This lesson plan aligns with the national ESL curriculum by focusing on basic conversational skills, vocabulary development, and interactive learning to enhance language proficiency.
Students will draw a picture of their country or a significant landmark from their country. The teacher will collect the homework for review without asking any students to present it in front of the class.
Post-lesson, the teacher should assess students’ engagement and understanding through observation and the collected homework drawings. Adjust future lessons as necessary based on insights gained.
