These are survey results from 1st and 2nd graders at a regular girls high school. 

1.  Which pop song would you like to learn?  Give the title and singer.
2.  What do you want to learn.  Be specific.  No games.
3.  What is your English speaking goal?

The attached survey is by no means formal.  At best, this can give insight/feelers to what students are interested in.  1, 2 means 1st and 2nd graders.  a = high English class, b = middle, c= low.

Looks useful. Hope to download it whenever I can.

This is a hugely valuable resource!  Your screen name is quite appropriate. :) I have a hard time gauging their interest in much beyond KPop and superhero/Johnny Depp movies...  I should do something like this survey for my students as well--1st grade high school boys and girls--before the year is over.  On the note of English songs that might work well for high school, my students (boys and girls alike) enjoyed the music video lesson for Taylor Swift's "You Belong with Me" which I found and adapted from the Waygook lesson.

Thank you so much for the time you must have put into compiling the results of your survey!  I'm not so great with spreadsheets, so this looks really impressive to me, haha. :)

Hi, CellarDoor

In hindsight, I would do the survey around the time before or after the final exam period.  This way, you can design your 2nd semester lesson plans. 

Overall, if you are teaching at a new school, you can also do the survey your first or second week of school.  Week 1 can be student introduction and include the 10 minute survey at the end.

Hi everyone

My High School girls really enjoyed this lesson on the show Gossip Girl (fashion and beautiful people are the only things that really get this class motivated!). I made a powerpoint and handout (I used Taebaekluke 's Inception handout as a template, thank you). I gave them the handout then started the powerpoint which introduces the show, it's themes and characters. I got them to fill in the characters names on their handout as we looked through the powerpoint. A lot of my students watch it so we talked about the different characters personalities and what they thought of them. I went over a few words with them like "wealth/wealthy" and "class- upper/middle/lower" (using Blair and her maid Dorota as examples) on the board. We then watched about 25 minutes of an episode I downloaded. It was season 2 episode 11 (we watched from 10 minutes in so it matched up with the screen grabs from the handout). I downloaded the subtitles in Korean too. We then went over their answers. I know the handout is very simple but the level is pretty low at this school so I needed to keep it easy.

It's not too demanding, just something fun for the end of term. My girls loved it and were really excited to talk about it.
I hope someone can get some use out of it  ;)
