Today’s lesson was on family members and birthdays. My PowerPoint showed parents, siblings and grandparents with their correct labels and shorten versions. For example, mother/mom and grandfather/grandpa. I also taught him the words little and big when referring to sister and brother. For the birthday portion of my lesson, I played him the birthday song. We also worked on a worksheet about birthdays. It had sample dialogue of a teacher asking students when their birthday was. I asked Je-won to listen as I read it aloud. The worksheet has a chart that briefly introduced him to ordinal numbers. He had trouble pronouncing the “th” sound, so I had him focus on listening to my pronunciation. When working on birthdates, I allowed him to say the cardinal numbers when he couldn’t remember the ordinal numbers but reminded him that we use ordinal numbers what stating our birthdates. We did more practice with the months of the year. For example, the worksheet says that Mina’s birthday is on 07/12 (I always remind him of the format mm/dd) and it would ask to write the correct month and day. After lots on support, he was able to identify many correct answers on his own, which I though was wonderful!
