The lesson flow
- 5′Warm-up — Teacher looks out the window (or points to a picture) and says 'It's sunny!' or 'It's rainy!' with big gestures. Children copy the gestures and repeat the phrase together.
- 10′Presentation — Teacher shows flashcards one by one for sunny, rainy, cloudy, windy, snowy, and stormy, saying 'It's a sunny day' each time with a matching action (shielding eyes for sunny, shivering for snowy). Children repeat each phrase three times chorally.
- 10′Practice — Teacher holds up a flashcard and asks 'What's the weather?'; children answer as a class 'It's [weather]!' Then teacher calls individual children to pick a card and say the sentence alone, drilling the fixed structure 'It's a [adjective] day' until it's automatic.
- 15′Song — Teacher plays 'It's Sunny Today!' and leads the actions for each weather word. Children sing the chorus loudly, then the whole song twice, with teacher pointing to flashcards at each vocabulary word.
- 5′Wrap-up — Teacher shuffles the flashcards and quickly flips through them; children shout the correct 'It's a [weather] day' sentence for each one as a fast final review game.
The song — “It's Sunny Today!”

Close the loop
The quiz isn’t a grade — it tells you what to bring back. If the class misses a word here — say “sunny” —your next LingoChorus lesson recycles it into the warm-up, the song and a quick check, so it sticks. That’s the Loop: plan → teach → assess → re-plan.
