Language Analysis: Skills Lesson- Vocabulary

When doing CELTA, part of the lesson plan that you have to complete is a language analysis. The structure of this differs depending on whether you are teaching a skills lesson (vocabulary analysis), a grammar lesson (analysis of the grammar) or a functional skills lesson. 

The aim of the language analysis is to identify any potential difficulties the students might have and to plan how you will avoid these issues.

Here is a short example of a vocabulary language analysis:

Words or phrases and what type of speech

How you will show the meaning and check it

Pronunciation, stress and any issues

Problems the Ss might have with meaning, pronunciation or form and how to tackle them

Recipe (noun)

Show a recipe

Say each step

CCQs

         O

/ˈresəpi/

P1: Ss might pronounce the i as an ɪ sound

S1: Show the phonetic structure on the board and drill pronunciation

P2: Ss might not pronounce the ‘I’ sound at the end

S2: Show the stress on the board and drill pronunciation
