Observation of lesson (children aged: 4)

The class began with a song. The teacher then checked the attendance list and chose one student to count in English how many children there were. Then the teacher asked the students what foods they remembered. The children mentioned the names - apple, salad, chocolate cake, fish, etc. The teacher spread flashcards showing the foods on the carpet. He suggested an activity related to shopping at the store. The children were asked to act out a scene from the store. The teacher was the seller and the students were the customers. The conversation in the store was to go as follows:

Student: "Hello"

Teacher: "What would you like?

Student: "Can I have to (...)?"

Teacher: "Yes, it costs two zlotys."

Student: passes two blocks (blocks=money)

Teacher: "Thank you."

Student: "Thank you."

In the middle of the activity, the teacher suggested that whoever wants to come to the store must sing a song. The students sang a song they know.

This activity was very interesting. The students had the opportunity to repeat the vocabulary of food, and also to improve their counting - the children had to count blocks (money) to pay for their purchases. However, in my opinion, it was too difficult for four-year-old children. They did not say the whole phrases the teacher expected "Can I have to...", but only single words: chocolate cake, orange juice, etc. The teacher had to correct the children each time. In addition, there were a lot of products in the store making children who were already there or waiting for their turn impatient, talking to each other or busy with something else.
