Story
RIRIN’S BIRTHDAY PARTY
Yesterday is Ririn’s birthday. She has a birthday party in her house. I come to her house.
Knock. Knock. Knock. I knock at her door.
Then Ririn opens the door.
There she is! She wears a red dress. She is very pretty.
I say “Good afternoon. Happy birthday, Ririn!”
“Thank you. What do you think about my dress?,” says Ririn.
“The dress looks beautiful,” I say.
“Well, thanks again. Please come in,” says Ririn.
Then I walk into her house. The party is full with decoration.
“What do you think about the decoration?” asks Ririn.
“The decoration looks nice. Wow! And you have so many balloons too. The balloons look colorful,” I say.
“Yes, they do. Oh look, I have flowers too over here. What do you think about the flowers?”
“The flowers smell good,”
“Wait a minute. Now it’s time to slice the cake,” says Ririn.
Everybody sings “Birthday Song” when Ririn slices the cake. The song sounds good.
Then Ririn gives me a slice of her birthday cake. Hmmm, the cake tastes sweet!
“After you eat the cake, please go over there to take the food and the drink.” says Ririn.
Now it’s time for me to eat. I take some food on my plate. I eat it. I also take a glass of syrup.
“My mother cooks all the food. What do you think about the food?” asks Ririn.
“The food tastes delicious. And the syrup, oh, the syrup feels fresh!”
“Oh yeah. Look at this, birthday present from my Father! What do you think about the present?”
“Whoa… the present looks big. Your father is so kind, Ririn,” I say.
“Thank you. And thank you for coming to my party today. I am so happy,” says Ririn.

  1. Hello friends I am Hikmah Nur insani, I think the topic of your lesson plan is interesting . I want to comment some points here. Since the learners are elementary school, so that I'll be in young learners point of view.
    1. The learning objectives are simple and can be reached by the students.

    2.The point 7, 8 ,9 should be re-arrange. It should be 8,9,7 because after the teacher shows some pictures then asks student's opinion, it will be confused. According to Didi Suherdi(2010) in classroom discourse analysis, there will be irrelevant response and teacher should rephrase or gives new clues to make the students understand.

    3. In point 10 and 11, I think, there is no connection between those activities. There will be a defective exchange because there is no contribution from the secondary knower. I think that after teacher selivers the story, she or he can re-check whether the students understand or not about the story. For instance, teacher can give questions according to the story.

    4. The idea to draw students' bitrhday party is good. It will be better if the students just not drawing but the students can mention all of things in the draw according to the learning objectives that could mention of nouns in birthday party. For example, students put the name of nouns in the draw.

    5. Relevant with the scaffolding , I think activities 21,22,23 are not important because it just 60 minutes. The three activities before are enough to make students understand about giving complemetn. So, think about it.

    Last, I just want to share my ideas about this lesson plan. As a teacher, we need to share each other. Keep spirit in teaching young learners! :)

  3. overall, your group's lesson plan is better. in the story, for instance, you made an improvement in giving dialogue. so that the use of the expression can be seen, and it can be a tool for you to teach that expressions instead of only giving naration.
    however, we still found some weaknesses of your lesson plan. first of all, your activities are just too vary. it'll take more time. besides, it will make the students getting confused.
    In addition, I agree with Hikmah said in point 3 that when the teacher had delivered the story there is no follow up to check whether the students understand or not with the story. perhaps you can give them some questions related to the story before the teacher ask them to imagine their own birthday party.
    Secondly, the evaluation should be changed in term of question form.it is due to in your activity you input several dialogue especially in the story. we think that it will be better if the form of the questions are adjusted to the dialogue. Therefore the students don't get more difficulties to do the test.

  4. Well, as far as I can tell, this lesson plan is well-formed and child-friendly where the teacher slowly raise the motivation of the students and then involve them, as suggested by Cameron about the learner-centred teaching that places the child at the center of teacher thinking (Cameron, 2001), in the activity since the beginning by using chain-question. This lesson plan also shows a well-served learning style by facilitating the “visual” students by presenting pictures and also triggers their imagination with the birthday party thing then facilitating the "kinesthetic" students by asking them to draw their own birthday party [card?].
    After that, the activity where teacher invites students to present their drawing is a really good thing since, as Cameron (2001) said, young learners are active learners, who will find a meaning and purpose for activities that are presented to them . And also, I really like how you come up with the Evaluation test, which I think is really well-formed and easy to understand by the students. :)
    Maybe one thing that I want to confirm about, that is about the second learning objectives that said "...students are expected to be able to give example at least 5 nouns that might be found in a party in English spoken form correctly. (Cake, gift, dress, flowers, food)", what that this means and how we, as the teachers, can make the students do that?

    Best Regards,
