(Article) The objective of a lesson ?

1. The objective of today's lesson is be able to express what you do on the weekends in Spanish.
2. The objective of a lesson is ....
3. The objective of the lesson is ....
4. An objective of a lesson is ....
5. An objective of the lesson is ....

Q) Which of them sound good if the implied context is #1?
I don't think #4 is OK. I think #3 sounds the best cause the speaker is is going to specify "the" objective in the later phrase in the same sentence; and "the" lesson, we already know that that lesson is a specific lesson.
Is my interpretation correct?
