Class description: There are 17 students in 5th D (2 girls, and 15 boys) and 16 students in 5th C (7 girls and 11 boys), all between ten and eleven years old. They have English classes twice a week on Mondays and Fridays, each lesson lasts 40 minutes. Most of them have been studying English for 1 year (this being the second year). On Mondays, 5thC have classes at 16:10 (after the break) until 16:50; they usually are full of energy and excited. 5th D has classes from 16.50 to 17.30, as it is the last module they are usually tired and distracted because they want to go home.

Main aim(s): To identify and remember some of the places in town and what kind of food they can buy in them. To practice listening macro-skill by playing a bingo and reading macro-skill by reading statements in order to complete an activity.

Subsidiary aim(s):         1. Revise the use of there is/ there are for identifying the number of places on the poster.         2. Introduce the topic through the use of flashcards and posters related to the topic.

Personal aim(s): I will ask the students where they can buy different kinds of food so that they can infer it from the poster pasted on the blackboard.

Timetable fit: In the last lessons, the students have studied there is/ there are related to insects. In this lesson, I am going to introduce a new topic while using and reinforcing this grammatical aspect.

Language: - Vocabulary places in town (Market, cinema, Internet café, bank, grocery, butchers, supermarket, etc.) and food -  Present Simple: I/ She/ He like/s- don’t/doesn’t like. -There is/ there are
