The stages of an English lesson in pre-primary school typically include greeting, welcome song, routine, exploration, practice, and farewell. The greeting sets the tone for the class and helps students feel welcomed. The welcome song further warms up the class and transitions students into a learning mindset. The routine stage involves familiar activities that provide security and allow reviewing past material. The exploration stage introduces new concepts interactively. The practice stage allows children to apply what they've learned through repetition and usage. Finally, the farewell stage helps wind down the class and provides closure before students transition out.

Songs are particularly effective with young learners for their rhythmic and repetitive nature, which aids memory and language acquisition. Examples of what can be done: A catchy, easy-to-sing song that may include greetings in English or introduce/revisit vocabulary.
- 5. ROUTINE (3-5 minutes) This stage involves activities that are familiar to the students, providing a sense of security and routine. It's important for reinforcing consistency and for reviewing previously learned material. This is also when the teacher writes the stages of the lesson on board, so students know what will happen during the day. Examples of what can be done: Remembering the day of the week, weather, or reciting a familiar rhyme or chant that incorporates basic English vocabulary.
- 6. EXPLORATION (10-12 minutes) This is a more interactive and dynamic part of the lesson where new concepts are introduced. Exploration fosters curiosity and encourages active participation. This is the moment of the lesson when the book is used. Examples of what can be done: Interactive storytelling, discovering new words through pictures and objects, watching a video etc.
- 7. PRACTICE (10-15 minutes) The practice stage allows children to apply what they've learned. This stage reinforces new knowledge through repetition and usage, which is crucial for language learning. This stages may consist in one or more activities.

It's a time to reflect on what was learned and to say goodbye, which helps in transitioning out of the class environment smoothly.
