Though this step seems brief and therefore perhaps unimportant, there is quite a bit of reason as to why teachers should greet students. According to Harmer, teachers should establish a good rapport with the class (2007, p. 25). This will help students feel comfortable and welcomed, which some (such as Krashen) believe allow students to learn better. If students know the teacher cares about them, this will help to intrinsically motivate students. It also lets the students know the teacher is alert and expects them to be as well. The Internet TESL Journal notes that eye contact is also important to establish contact with students, and should be established in this step at the beginning of the lesson. In pairs, Ss discuss questions from the slide with one another. I wanted to start off by asking the students something they could connect with/relate to in their own lives in order to get them interested in what the lesson might be about: Teachers can do their best to ensure that students engage with the topic . . . they are going to be dealing with by asking them to . . . relate classroom materials to their own lives. . . . When students are properly engaged, their involvement in the study and activation stages is likely to be far more pronounced (Harmer, 2007, 52). Discussing in pairs will also be a brief icebreaker to get students in a good mood for the lesson that is to follow (Harmer, 2007, p. 159). The questions they discuss are about concepts implied in the short story they will be reading. Step 2: T tells Ss they will be reading a famous short story. Looking at the ppt picture, Ss discuss PPT questions in pairs (What might this story be about? What do you think the genre is?). If students bring questions into a reading, they will have expectations for answers. Harmer believes that, once expectations are set up, the active process of reading is ready to begin (2007, p. 102). He also suggests predicting content from pictures as an exercise to prime students for said reading process (2007, p. 109). Step 3: T introduces words from the text (visual support via ppt pictures): several pictures are displayed on a slide; ss describe picture in pairs, then T displays vocabulary word on ppt. T uses the word in a sentence, Ss chorally repeat. Pre-teaching or front-loading vocabulary is crucial in setting the students up for successfully reading the story, which is the aim of this activity (and relates to the SLO). If students cannot recognize the vocabulary, they will have difficulty understanding the text. As a first P in a PDP lesson, this stage should provide pre-learning the new and necessary vocabulary to understand the text (What is PDP?, p. 171). This activity sets students up for success in the first during activity. Having students describe the pictures before the new vocabulary is given will do several things, the first two as advocated by page 171 of the article What is PDP?: 1) allow the teacher to get a general idea of how much the students already know/dont know and rough-tune accordingly (assessing students background) 2) have students describe the vocabulary word in their own words with which they are already familiar (bridging known with the unknown by activating schema) 3) set up meaning associations which may be either mnemonic or associations attached to a word [which] will affect the way it is stored in the brain (DeCarrio, 2001, p. 288). For example, students may have described a picture as the man looks wild, he is hairy, he seems violent, the target vocabulary word being barbarian. This activity is done in pairs (instead of in a group or by the teacher) in order to maximize student talking time/interaction. The powerpoint materials were designed while keeping in mind that experienced teachers . . . try to ensure that different learning styles are catered for as often as is possible [by] offering a wide range of different activity types in [their] lessons in order to cater for individual differences and needs (Harmer, 2007, p. 16). Picture support aids all learners, especially visual learners. The target vocabulary is displayed for the same purpose as well as to familiarize students with how the word is spelled and what it looks like. After students have briefly described the picture, the teacher uses the word in a sentence to allow students to hear the new word spoken and used in context. Note: Several of the vocabulary powerpoint slides include notes at the bottom such as Say, Ask the person sitting next to you what makes him or her shudder (shudder being one of the target vocabulary words). The goal of these brief exercises is to allow personal engagement with the vocabulary, which will aid recall (Harmer, 2007, p. 150). It will also help these new words seem more real, relevant, and practical. It also makes the content more learner-centered (What is PDP?, p. 183). Step 4: Ss recall of new vocabulary is tested/solidified through a matching activity. Ss work together in five groups of four to match words with corresponding picture. This activity serves as a comprehension check; students have the opportunity to test their new knowledge. Repetition and multiple encounters with the new content will also help students solidify and remember the information. This activity will also get the class up and walking around as well, which should help to wake the class up, satisfy to some degree kinesthetic learners, and get students in different pairs for the next activity. Groups of four will be a good variation from the usual method of pairs, and will appeal to interpersonal learners. Step 5: Ss skim the text, reading for general, overall meaning. Discuss in pairs: Who are the characters? What is the conflict/problem in the story? According to Harmer, students need to be able to skim a text to get a general idea of what it is about instead of concentrating on details, which could overwhelm them or slow them down (2007, p. 101). Hence, students read for the gist of the tale, not in detail. Also, a PDP lesson should also move from easier, concrete, general main idea questions to more specific, critical-thinking questions (What is PDP?, p. 183). The questions for discussion are very general, and will help students step up to the next, slightly more difficult reading activity. Step 6: Hand out the true-false worksheet. Ss read the text again, this time without skimming. Ss circle new vocabulary they find in the text. What is PDP? states that the purpose of providing learners with many chances to read/listen . . . is to improve their