In this stage, the teacher should clearly present the lesson objectives, explaining what students should be able to do by the end of the lesson. The teacher may also briefly review previous knowledge related to the topic.

Introduction (10 - 15 minutes)

1. Review of previous content: The teacher should start the lesson by briefly reviewing basic grammar concepts in English, such as nouns and verbs, and how they are used in simple sentences. This review is crucial to ensure that students have the necessary foundation to understand and apply the quantity structures that will be introduced in this lesson.

2. Problem-solving situations: The teacher can present two problem-solving situations that involve the use of quantity structures in English. For example:

   • 'If you were in a store and wanted to buy several apples, how would you ask? And if you wanted only a few apples?'
   • 'If you were planning an event and needed many people, how would you send the invitation? And if you needed only a few people?'

3. Contextualization: The teacher should then contextualize the importance of quantity structures in English, explaining that they are essential for effective communication. The teacher may mention that these structures are often used in everyday situations, such as shopping, event planning, talking about quantities of food or drink, etc.

4. Introduction to the topic: To spark students' interest, the teacher can introduce the topic with some curiosities or interesting facts. For example:

   • 'Did you know that the English language has several words to express quantities, such as 'some', 'any', 'many', 'much', 'few', 'a few'? This may seem complicated, but let's see that it's not as difficult as it seems!'
   • 'Do you know why the English language has so many words to express quantities? One of the reasons is that the English language is influenced by many other languages, and each of them brought their own words to express quantities. This makes the English language rich and diverse!'

In this stage, the teacher should establish a connection between theory and practice, showing students how quantity structures in English are used in real situations and why it is important to learn to use them correctly.

Development (20 - 25 minutes)

1. Explanation of Quantity Structures (10 - 12 minutes): The teacher should start this stage by explaining each of the quantity structures in English: 'some', 'any', 'many', 'much', 'few', 'a few'. Then, clear examples of how and when to use each of these structures should be given.

   • The teacher can start with 'some' and 'any', which are used to express indefinite quantities. For example: 'I have some apples' or 'Do you have any pens?'
   • Next, the teacher can move on to 'many' and 'much', which are used to express larger quantities. For example: 'There are many people here' or 'I have much work'.
   • Finally, the teacher can explain 'few' and 'a few', which are used to express smaller quantities. For example: 'There are few people here' or 'I have a few apples'.

2. Practical Activities (10 - 13 minutes): After the explanation, the teacher should lead students through various practical activities to reinforce what has been learned. The activities may include:

   • Gap filling: The teacher can provide students with sentences that are missing the correct quantity structures. Students should fill in the gaps correctly. For example: 'There are _____ students in the classroom' (many) or 'I have _____ free time' (not much).

   • Card game: The teacher can create a card game where each card has an English sentence using one of the quantity structures. Students should match the cards correctly. For example, one card may say 'There are _____ cookies in the jar' and the other card may say 'a few'. Students should match these two cards correctly.

   • Role-playing: The teacher can organize a role-playing activity where students must use the quantity structures in English in everyday situations. For example, students can simulate a visit to a restaurant and order food using the correct quantity structures.

3. Discussion and Clarification of Doubts (5 - 7 minutes): At the end of the activities, the teacher should open a space for discussion and clarification of doubts. Students should be encouraged to share their experiences and difficulties in using quantity structures in English. The teacher should be prepared to explain any aspect that may not have been understood by the students.

In this stage, the teacher should use a variety of teaching strategies to ensure that all students understand and are able to use quantity structures in English correctly. The teacher should be patient and encouraging, encouraging students to express themselves in English and correct their own mistakes. Additionally, the teacher should provide constant and constructive feedback to help students improve their communication skills in English.

Return (10 - 12 minutes)

1. Review of Concepts (5 - 6 minutes): The teacher should start the Return stage by reviewing the main concepts covered during the lesson. This review can be done interactively, with the teacher asking questions to students and encouraging them to share what they have learned. For example:

   • Ask students to briefly explain the meaning of each of the quantity structures in English and in what contexts they are used.
   • Ask multiple-choice or gap-filling questions to check students' understanding. For example, the teacher can ask: 'What is the correct quantity structure to complete this sentence: 'There are _____ people in the park'?' (many).

2. Connection between Theory and Practice (2 - 3 minutes): Next, the teacher should help students make the connection between the theory learned and the practice. For this, the teacher can:

   • Review the practical activities carried out during the lesson and highlight how they help apply the quantity structures in real situations.
   • Show examples of how quantity structures are used in texts, songs, movies, or other media, so that students see the relevance of what they have learned.

3. Reflection on Learning (3 - 4 minutes): Finally, the teacher should propose that students reflect on what they have learned during the lesson. The teacher can ask questions such as:

   • 'What was the most important concept you learned today?'
   • 'What questions have not been answered yet? What would you like to learn more about quantity structures in English?'
   • 'How can you apply what you learned today in your daily life or in your English studies?'

   The teacher should give students enough time to reflect on these questions and share their answers. The teacher should be open to hearing students' responses and should encourage them to continue practicing and studying quantity structures in English.

In this stage, the teacher should reinforce the main concepts learned, help students make the connection between theory and practice, and motivate them to continue learning and practicing. The teacher should remind students that learning a new language is a continuous process that requires practice and effort, but can also be very rewarding and fun.

Conclusion (3 - 5 minutes)

1. Summary of Contents (1 - 2 minutes): The teacher should start the Conclusion by summarizing the main points covered during the lesson. This includes:

   • The definition and use of 'some', 'any', 'many', 'much', 'few', 'a few' in English.
   • Examples of how these quantity structures are used in different contexts and situations.
   • The importance of using quantity structures correctly for effective communication in English.

2. Connection between Theory, Practice, and Applications (1 minute): The teacher should reinforce how the lesson connected the theory, practice, and applications of quantity structures in English. For example:

   • How the practical activities during the lesson allowed students to apply the theory learned.
   • How quantity structures are used in real situations and why it is important to know how to use them correctly.

3. Extra Materials (1 minute): The teacher should suggest some extra materials for students who wish to deepen their knowledge of quantity structures in English. These materials may include:

   • English grammar books that delve into the use and application of different grammatical structures, including quantity structures.
   • English learning websites and apps that offer interactive exercises and study resources on English grammar.
