EIF Lesson Plan Time Framework

The document outlines the EIF lesson plan framework. It consists of 7 steps: Motivation, Encounter #1, Encounter #2, Internalize #1, Internalize #2, Internalize #3, and Fluency. The framework is meant to move from shorter, controlled, accuracy-focused activities to a longer, free, fluency-focused activity. It also notes an alternative lesson plan framework called ESA (Engage, Study, Activate).

*Special Note: The EIF framework is supposed to work in triangular


fashion moving from the tip to the base in two ways: start with
short activities that are controlled and focus on accuracy, and move
through the pyramid towards 1 fluency activity which should be the
longest activity of the lesson plan. Go from controlled activities
focused on accuracy through the levels to a free activity focused
on fluency.

Controlled and Accuracy focused

Free and Fluency Focused

Controlled  Free
Accuracy  Fluency
Motivation: The motivation part is to peak interest, introduce the
topic; orientate the students to that topic (metastatements and
implication can be used here). This can also be likened to a micro
level silent period where the students do not necessarily have to
produce anything, but elicitation, activating Ss’ schema, etc is a
good way.

Encounter: The activities should focus on the meaning/objective of


the lesson plan.
Internalization: Focus on accuracy based activities and the
activities should enable all Ss a production role  widespread
practice.

Fluency: Free activities that do not use target language


sheets/sources, but only what the Ss have acquired. Props and
directions are acceptable, but no language sources.

**There is another form of Lesson Plan called ESA:


Engage/Study/Activate**
