Goal

Students or beginners will learn to learn to recognize numbers 1-10 while only hearing them in lekwungen before reading them in the lekwungen phonetic alphabet.

Learning Objectives

Learning Objectives should be SMART: Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Time-based.

  • Begin learning how to pronounce numbers 1-10 by listening instead of reading (no lekwungen language writing).
  • Participate in learning by the repetitiveness of order.
  • Develop a listening ear through the different sounds each word makes.
  • Advance in pronunciation skills. 
  • Connect the curriculum they do know (#1-10) to lewungen. Example: 1= nətsə)

By the end of the lesson, learners will be able to:

  • Upon prompting and guidance, be able to differentiate numbers 1-10.
  • With prompts and some visual flash cards are able to answer/repeat numbers in non subsequent order.
  • Able to repeat language words after mentor.
Prior Knowledge and Learner Profile

The learners are all beginner level at any age but targeted to K/1 that I would like to teach. Learning takes place in a classroom setting. Learners will not learn the lekwungen alphabet until they can hear the sounds orally.

  • Learners will need to learn or already know their visual numbers 1-10.
  • Learners will need to become familiar with certain sounds/pronunciation.
Delivery
  1. Beginning/Introduction: Identifying which children/new learners can identify visually numbers 1-10.
  2. Write numbers 1-10. Teacher and TA can distribute worksheets.
  3. Flashcards introducing orally the lekwungen language (no lekwungen alphabet phonetic)
  4. Teach lekwungen 1-10 with receptiveness from learners.
  5. Have students identify number in lekwungen with confirmation from teacher.

Evaluation

Repeat until students can identify all ten lekwungen words/numbers.
