Lesson Activities by Day
|
|
- 1Learners will recall key vocabulary from Akan listening contexts and identify main ideas they have heard before
- 2Ask learners: Ɛdeɛn na woakae nnɛ? (What did you hear yesterday?) Learners whisper their answer to their partner, then one learner from the back row volunteers to share aloud one thing they heard
|
- LISTEN AND IDENTIFY KEY POINTS FROM A TEXT
- 1Use the audio recordings from the TLR pack. Play the story 'Abena ne ne maame wɔ ɔdan' (Abena and her mother at home) twice. First listening: learners sit silently and listen for the main character's name. Second listening: learners write down in their exercise books one action they heard (e.g., 'Abena dii apom' – Abena ate bread). Invite a learner who found this easy to share their sentence aloud; check pronunciation together
- 2Learners pair up and take turns explaining to their partner what happened in the story using simple Akan sentences. Circulate and listen to two pairs, correcting any mispronunciation of key words like 'dii' (ate), 'kɔɔ' (went), 'buae' (opened). Differentiation: Struggling learners work with the teacher to identify just two key words from the story and practise saying them three times each
- 3Struggling learners: provide picture cards showing the story events so they can point and say one word for each picture. Fast finishers: ask them to sequence three events from the story in order and whisper the sequence to a partner.

|
- 1Pose the question in Akan: Wo nim sɛ, Abena yɛɛ adeɛ bɔɔ enti? (Why did Abena do that?) Learners show fingers 1–5 to rate their confidence in understanding the story. Repeat the key sentence from the recording together three times chorally
- 2Pairs compare their written points from the textbook exercise with another pair sitting nearby. Ask volunteers to read one key point they wrote. Praise accurate listening and correct pronunciation naturally
Exercise
- 1Listen to the short audio clip again. Write down in Akan one thing Abena did and one thing she said (e.g., 'Abena buae ɔdan' and 'Abena kaa ɛ.'. Learners complete one sentence in their exercise books
