UNIT 3
Lesson Plans
Using the Lesson Plans The goal of the GrapeSEED curriculum is to use natural language acquisition methods to engage students in communication while learning English. Our lesson plans are intended to help teachers deliver engaging lessons that develop increasing levels of comprehension. Each lesson is part of a purposeful, natural progression that is designed to meet specific component objectives. The Class Overview, provided at the beginning of each set of Lesson Plans, shows how instruction flows throughout the unit. The Class Overview shows which components are included in each of the 30 lessons.
The Lesson Plans promote a progression of learning by providing the appropriate number of exposures for each component. Each component has been intentionally woven into the lessons to balance variety and movement with support for comprehension. Lesson Plans are easy to follow and implement. Since the progression of learning builds each day, it is essential to start with Lesson 1 and teach each lesson in order through Lesson 30. Lesson Plans are designed for 40-minute classes. At the beginning of each unit, the actual time listed is approximately 30 minutes to allow time to introduce new content and address classroom management needs. Throughout the unit, teachers should complete the lesson in 40 minutes. Each Component includes approximate time allotments, teaching steps to follow, and information about what to anticipate for student responses.
Questions are used throughout the lessons to engage students. The variety of questions and language used in different contexts helps students learn to use the language in meaningful ways. For this purpose, the lesson plans include a variety of questions that induce different kinds of answers. Repetitive questions that expect language from rote memory do not help students communicate authentically; in fact, such memorized responses can lead to a false sense of language acquisition. Exposure to diverse types of questions encourages creative thinking and different ways of responding. Students are being trained to rapidly form and utilize their ideas in English. Questions are not a test. Student responses help teachers identify the degree of student comprehension and the areas that need more attention. Teachers can use this information to consider how they can more effectively convey the meaning of the language as they
teach. Expect a progression with student responses. In the early stage of a unit, students most likely will not be able to respond to questions. As teachers prepare for the lesson, they will need to think of ways to help students understand the question when the students do not respond. At times this may be as simple as pointing to the picture or using gestures while repeating the question. When students understand and respond with a word or gesture, teachers should be excited and praise the students. After students attempt to respond to a question, model the correct full response for the class. In later lessons of the unit, where students have repeatedly been exposed to the content, encourage students to respond in complete sentences using the language they have learned.

Sample student responses are provided for many of the questions in the Lesson Plans. Answers that are partially or fully underlined may have multiple possible answers, so teachers should allow for a variety of responses. The student response is on the line following the question wherever possible. However, with limited space, the response may be on the same line as the question. Student responses that may need more support are listed as: • Ask, What is big and round? Model, The pumpkin is big and round.
When the recommendation is to “Model,” it is suggested that you pause very briefly and then model the response. Students may or may not repeat the answer after you. • Ask, What is big and round? Help them respond, The pumpkin is big and round. When the recommendation is to “Help them respond,” it is suggested that you wait for student response. Students may answer in full or in part. Encourage their response and help if needed. Things to remember when using questions: • Keep the class positive and relaxed. • Direct questions to the class and allow students to respond spontaneously. • Avoid putting students on the spot or calling on individuals before they appear to be
ready. Transitions are activities which involve students moving during learning. To keep students engaged throughout the lesson, transitions should occur every 5-8 minutes. Every classroom situation will be different, so teachers should plan for how and where the transition will happen. Note: Action Activities are a great form of movement and may take the place of a transition during the lessons. Planning time should be used to review and understand the lesson plan, learn the main objectives, prepare materials, and plan transitions. Follow the steps in the teacher column while keeping in mind the main objective listed in the student column. There is a systematic review built into the curriculum. Do not expect complete mastery or memorization before moving on to the next unit. Mastery and comprehension will continue to build throughout
later units. Key Terms and Abbreviations AA: Action Activity BB: Shared Reading Big Book SD: Story Dictionary VPC: Vocabulary Picture Card PC: Phonogram Card PWC: Phonogram Word Card S-T-S: Student-Teacher-Student T-S: Teacher-Student

Preparing to Teach a Lesson Step 1: Read through the lesson plan to learn the content and flow. • Review the order in which the Components will be taught and their allotted time. • Review the teaching steps for each component in the Teacher column. • Underlined words can be substituted. • Phrases the teachers should say are bold. • Expected student responses are italicized. • Quotation marks indicate the letter (e.g., “s”) . • A slash indicates the specific sound (e.g., /z/). • The Student column notes the objective. Step 2: Review and mentally process the questions. • Note the steps to take for teaching each component (questions to ask, language expressions to model, or details like the pronunciation focus) and write them on post-it notes to place on the back of each teaching card for quick reference during the lesson. • Think about each question being asked and how to help students understand the question if they don’t respond. Step 3: Plan your transitions. • Notice where each transition falls in conjunction with where each component will be taught so that the correct direction may be given (front of the room, corner, on the floor, etc.). • Consider the space needed to complete the Action Activities. Step 4: Plan for extra time at the end of the lesson.
• Lesson plans have bonus component suggestions. Have one or two components prepared to use in case you finish the lesson plan early. Consider using components or Writers that were not completed in prior lessons. Step 5: Gather teaching tools. • Gather the Vocabulary Picture Cards (VPCs) for the lesson using the VPCs Needed list at the top of each lesson. • Gather the Teaching Cards for all Components in the lesson. • In the Related Items column, gather the noted Phonogram Cards (PCs), Phonogram Word Cards (PWCs), and any props needed. Step 6: Organize the materials. • Put teaching materials in the order of the lesson at their designated locations (front, back, corner, etc.) based on planned transitions.
Step 7: Lesson wrap up. • Mark any components that were not completed on the lesson plan. These components may be used when planning for extra time in future lessons. Step 8: Reflection • After teaching the lesson, take time to reflect on the lesson. • Make notes as needed or list questions to discuss with a trainer.
