LESSON 15 WHAT SHOULD JHON DO?
Teaching Materials for "How Much," "How Often," and "How Long"
1. Introduction to Question Words
Objective: Understand the meaning and usage of "How Much," "How Often," and "How Long."
Materials Needed:
- Flashcards with question words ("How Much," "How Often," "How Long")
- Real-life objects (e.g., coins, fruits, clocks)
- Pictures depicting different scenarios (e.g., shopping, exercising, daily routines)
- Whiteboard and markers for explanations
Content:
- How Much: Used to ask about quantity (uncountable nouns) or price.
- How Often: Used to inquire about frequency.
- How Long: Used to ask about duration or length of time.
2. Teaching "How Much"
- Objective: Be able to use "How Much" to ask about quantity and price.
- Activities:
- Shopping Role-Play: Set up a small shop in the classroom with items labeled with prices. Students ask, “How much is this?” or “How much are these apples?” to practice asking about prices.
- Counting Uncountable Nouns: Use real objects or pictures (e.g., milk, sugar, water) and ask students questions like “How much milk do we have?” Encourage responses such as “A lot,” “A little,” or specific quantities using measuring tools.
- Worksheet Activity: Provide worksheets with pictures of items and blank price tags. Students fill in the blanks by asking and answering “How much?”
3. Teaching "How Often"
- Objective: Be able to use "How Often" to ask about the frequency of activities or events.
- Activities:
- Daily Routine Discussion: Ask students to share their daily routines. For example, “How often do you brush your teeth?” Answers could be “twice a day,” “every morning,” etc.
- Frequency Adverbs Flashcards: Introduce words like “always,” “often,” “sometimes,” “rarely,” and “never.” Ask students to match activities with these frequency adverbs (e.g., “How often do you exercise?” – “Often”).
- Survey Activity: Give students a survey to fill out about their classmates' habits. Questions could include “How often do you watch TV?” and “How often do you eat vegetables?” Students can practice using and answering with frequency adverbs.
4. Teaching "How Long"
- Objective: Be able to use "How Long" to ask about the duration of activities or events.
- Activities:
- Time Calculation: Use a clock or timer to measure how long it takes to complete a simple task (e.g., writing a sentence, walking around the classroom). Ask questions like “How long did it take you to finish?”
- Movie or Event Discussions: Talk about movies or events and ask, “How long is the movie?” or “How long was the concert?”
- Worksheet on Duration: Provide a worksheet with different activities (e.g., playing soccer, reading a book) and ask students to estimate or write down how long each activity takes (e.g., “It takes 30 minutes to play soccer”).
5. Practice and Application Activities
- Objective: Reinforce understanding of "How Much," "How Often," and "How Long" through practical exercises.
- Activities:
- Matching Game: Create a set of cards with activities and another set with suitable responses. Students match questions with the appropriate answers (e.g., “How often do you eat breakfast?” – “Every day”).
- Group Discussion: Divide students into small groups and give them different scenarios. Each group should come up with a list of questions using "How Much," "How Often," and "How Long" relevant to their scenario.
- Role-Playing Conversations: Students role-play different real-life situations like a conversation with a doctor, shopping, or planning a trip, incorporating all three question types.
6. Assessment and Practice
- Objective: Evaluate students' understanding and usage of "How Much," "How Often," and "How Long."
- Activities:
- Quiz: Conduct a short quiz with multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank questions using all three question types.
- Oral Practice: Ask students to prepare questions for a classmate using each of the question words and practice asking and answering them in pairs.
- Listening Exercise: Play a recorded conversation or reading passage where these question types are used. Students have to note down the questions and the corresponding answers.
Tips for Teaching "How Much," "How Often," and "How Long"
- Use Real-Life Scenarios: Relate the questions to students' daily experiences for better understanding.
- Visual Aids: Use pictures, real objects, and flashcards to visually demonstrate concepts.
- Repetition and Practice: Regularly practice asking and answering these questions in different contexts.
- Interactive Learning: Engage students through role-plays, group discussions, and interactive activities.
- Feedback and Correction: Provide immediate feedback on students' usage and correct mistakes constructively.
Summary
Teaching "How Much," "How Often," and "How Long" involves introducing the concepts through simple explanations, reinforcing through interactive activities, and assessing understanding through quizzes and practical exercises. Using real-life examples, visual aids, and engaging exercises helps students grasp and apply these question forms effectively.
