Handout 4




The topic was interesting for my learners. The activities were suitable for my learners’ capacity.
In the first activity they enjoyed naming the places after saying the definitions. They liked the symbols too which help them to learn new vocabulary.
In the second activity (matching) all the students were involved and they tried to find correct places. They helped each others, and I also helped less confident students to explain again individually some of the public places.
The students did the third activity more quickly and easily. (choose the words from the boxes).
the last activity, assessment activity, was an entertaining activity  for my students, they all drew the symbols on the map and most of them write the sentences on it.
I feel that the lesson plan worked well, there were scaffolding activities and the students step-by-step achieved the objectives at the end of the lesson. The SWBA to draw and identify the symbols with the public places.
The challenges in the lessons were authentic materials (handouts made by myself) adopted to my learner’s needs and they worked well.
