━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Students will identify basic locations and the cardinal points through meaningful and collaborative activities, using simple English vocabulary to describe where places are and how to locate them in space.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧠💬 ACTIVATION OF PRIOR KNOWLEDGE 💬🧠
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The teacher asks students simple questions while pointing around the classroom, such as:
-
Where is the door?
-
Where is the board?
Students answer using gestures or simple words, helping them connect daily spaces with location concepts.

📘🌎 CONCEPTUALIZATION 🌎📘
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Location tells us where a place or object is.
The cardinal points help us know direction. There are four main cardinal points: North, South, East, and West.
We use them to find places on maps and in real life.
Basic vocabulary:
-
Location 📍
-
North ⬆️
-
South ⬇️
-
East ➡️
-
West ⬅️
-
Map 🗺️

🎨✂️ CLASS ACTIVITIES ✂️🎨
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔹 ACTIVITY 1: BODY DIRECTIONS
Students stand up and move their arms following teacher instructions:
👉 Point to the North.
👉 Turn to the East.
This helps them learn directions through movement.
🔹 ACTIVITY 2: CLASSROOM MAP
Students draw a simple map of the classroom. They mark the door, board, and desks using cardinal points with teacher guidance.
🔹 ACTIVITY 3: FIND THE PLACE
In pairs, one student gives a simple direction and the other points or moves to the correct place, encouraging teamwork.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔁✨ CLOSURE ✨🔁
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Students repeat the four cardinal points aloud together. The teacher asks review questions and reinforces how directions help us find places.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🏠✏️ HOMEWORK ✏️🏠
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Students draw a simple map of their bedroom or house and label one place using a cardinal point with help from an adult.
