Introduction
(2 mins)
Hey there, fifth-grade English students! Today, we are diving into how we ask about personal information. We will start with a chat, talk about new words, do some fun tasks, watch a cool video, and then try out what we have learned in role-plays.
During this class, you as a student will:
- enrich your vocabulary with new words,
- learn about grammar related to WH-questions,
- practice reading, comprehension, and writing.
So, let's make learning awesome!

Evaluation
(5 mins)
Students will be assessed based on each activity. During this class, you are expected to reach up to 20 points in total.
The first activity, which is worth 5 points, will assess the reading skills of the students. The second activity will evaluate their ability to connect questions with corresponding answers; this activity has a total of 5 points. The other activity has a total of 10 points, as students will be assessed for their skills in both writing and acting.
Based on the points you have accumulated, your performance is evaluated in the following manner:
- Not good (0-10 points): This level suggests that there is a need for improvement.
- Good (11-15 points): This level indicates a solid performance.
- Excellent (16-20 points): This level reflects an outstanding performance.
