In this video, I would like to talk about how Gagné's Instructions are demonstrated by the teacher.

In the beginning of the class, he asks a question: "Does everybody know charades?" By asking this question, he introduces the game which they're going to play and makes sure that students know the game. At this point, students will wait him to tell more about the game and this draws attention. This is GAINING ATTENTION.

Later on, he gives the instructions of the game and demonstrates it for the students. It makes everything clear. Students understand what they are going to do during the game. He also says that he wants students to form full sentences in present continuous tense. This is INFORMING THE LEARNER OF THE OBJECTIVE.

Students begin to play the game. They form 2 teams: Team A and Team B. One of the team member tries to tell the word with gestures and mimics, and the other one tries to guess the word. When the student find the word, s/he has to form full sentences such as "You are laughing" or "You are pulling something". This needs prior knowledge of present cont. tense and students recall this knowledge and use it during the game. This is RECALLING PRIOR LEARNING

During the game, he says " Good job!" and he also writes the points down on the board. By doing this, students can see their team's condition and their competitors'. This is the stimulus of the game and it's PRESENTING THE STIMULUS.

At the beginning of the game, he gives the instructions and demonstrates the game which gives students an idea about the game. In addition, he usually assures students and guides them by saying "Yes", "Alright". With those expressions, students understand that they are on the right track. This is PROVIDING LEARNER GUIDANCE.

At this point, students play the game by guessing the action words and forming full sentences including this vocab. item and they complete the game. This is ELICITING PERFORMANCE.

During the game, the teacher always gives them immediate feedbacks by saying "Yes" "Excellent" or "Good job!". Students understand whether they're wrong or not by these expressions. This is PROVIDING FEEDBACK".

At the end of the game, the teacher announces the winner team by looking the charts on the board and it is the assessment part of the game. This is ASSESSING PERFORMANCE.

In the end of the video, the teacher talks about other ways to use charade games while teaching vocabulary or grammar. He says that teacher can take it further and makes the lesson enjoyable, interactive and useful. This is ENHANCING RETENTION AND TRANSFER.

We've seen Gagné's nine events of instructions and their demonstrations in the esl lesson. I think the teacher clearly demonstrates these steps. His lesson is enjoyable as well as informative and this is the most important one: to be able to put these 2 items together.
