpose of education is not to impart knowledge, but instead

to facilitate a child's thinking and problem-solving skills, which can be transferred to a

range of situations. Specifically, education should also develop symbolic thinking in

children.

3.1.3. The cognitive theory

In cognitive learning, the individual learns by listening, watching, touching, reading, or

experiencing and then processing and remembering the information. Cognitive

learning enables us to create and transmit a complex culture that includes symbols,

values, beliefs and norms because cognitive activity is involved in many aspects of

human behavior.

James Hartley has usefully drawn out some of the key principles of learning, as he puts

it: 'Learning results from inferences, expectations and making connections. Instead

of acquiring habits, learners acquire plans and strategies. The principles he

identifies are:

Instruction should be well-organized: Well-organized materials are easier to learn and

to remember.

Instruction should be clearly structured: Subject matters are said to have natural

structures and logical relationships between key ideas and concepts to link the parts together.

The perceptual features of the task are important the way a problem is displayed is

important if learners are to understand it.

Prior knowledge is important previous learning must fit with what is already

learned.

Differences between individuals are as important as they will affect

learning: Differences in 'cognitive style' or methods of approach influence learning.

3.2. Didactic support

3.2.1. Communicative approach

Richards, J. and T. Rodgers

Defined an approach as “it refers to theories about the nature of language and

language learning that serves as the source of practices and principles in languages

teaching”, In order to explain Communicative Language Teaching as an approach, it

is necessary to clarify what the language theory is and the language learning theory

that this approach sustain.

The communicative paradigm

Morrow (1979) argued that communicative language testing as well as being

concerned with what the learner knows about the form of the language and about

how to use it appropriately in contexts of use (COMPETENCE), must also deal with

the extent to which the learner is actually able to demonstrate this knowledge in a

meaningful communicative situation (PERFORMANCE). It is held that the

performance tasks candidates are faced with in communicative tests should be

representative of the type of task they might encounter in their own real-life situation

and should correspond to normal language use where an integration of

communicative skills is required with little time to reflect on, or monitor language input

and output.

Language theory

The communicative approach in language teaching starts from a theory of language

as communication. The goal of language teaching is to develop “communicative

competences”. Learning a second language was similarly viewed by proponents of

21

Communicative Language Teaching as acquiring the linguistic means to perform

different kinds of functions.

At the level of language theory, Communicative Language Teaching has a rich

theatrical base. Some of the characteristics of this communicative view of language

follow:

- Language is a system for the expression of meaning.

- The primary function of language is for interaction and communication.

- Language techniques are designed to engage learners in the use of language for

meaningful purposes.

- Activities in which language is used for carrying out meaningful task promote

learning.

- Communicative approach seeks to use authentic resources.

- Errors are a natural part of learning language.

3.2.1.1. Basic Principles for Teachers

- A teacher's main role is a facilitator and monitor rather than leading the

class. In other words, "the guide by the side" and not "the sage on the

stage".

- Lessons are usually topic or theme based, with the target grammar "hidden"

in the context e.g. to say some activities in the past.

- Lessons are built round situations/functions practical and authentic in the

real world e.g. asking for information about students' activities in the past.

- Activities set by the teacher have relevance and purpose to real life

situations

- Students can see the direct benefit of learning. Dialogues are used that

Centre around communicative functions, such as socializing, asking and

giving information about past activities.

- Emphasis on engaging learners in more useful and authentic language

rather than repetitive phrases or grammar patterns.

- Emphasis on communication and meaning rather than accuracy. Being

understood takes precedence over correct grammar. The fine-tuning of

grammar comes later.

22

3.2.1.2. Basic Principles for Learners

- Learners are often more motivated with this approach as they have an

interesting what is being communicated, as the lesson is topic or theme

based.

- Learners are encouraged to speak and communicate from day one, rather

than just barking out repetitive phrases Learners practice the target

language a number of times, slowly building on accuracy Language is

created by the individual, often through trial and error.

- Learners interact with each other in pairs or groups, to encourage a flow

of language and maximize the percentage of talking time, rather than just

teacher to student and vice versa.

- Unless the focus is on the accuracy stage of the lesson, learners are

corrected at the end of an activity so as not to interrupt their thought

process.

