A ready-to-teach in the garden lesson built on the five-block structure: land & warm, teach, play, produce, land. Every link below opens with this topic already loaded β the plan runs from one browser tab.
Before the lesson (1 minute)
- Open the in the garden topic page in a tab β the word wall doubles as your flashcards and pronunciation guide.
- Offline or with a printer: print the flashcards sheet. Two items maximum on the child's desk.
Warm-up (0β3 min)
The fixed opening: wave + name + hello song. Then thirty seconds of topic TPR: "Show me a sunflower! Now be a rose!" β bodies first, words after.
Teach: six words (3β9 min)
- π» sunflower (ΠΏΠΎΠ΄ΡΠΎΠ»Π½ΡΡ ) β show, say, echo in a silly voice, tap the card to hear it.
- πΉ rose (ΡΠΎΠ·Π°) β show, say, echo in a silly voice, tap the card to hear it.
- π· tulip (ΡΡΠ»ΡΠΏΠ°Π½) β show, say, echo in a silly voice, tap the card to hear it.
- πΌ daisy (ΡΠΎΠΌΠ°ΡΠΊΠ°) β show, say, echo in a silly voice, tap the card to hear it.
- π bouquet (Π±ΡΠΊΠ΅Ρ) β show, say, echo in a silly voice, tap the card to hear it.
- π΅ cactus (ΠΊΠ°ΠΊΡΡΡ) β show, say, echo in a silly voice, tap the card to hear it.
Play (9β17 min)
Main game on today's words β Memory in pictureβword mode (say every card aloud), or Bingo if the child likes hunting. One game played twice beats two games played once.
Produce (17β22 min)
- Personal questions with today's words: "Do YOU like the sunflower? Which one is big? Which is your favourite?"
- Or spin Name 3 β when the cube lands anywhere near today's theme, watch the recall fireworks.
Land (22β25 min)
- The suitcase: 'What are you taking home?' β each child packs one word.
- A star on the chart, the fixed goodbye song, camera wave.
β Take this with you
