TEFL lesson plan hobbies Vocabulary and to review adverbs of frequency for elementary class 45 minutes?

This is to be my last attempt and I’m stumped with each submission I’m told that I need to focus on teaching vocabulary and the students don’t know what a hobby is I have adjusted the assignment twice but the tutor says I’m missing the point of the lesson so yes I’m Pleading for some one to help.
10 points 5 stars to the one that saves me.

Well, first you want to try and combine the two ideas. Choose the adverbs that you want to teach and list them in order. One Japanese student I had made a list — “always = 100% often =80%, but I don’t know if you’d get away with that. There are a lot of them, so you need to narrow it down to about 6 or 7 for the purposes of your class.
(Often, frequently, occasionally, seldom, rarely, never, etc.) Eventually you can make a Q&A drill using the hobbies and the adverbs. “Do you like to read?” “No, I rarely read.” or Yes, etc. etc.
Introduce the subject by getting them to understand spare time — what they do when they don’t have to work or be at school. I don’t know if you have access to any ESL books, but the old pairwork books include interviews about hobbies and adverbs of frequency. You might find something on an ESL site — there are lots of them. Google ESL hobbies activities or vocab or something. Hopefully you can find some pictures of popular hobbies. Pictures are a good way to introduce elementary vocab. In 45 minutes you can’t inundate them with too much new stuff or they won’t remember it.
They WILL get the concept of hobby if you explain it correctly, and in addition to what you bring in,
you may be able to elicit some from them. I’d do it this way: Presentation, spare time and hobby vocab. (with pictures if possible. Q&A Drill:
“Do you have any hobbies?” “Yes, I like to………” You ask a few and then they ask each other.
If you want, you could do a “find someone who” information gathering activity. When you’ve got that settled, introduce the adverbs, using the hobbies as a prompt. “Juan, you like to play soccer. Do you play soccer often?” etc. If you drill and make sure everyone in the class speaks, the lesson will fly by. If you give homework you can get them to fill in a written drill or write a few sentences about their hobbies and how often they do them.
