Example High School Curriculum
noealz:
Hello, I've been searching for a good skeletal curriculum for HS from which to build upon. Have also been searching with boards with no luck, are there any suggestions?

We had an incredible lady teach our High School curriculum class during our EPIK training. Maybe you can contact her.
Her name is Minkyoung Cha and she works for Seoul Kuro High School. I don't have any contact info though....sorry!

No problem, I'll ask around for people in Daegu orientation, which city was it? This fall 2011?

I'm lucky. I've got a mid level academic high school in a rural area with 6 english teachers who can all speak impressive english. the headmaster was also a previous english teacher and as a result really pushes the importance of conversational english.
With 1st graders I mainly do functional english (I have them once a week, no textbook) with some listening focus (requested by coteachers).
With 2nd graders I do topic-based lessons (twice a week, 1 textbook which has limited use) with frequent listening activities (requested).
I made out a plan for my lessons this year, and haven't yet finished it (haven't included the grammar focus or materials, for example) but it might be of use to you. This is my second year in this school and all the lessons / topics / material that bombed last year i've thrown out the window, so most of it is interesting for the students.

There aren't any real syllabi focus points. They have to do 3 assessments per semester, one of which has to be a prepared speech. The other two are usually a conversation/dialogue and interview or something similar. Find out when the assessments would be (even you don't actually grade them) and plan lessons that help them prepare for the assessments. High school students are generally only motivated by work that is tested.
