the example of lesson plan "Present Continuous Tense"

Skill Discussed: Speaking       

 (I choose speaking as a skill discussed on this teaching in order to make my students be able on speaking English, especially they can tell about what is happening to them and what is happening to the others)

Topic     : “What is doing?”
    ( It relates to “Present Continuous Tense” and “positive sentence only” )

Method of teaching    : Presentation, Practice and Production (PPP)
              I choose PPP as the method of my teaching where I am going to explain the material first by showing picture, video and power point and I am going to ask the students about what someone is doing in the picture and the video then finally the students are going to use the language by describing the picture and guessing what their friends are doing in front of the class. The reason why I choose “Presentation, Practice and Production (PPP)” as the method of my teaching is because I wish my students will be able to use the language in a correct way and they need me as a tutor to help them on learning the language and using the language.
