Title - How old are you?
By - Abigail Talley
Primary Subject - Language Arts
Secondary Subjects -
Grade Level - 5-9

Description:
  • This is a spoken language exercise in asking and telling age that will get all of your students on their feet!
Objectives/Goals:
  • Students will be able to orally ask and tell age in the target language.
  • Students will be able to comprehend numbers and language structures when spoken in the target language.
Materials:
  • A set of cards - These cards need to be numbered 1-30.
    (Adapt this number to your number of students.)
Description:
    This lesson is to be used after asking and telling age in the target language has been presented to the class. It can be used as a review or as an activity to reinforce the language.

    The first step is to randomly give your students numbers to represent the age that they are supposed to be (if you have a large class you may want to have two sets). Then the person who is one year old will start off. They will say, "I am one year old, who is two years old?" Then, whoever has the 2 card will stand up and say, "I am two years old, who is three years old?" You go through the class once, and then repeat and challenge the students to get faster and faster. It is also a good idea after the second time to switch up the numbers.
Assessment:
    To assess this activity, I check for participation and effort during the activity. Then, at the end of class, they receive an exit ticket. On the ticket they have to tell you how old they are and ask you how old you are.
