Lesson Plan from the year 2007 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Pedagogy, Literature Studies, grade: 1,0, University of Education Heidelberg, language: English, abstract: The language-learning topic of my lesson is reading. This very important competence, through which the students easily learn new words, helps them also to assimilate and internalise target-language utterances and sentence structures, just by reading. Even if they don’t know all words, they are able to understand the main concept of a text by using their morphological, syntactic, semantic, general world knowledge and the knowledge of word meaning inferred from their first language. So the learners are able to combine their background knowledge and contextual clues to understand the meaning of an unknown word or even a whole text.