reading/listening skills and help them to comprehend the text (p. 171). The goal of this step is to give students another chance to read the text (this time not skimming), this second time being more in depth. Circling new vocabulary will add incentive to read the text by giving them something to do, another purpose for reading: according to What is PDP?, a good reading lesson gives students an opportunity and reason to read the text more than once (p. 174). The true-false worksheet is distributed before the second reading in order to give students 1) a reason for the second reading 2) specific information to look for (scanning). Scanning is another reading strategy that should be used in reading (Harmer, 2007, Chapter 7). Ss answer t/f questions, circling correct answer. I selected a true-false worksheet where I normally would not because, as a PDP lesson, the focus is on receptive and not productive skills. I also selected true-false because it was listed as a second-step activity in PDP Intro.ppt; it is an appropriate transition to the next, more difficult reading. This part is solowork to allow students to have more individual thinking time (Harmer, 2007, p. 44). In groups of four, Ss check against each others answers. T then displays answers (via ppt) and the Ss check in groups to see if they got the correct answers. According to the What is PDP? checklist, students should first check their answers to a task with their classmates. This also creates a time that the teacher can again monitor how well students understand the text. I chose groups of four to add variation and because true-false questions are not discussion questions in which there is the danger of one person hogging all the talk time. Answers are shown on powerpoint instead of by teacher for time-efficiency purposes as well as maintaining a student-centered lesson. Step 7: Ss read text again. Ss fill in the second half of a sentence worksheet. Discuss in pairs. Another task gives students another purpose for reading the text, and this task is slightly more difficult. Repetition of reading also gives the lesson coherence and reliability (Harmer, 2007, p. 157). Switch partners. Ss summarize the story. This will allow the teacher to assess where the students are as far as comprehension, as well as make students verbalize the main points of what they have just read and compare with peers to make sure theyre on the same page . . . literally. (Its also a way for a student to learn from someone else what he might not have understood before.) Step 8 (Infer Ending): Ss use a graphic organizer to list their ideas & rationale. Mingle. Ss make new groups of 4, and share the ending they inferred. In task sequencing, this is the last step, thus it is also the most abstract/complicated, and it is also the SLO. Inferring an ending is listed by both What is PDP? and PDP Intro.ppt as a comprehensive assessment activity. Its also the most difficult listening task because it requires Ss to use inference and draw conclusion which assess Ss knowledge at the text/discourse level (PDP Intro.ppt). In the case of this story, which has a cliffhanger ending which clearly supposes two possible outcomes, inferring the ending is like a double-SLO because the inferred ending is a debate. The graphic organizer will make students choose which of the two outcomes they think/infer are more likely to occur, then give them space to list the reasons for their choice. The Tomlinson Introduction notes that students feel more comfortable with materials that are visually spacious and not overly complex; I designed the graphic organizer with this in mind. Mingling allows students to speak with other classmates. Groups of four are used so that students will more likely have different inferred endings and therefore more likely to develop a debate. Harmers Reading Principle 3 notes that the message of the text is as important as [the way students use language]. It is especially important that they should be allowed to show their feelings about the topic thus provoking personal engagement with it and the language (2007, p. 101). (IF the infer-ending SLO is too difficult for students to accomplish, the teacher at this stage might return to the first questions asked in the lesson (PPT Slide 1) and have students discuss the text in light of these questions.) Step 9: Ss can freely discuss the text for the remainder of the class period. (They will likely want to. If T notices Ss are not into the topic, s/he may prompt Ss to answer PPT SLIDE #14 in pairs.) This step follows Harmers Reading Principle 3, Encourage students to respond to the content of a text and explore their feelings about it (2007, p. 101). This story was chosen particularly because of its controversial ending and thought-provoking ideas implied within; as Tomlinson notes, It is very important that the content of the materials is not trivial or banal and that it stimulates thoughts and feelings in the learners (p. 20). The debatable inferred ending will challenge students to think and persuade. This step gives them the opportunity to examine the content instead of language functions/specific grammar/vocab, etc. The post step is often referred to as the icing on the cake for the personal engagement and application it prompts; the discussion question will accomplish this. I also aim by this debate to help students develop self-confidence which, according to Tomlinson, is aided in activities [that] encourage learners to . . . [be] imaginative, creative, or analytical (p. 9). In creating the powerpoint material, effort was made to: Include several cultural references (i.e., Luffy, a character from an anime) in order to help students remember and to personalize the new vocabulary. According to the Tomlinson Introduction, students are more at ease with texts and illustrations that they can relate to their own culture (p. 8). Use the active rather than the passive voice, which also helps students learn better, in Tomlinsons opinion. Include different forms of the new vocabulary in the slide notes for the teacher to read (i.e., lurk, lurking, lurked, etc) in order to inductively introduce word families through related word forms in the teachers speech (DeCarrio, p. 287). Select visual support pictures that promote connotations associated with the new vocabulary. For example, dark backgrounds for pictures that demonstrate lurking and bright, cheery colors for admiration; using dramatic realistic pictures for barbarian instead of goofy clip-art Works Cited Harmer, Jeremy.
