III. PROCEDURE
A. Motivation
To review the farm animal names, play an action game. The students
should stand up behind their desks. The teacher shouts out a farm animal
name and the students must do the actions for that animal.

B. Explicit Instruction/Teacher modeling

The teacher draws the students’ attention to the animal pictures
on the board and points to one of the pictures and encourage all of the
students to say the correct name together. The teacher can confirm the
name afterwards, for students who need to model you. Repeat this a few
times. (2 minutes)
Now switch the game around. This time, the teacher should say an
animal name and choose one student to come up to the board and point
to the correct animal picture. All of the students then repeat the word.
Then the student at the front says an animal name and chooses someone
else to point to it on the board. Repeat this a few times, too. (3 minutes)
Now, the teacher introduces the animal sounds and their written form
on the board. Have students repeat them a few times and put the picture
flash cards randomly placed on the left side of the board and the animal
sounds flash cards on the right. Ask for volunteers to come up one at a
 time and match the animals and the animal sounds. (2 minutes)
Lastly, play the song ‘Old MacDonald had a Farm’ and have the
students listen carefully. When it’s finished ask them what they heard.
Play the song again, line by line, so the students can listen carefully to the
words and repeat them. (7 minutes)

C. Guided Practice
The teacher lets the students play a game. Students need to be in
groups for this game. Each group gets a set of animal pictures and animal
sound words. Play the song, and the groups must arrange the animals
and sounds in the correct order of when they’re heard in the song. The
teacher might have to play the song a few times for the students to get
everything. Go through the answers. (8 minutes). Encourage the students
to sing along, using their flash cards as prompts. If they find it difficult to
sing the full sentences, they can just sing the animals names and sounds.
Play the song 2 or 3 times to give the students lots of practice. (7 minutes)

D. Enrichment:
Every student gets a bingo grid. They should fill in the grid with
the farm animal and animal sounds vocabulary they have just learnt. If
they can’t write the animal words, they can draw a picture in each square.
When they have finished you call out one word at a time. If a student has
that word, they cross it out on their grid. When a student has one, two or
three lines crossed off they shout “Bingo!” They are the winner. An
alternative to the teacher calling out the words, they can pick students to
say them. (10 minutes)

IV. EVALUATION: Draw a line to match the farm animals.

V. ASSIGNMENT
Let the students do another matching type of test for farm animals.