3.2.1.3. Characteristics of the communicative approach

Although no single methodology has been described for the communicative

approach, several characteristics are summarized as follow.

- Communicative approach stimulates 'real life' communicative

experiences:

Froese V in his book named as 'Introduction to whole language teaching

and learning' (1991) mentioned this characteristics of communicative

approach. Learners should conduct an interview because they actually

need information. In role playing process, the purpose is to learn how to

formulate appropriate questions. But here, as Froese V noted these

activities should not only stimulate real life experiences but, whenever

possible, should actually be real life experiences.

- The learning task is content-based, theme-based, and project-based

or some combination of the three:

Instruction in listening and speaking, as well as reading and writing, is

given within the context of handling various learning tasks, which involve

learners with language. This learning task is content based according to

Early M & Tang M as described in their book named as Helping ESL

students cope with content -based text (1991), 'theme-based' according

to Candling C & Edelhoff C as described in their book Challenges (1982)

and 'project based' according to Fned-Booth D as described in the book

'Project Work' (1986). Within the context of an interview, questioning skills

can be taught. Students need the opportunity to express themselves

through a variety of experiences and tasks.

3.2.2. Techniques

3.2.2.1. Showing pictures

Pictures are the most useful visual aids available to the teacher. They can

result a good way to engaged to the learners with new situations or

vocabulary and practice many aspects of the language.

3.2.2.2. Asking questions.

This technique helps the teacher to control the class. It also helps to keep

the attention of the whole class. Asking questions give good students a

chance to show their knowledge, and give weak or shy students a chance to

answer.

3.2.2.3. Giving and following instructions

This is a simple but valuable communicative activity. This is the use of the

language at work.

3.2.2.4. Checking

Teacher is circulating or guiding the correction of student’s work, providing

feedback.

The teacher will ask questions randomly to give the opportunity to

everybody.

During the whole class, the teacher gives instructions for the

activities. For example, the teacher explains what they have to do

with the work material given.

When the teacher shows different visual aids about the topic. For

example, when the teacher presents health problems, explains the

new vocabulary.

These visual aids are good way to engage to the students

3.2.2.5. Team work

It helps to develop skills of communication and listening, problem solving,

decision-making and critical thinking.

3.2.3. Teaching aids

Teaching aids are helpful tools for teaching in a classroom or with individual learners.

Teacher can use them to:

- Help learners to improve reading and other skills.

- Illustrate or reinforce a skill, fact or idea.

- Relieve anxiety, fears or boredom, since many teaching aids like games.

3.2.3.1. Teacher’s voice

The teacher’s voice is an important teaching aid. One of the first

requirements of good teaching is good voice projection. The teacher needs

to be heard by all the students.

3.2.3.2. Body language

The use of hands, arms, face and any part of the body can effectively in

several ways helps the students to understand.

3.2.3.3. Worksheets

Worksheets allow teachers to measure the students’ learning. A work

material can contain different kind of exercises according to the content of

the lesson.

When the teacher walks around the class helping them if they

have some doubts and have to do some tasks.

During the class, the teacher uses her voice to give instructions.

When the teacher tries to explain something that the students do

not understand, using her hands and face. For example, when the

teacher uses her body language during the class to make students

understand the instructions.

The teacher gives them a work material according to the lesson

and that allows the students to reinforce what they have learned.

The students will work in group in order to put in practice what

they have understood during the class.

3.2.3.6. Roulette game

An aid helps the teacher to catch the students’ attention in an enjoyable way.

3.3. Evaluation

3.3.1. The formative evaluation

Formative evaluation is a method of judging the work of students while they are doing

different activities. Formative evaluation focuses on the process. The purpose of

formative evaluation is to validate or ensure that the goals are being achieved and to

identify the difficulties of the learning.

The teacher uses the board to project some slides related to the

topic.

The teacher uses this substance to stick on a piece of paper the

formal and informal expressions.

The teacher gives productive suggestions on how to solve problems that

may occur while they are working in class assignments. For example,

with worksheet and activities.

The teacher uses the roulette to make the students participate in

class. When the teacher choose a representative to spin the

roulette to know the advice they will give.
