PREPARE TO WATCH 

Get students’ attention Here are some ideas to introduce the lesson points. 

See the How-to Guide for more ways to do this.

 • Introduce key words and questions: Who? Who are you? Who am I?

 • Bring a puppet, picture, or stuffed animal to class. Ask: “Who is this/he/she?” Students can give names and practice repeating the question and answer.

 • Show pictures of famous people or characters you think students may know and ask, “Who is he/she?”

 • Say words that rhyme with who: hoo, moo, zoo Connect to students’ experiences This can be done in native language or English.

 • Tell students the goals for the lesson. Then ask (choose as needed):

 • “How do you introduce yourself in English? In your native language?”

 • “Where do you like to take walks?” (in the city, in the woods, in your neighborhood…)

 • “How do you feel when you walk outside?”

LESSON 1 WELCOME!

Introduce the Lesson 

Topic Explain the story of the course: 

Say, “Anna is moving to a new city, Washington, D.C. She will learn many new things about the city, and you will learn with her. 

In the first lesson, she is meeting her new neighbors.” Ask students to share stories (in native languages, if possible) about when they moved to a new place.

 Present the Conversation 

Tell students that the video will show Anna going to her new apartment. She meets new people there. 

Play the main video. When the speakers say, “Listen” and “Speak” have students repeat and respond. 

DÍA 1

Ask students to act out the conversation with different students two or more times. 

They should use their own names (rather than Anna and Pete). 

This is a good chance for students who are in a new class to get to know each other’s names.

 Learning Strategy Ask students to set a goal for learning English.

 Ask, “What do you want to do in English after studying for three months?” It is best to set a short-term and small goal.

 Remind them to focus on this goal as they study.
