re is a sample lesson plan for teaching listening and talking skills in a language class, aligned with the Scottish curriculum for First level students. The desired outcome of this lesson is for students to actively participate in daily routines by responding to simple instructions accompanied by gestures and expressions.

Topic: Listening and Talking - Daily Routines Level: First level (Primary 1-3) Curriculum Area: Languages

Learning Outcomes: By the end of this lesson, students will be able to: 1. Listen and respond to simple instructions related to daily routines. 2. Use appropriate gestures and expressions to communicate their understanding. 3. Participate actively in daily routines by following instructions.

Resources: - Picture cards or flashcards depicting daily routines (e.g., brushing teeth, washing hands, eating breakfast, etc.) - Visual aids (e.g., posters, charts) displaying key vocabulary related to daily routines. - Whiteboard or blackboard and markers. - Timer or stopwatch.

Introduction (10 minutes): 1. Greet the students and establish a positive learning environment. 2. Review previous lessons on daily routines and related vocabulary. 3. Introduce the learning outcomes for the lesson.

Main Activities:

Activity 1: Listening and Responding (15 minutes): 1. Display the picture cards or flashcards depicting daily routines. 2. Model and explain simple instructions related to each routine, using gestures and expressions. 3. Ask students to listen carefully and respond to the instructions by performing the corresponding action. 4. Repeat the instructions as necessary, providing support and encouragement. 5. Provide opportunities for students to take turns giving instructions to their peers.

Activity 2: Role Play (20 minutes): 1. Divide the class into pairs or small groups. 2. Assign each group a daily routine scenario (e.g., getting ready for school, having lunch, etc.). 3. Provide the groups with visual aids displaying key vocabulary related to their assigned scenario. 4. Instruct the students to take turns acting out the routine, using appropriate gestures and expressions. 5. Encourage students to use the vocabulary and phrases they have learned to communicate during the role play. 6. Monitor and provide feedback to each group, highlighting their strengths and areas for improvement.

Activity 3: Daily Routine Challenge (15 minutes): 1. Display a visual aid or list of daily routines on the board. 2. Set a timer or stopwatch for a specific duration (e.g., 2 minutes). 3. Instruct the students to listen carefully as you call out a daily routine from the list. 4. Challenge the students to perform the corresponding action within the given time limit. 5. Repeat the activity, gradually reducing the time limit to increase the level of difficulty. 6. Provide positive reinforcement and praise for students who successfully complete the challenge.

Conclusion (5 minutes): 1. Recap the key vocabulary and phrases related to daily routines. 2. Review the learning outcomes and ask students to reflect on their progress. 3. Assign a small task or homework related to daily routines to reinforce the lesson content.

Assessment: - Observe students’ active participation and engagement during the activities. - Assess students’ ability to listen and respond to instructions accurately. - Evaluate students’ use of appropriate gestures and expressions to communicate their understanding. - Review students’ performance during the role play activity and provide constructive feedback.

Extension Activities: - Encourage students to create their own daily routine scenarios and act them out in pairs or groups. - Provide additional vocabulary and phrases related to daily routines for students to practice and expand their language skills. - Incorporate technology by using interactive language learning apps or websites to reinforce listening and speaking skills related to daily routines.
