Objectives (5 - 7 minutes)
- Understand the concept of a noun and its importance in constructing sentences and texts.
- Identify the different types of nouns (common, proper, concrete, abstract, collective, and primitive) and their characteristics.
- Recognize the role of determinants in enriching the meaning of the noun, allowing for precision and contextualization of information.
Secondary Objectives:

- Encourage research and the pursuit of knowledge autonomously.
Introduction (10 - 15 minutes)
-
Content Review: The teacher should start the lesson by briefly reviewing the basic grammar concepts that were previously studied and are essential for understanding the topic at hand. This includes reviewing the concepts of subject and predicate, as the noun is one of the elements that can play the role of the subject in a sentence. (3 - 5 minutes)
-
Presentation of Problem Situations: The teacher should then propose two problem situations that will be discussed during the lesson. The first could be the analysis of a text where nouns are poorly used or where determinants are not present, making it difficult to understand the content. The second could be the creation of a story or text where students should use different types of nouns and determinants to enrich the narrative. (3 - 5 minutes)
-
Contextualization: The teacher should contextualize the importance of the topic, explaining how the correct and appropriate use of nouns and determinants is fundamental for effective communication, both in writing and speaking. Examples can be cited on how the misuse of these elements can lead to misunderstandings and difficulties in interpretation. (2 - 3 minutes)
-
Engaging Students' Attention: To spark students' interest, the teacher can share curiosities about the origin and evolution of nouns and determinants in the Portuguese language. For example, it can be mentioned how some words that are now nouns were originally verbs or adjectives, and how the addition of determinants can completely change the meaning of a word. Additionally, the teacher can present examples of famous phrases or excerpts from literature where the creative and precise use of nouns and determinants plays a fundamental role in expressing ideas and feelings. (2 - 3 minutes)
Development (20 - 25 minutes)
-
Noun and Determinant Classification Activity (10 - 12 minutes): The teacher should divide the class into groups of up to 5 students and distribute a list of sentences to each group. The sentences should contain a variety of types of nouns (common, proper, concrete, abstract, collective, and primitive) and determinants (articles, pronouns, numerals, adjectives, etc.). The objective of the activity is for students to identify and classify the nouns and determinants present in each sentence. The group that can correctly classify the highest number of nouns and determinants within the stipulated time will be the winner.
- Step 1: Distribute the list of sentences to each group.
- Step 2: Explain the rules of the activity and the objective.
- Step 3: Students must work together to identify and classify the nouns and determinants in each sentence.
- Step 4: At the end of the stipulated time, each group must present their list of classified nouns and determinants.
- Step 5: The teacher should correct the lists of each group, clarify doubts, and explain the errors.
-
Story Creation Activity (10 - 12 minutes): After the classification activity, the teacher should suggest that each group creates a short story using the nouns and determinants they classified. The story should be creative and original, and students should pay attention to the correct use of nouns and determinants to enrich the narrative. The teacher should move around the classroom, assisting groups facing difficulties and encouraging the participation of all students.
- Step 1: Explain the activity and the objective.
- Step 2: Students must work together to create the story, using the nouns and determinants they classified.
- Step 3: The teacher should move around the classroom, assisting groups and encouraging the participation of all students.
- Step 4: At the end of the stipulated time, each group must present their story to the class.
- Step 5: The teacher should provide a brief evaluation of the stories, highlighting the positive aspects and suggesting improvements.
-
Reflection and Discussion Activity (5 - 8 minutes): After the presentations, the teacher should lead a classroom discussion, questioning students about the difficulties encountered during the activities, the strategies used to overcome them, and the importance of correctly using nouns and determinants in communication. The teacher should encourage the participation of all students and ensure that everyone understood the concepts covered.
- Step 1: Lead the discussion, questioning students about the difficulties encountered and the importance of correctly using nouns and determinants.
- Step 2: Encourage the participation of all students and clarify all doubts.
- Step 3: Conduct a final evaluation of the lesson, checking if the Objectives were achieved and what can be improved.
Return (8 - 10 minutes)
-
Group Sharing (3 - 4 minutes): The teacher should organize a round of presentations where each group will have up to 2 minutes to share the story they created. During the presentations, other students should pay attention and, if necessary, ask questions to clarify points they did not understand. The teacher should ensure that all groups have the opportunity to present and that the time is respected.
- Step 1: Organize the order of presentations.
- Step 2: Each group presents their story, respecting the maximum time of 2 minutes.
- Step 3: After each presentation, other students can ask questions to clarify points they did not understand.
-
Connection with Theory (2 - 3 minutes): After the presentations, the teacher should revisit the theoretical concepts discussed at the beginning of the lesson and explain how they were applied during the activities. The teacher should highlight examples from the stories presented where students demonstrated understanding and correctly used nouns and determinants.
- Step 1: Revisit the theoretical concepts discussed at the beginning of the lesson.
- Step 2: Explain how they were applied during the activities.
- Step 3: Highlight examples from the stories presented where students demonstrated understanding and correctly used nouns and determinants.
-
Final Reflection (3 - 4 minutes): To conclude the lesson, the teacher should propose that students reflect for a minute on the following questions:
- What was the most important concept learned today?
- What questions have not been answered yet?
Students can write down their answers and, if they wish, share them with the class. The teacher should collect the students' notes and use the answers to plan future lessons and activities.
- Step 1: Propose that students reflect for a minute on the questions.
