(Section A 1a-1c)
Grade level: 7th grade
Objectives:
Students will be able to ask and answer questions about the location of places using "Is there a...near here "
Students will be able to give directions using prepositions of place.
Materials:
Map of the local area
Pictures of different places (e.g. post office, bank, supermarket)
Flashcards with prepositions of place
Whiteboard and markers
Handouts with questions and answers about locations
Warm-up:
Display pictures of different places on the board and ask students to name each one. Then, ask students to describe how to get to one of these places from the school.
Presentation:
Introduce vocabulary related to places in the local area using flashcards. Show each flashcard and ask students to repeat after you. Go through each card several times until students are comfortable with the pronunciation.
Use the map to point out different places and ask students to guess what each one is (e.g. "What's this building "). Then, ask questions such as "Is there a post office near here " and have students answer using "Yes, there is" or "No, there isn't".
Introduce prepositions of place using flashcards and have students practice using them in context. For example, "The bank is next to the post office" or "The supermarket is across from the park."
Practice:
Have students work in pairs to ask and answer questions about the location of different places in the local area. Encourage them to use complete sentences and prepositions of place.
Distribute handouts with questions and answers about locations and have students match them up.
Production:
Ask students to give directions from the school to a particular place using prepositions of place. For example, "Go straight ahead for two blocks, then turn left at the post office. The bank is next to the post office."
Have a few students share their directions with the class.
Assessment:
Observe students during the practice and production stages to assess their ability to use location vocabulary and prepositions of place accurately. The written matching activity can also be assessed for accuracy.
Extension:
Have students create a map of their local area and label different places using the vocabulary learned in class.
Play a game where students take turns giving directions to a particular place and the other students have to guess what place they are talking about.
Have students research a famous landmark in their city or country and create a poster or presentation about it, including information about its location and history.
For homework, students can be assigned the following tasks:
Write a paragraph about a place they visited recently, including its location, what they did there, and their overall experience.
Create a map of their neighborhood or town, labeling different places and using prepositions of place to describe their location.
Practice giving directions to different places from the school to a family member or friend.
Research a famous landmark in a city or country and write a short report about it, including information about its location and history.
Watch a video or read an article about a city or town and take note of the different places mentioned. Then, write a paragraph about which places they would like to visit and why.
