TEACHING PLAN
1. Curriculum
The curriculum used in Laboratory School TAU is K-12
(Curriculum K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum). Therefore, based on the
curriculum used by TAU-Laboratory School, the lesson plan format should be
matched with the curriculum objectives as well. Here, the objectives of the
lesson plan are based on three aspects; those are cognitive, psycho-motor, and
affective.
2. Teaching Plan of English
Here are teaching plans that I made during my teaching practices:

DEFINITION OF ADJECTIVE
An adjective is a word that describes, identifies, modifies,
or quantifies something (a noun or a pronoun). In the phrase, "the black cat"
the word black is an adjective because it describes the cat. In English, an
adjective usually comes before the noun it pertains to (for example, a red
apple or a cute cat.).
THE COMPARATIVE AND THE SUPERLATIVE
COMPARATIVE ADJECTIVES
Comparative adjectives are used to compare differences
between the two objects they modify (larger, smaller, faster, higher).
They are used in sentences where two nouns are compared. Basically, the pattern
is: Noun (subject) + verb + comparative adjective + than +
noun (object).
EXAMPLES:
§ My house is larger than hers.
§ This box is smaller than the
one I lost.
§ Your dog runs faster than
Jim's dog.
§ The rock flew higher than the
roof.
§ Jim and Jack are both my friends, but I like
Jack better. ("than Jim" is understood)
SUPERLATIVE ADJECTIVES
Superlative adjectives are used to describe an object which
is at the upper or lower limit of a quality (the tallest, the smallest,
the fastest, the highest). They are used in sentences where a subject is
compared to a group of objects. Noun (subject) + verb + the +
superlative adjective + noun (object).
The group that is being compared with can be omitted if it
is clear from the context (final example below).
EXAMPLES
- My
house is the largest one in our neighborhood.
- This
is the smallest box I've ever seen.
- Your
dog ran the fastest of any dog in the race.
- We all
threw our rocks at the same time. My rock flew the highest.
("of all the rocks" is understood)
FORMING REGULAR COMPARATIVES AND SUPERLATIVES
Forming comparatives and superlatives is easy. The form
depends on the number of syllables in the original adjective.
ONE SYLLABLE ADJECTIVES
Add -er for the comparative and -est for
the superlative. If the adjective has a consonant + single vowel + consonant
spelling, the final consonant must be doubled before adding the ending.
Examples: 1. Tall – taller – tallest
C. Fat – fatter – fattest
D. Big- bigger- biggest
TWO SYLLABLES
Adjectives with two syllables can form the comparative
either by adding -er or by preceeding the adjective with more.
These adjectives form the superlative either by adding -est or
by preceeding the adjective with most.
Examples:
a. Happy – happier
– happiest
b. Simple- simpler-
simplest
c. Busy – busier -
busiest
THREE OR MORE SYLLABLES
Adjectives with three or more syllables form the comparative
by putting more in front of the adjective, and the superlative
by putting most in front.
Examples:
1. Important – more
important- most important
2. Expensive – more
expensive – most expensive
IRREGULAR COMPARATIVES AND SUPERLATIVES
These very common adjectives have completely irregular
comparative and superlative forms.
Examples:
1. Good- better- best
2. Bad – worse – worst
3. Far – further –
furthest
EXAMPLES
§ Today is the worst day I've
had in a long time.
§ You play tennis better than I
do.
§ This is the least expensive
sweater in the store.
§ This sweater is less expensive
than that one.
§ I ran pretty far yesterday, but I ran
even farther today.

the adjectives
· The teacher will ask the students to list the
examples the superlative and comparative
adjectives

d. Motivation
The teacher is going to write 3 sentences on the board and ask the students why the adjectives are placed in different way?
Examples of sentences:
- She is very beautiful
- She is a beautiful girl
- She loves the blue shoes. And I love the white
2. The teacher is
going to ask the students’ opinion/ answers
3. The teacher is
going to tell about the topic they are going to discuss today
B. LESSON PROPER
1. The teacher is going
to explain about three types of adjective :
· Nominal adjectives act almost as
nouns. One way this can happen is if a noun is elided and
an attributive adjective is left behind. In the sentence, "I read two
books to them; he preferred the sad book, but she preferred the
happy", happy is a nominal adjective, short for
"happy one" or "happy book". Another way this can happen is
in phrases like "out with the old, in with the new", where "the
old" means, "that which is old" or "all that is old",
and similarly with "the new".
Examples:
1. “The elderly are
a great source of wisdom.”
2. “The French have
amazing restaurants.”
3. “We should
treat the elderly with respect.”
4. “This law
protects the innocent.”
· Attributive
adjectives are part of the noun
phrase headed by the noun they modify; for example, happy is
an attributive adjective in "happy people".
Examples:
1. a tropical fish
2. a leafless tree
3. a tight dress
4. a well-stocked shop
5. an expensive hotel
· Predicative
adjectives The predicative adjective modifies the noun that comes
before it. It acts as a predicate as it completes the meaning of the predicate
in the sentence. The predicate is linked by the verb to be, which
is normally a linking verb (also called a copula verb
or the verb which joins a subject with its complement) to the subject.
Examples:
1. The scream
was loud.
2. One of the tables
is round.
3. The sky
looks dark.
2. The teacher
is going to divide the students into 3 groups
3.
the teacher is going to give puzzle words about the learned types
of adjectives
4. the
teacher is going to give candies as rewards to the fastest group
C. GENERALIZATION
The students are asked to give an oral reflection about what
they have learned.
- What are the different functions of each type of
adjective?
IV. Learning

adjectives, and classify its type on the box provided before the number

V.
Assignment
The teacher will ask the students to ask the students to
write comments
on a paper (3 or more paragraphs) about the topic and the
teacher’s teaching
method by using the learned adjectives.
