Guessing game.
Put the kids into teams and show each group one slide, removing one section more after each sentence guess. Award 5 points if they guess the sentence after one section removed, and one less point for each extra section removed until they get the correct answer (it's up to you how lenient you are obviously - but maybe teach them 'ate' and 'rode' before the game...or delete these slides).

Winning team has the most points at the end.

I haven't double-checked it yet, but it's easy to fix if something is wrong with it...

Hi all...

Here are translations of the sentences that were posted in an earlier post. These are the main ones for this unit. I got a Korean buddy of mine to translate them. I usually use them in games and activities where I give the Korean sentence and the students have to translate to English (----- please say in English---) OR I make a worksheet so that they do written translations as well, which I then mark and give back. It really gets them thinking.
Hope this helps

Cheers

While preparing to use the board game posted by Sallyafc I decided it might be nice to run through a quick PPT with the students using the same images so they would be ready to use the correct English phrases on their own.

Also, while looking at the Rock, paper, scissors game posted by amycock, I also thought it would be nice to include a PPT introducing the images.

So, here are those files.

Hi,

I've gone bog-eyed at the minute so I'm gonna proof read the materials at the weekend. I'll upload them in any event.

The 'complete the sentences' ppt is just a short activity that I made that hopefully is a bit different and interesting. You just click on the words as the students put them in order. The brackets are hints for the students. The later slides are a simple guess what activity. The end slide was taken from another ppt presentation posted here so cheers for that.

The what's missing game is simple enough. Just when the students guess what is missing by speaking the sentence, I will ask did you have a good weekend/how was your weekend and the class should respond together. The original slides were taken from a 6th grade game but I deleted all the content. Some pictures I took from an earlier posting, so once again cheers for that. The rest I did for my winter camp but I've edited it to suit this lesson. So I need to double check everything is kosher. But as I say too bog-eyed at the minute.

Anyway here's the materials.

@Paul That treasure hunt game is the dopest thing I've seen on Waygook.

I played this game today and my students quite enjoyed it. The only thing is it takes a bit of work to print, laminate and cut the word cards. I made 6 sets so it was a bit of work but I think it's worth it! There's a PPT that goes along with the game. Before the game, I reviewed the vocabulary words and the past tense with my students (using the PPT), then we looked at some pictures and I had them tell me what the corresponding sentence was and then we played the game. For the game, they just have to look at the picture and make a sentence using the word cards.

Some key sentences and vocabulary, with a crossword puzzle on the back. Nothing fancy.

This is a familiar game I sometimes play with my students. Don't play this too often-or else you may abuse it. But when I do, I nearly always have them all excited. It's a "Luck" Game. Enjoy

I've edited Paul's "went" review activity to be Seoul-centric. I've also changed the title to "did you have a good vacation?"

I tweaked the animations on Lisa86's luck game to add to the suspense. Now the "change points" face is hidden behind a box until you click on it, like with the lucky "yes I did" picture, so the kids don't know what they're getting.

I also changed "did you have a good yesterday?" to "did you have a good day yesterday?" It still feels a bit awkward, though, so you might want to change those sentences to something entirely different.

teacher_del · « **Reply #31 on:** February 07, 2011, 04:08:06 pm »

I redid a lot of the luck game to make it more closely resemble a conventional bombs game. There are no bombs, though: each question will give you 1-5 points, or you can change points with another team if you get the swirly arrows. Most of the pictures are the same. I did take out a few sentences (like "I made an airplane") because two of my classes would have had trouble with them. They've been replaced with vocabulary we've explicitly covered in the second half of fourth grade.

I'd like to refer people to the Discovery Education clip art gallery, where I got the points graphics, for lots of excellent artwork to use in PPTs and handouts: http://school.discoveryeducation.com/clipart Most images are available in color and in black and white.

my ultimate past tense explanation for elementary.
Includes a game.
Includes study notes to print for each student.

This is truth.

I liked the random game and added a "coin toss" to it so the students could try out our new O/X (yes/no) two sided paddles.

For the new element, they have to choose yes or no to answer "Did you have a good weekend" on the given slides. Then there's a coin toss; if students are right their points get doubled, if they are wrong, they get only 1 point.

I put the pictures for Paul's flashcards into a PPT.

Here is an edited version of the Annoying Orange Game that someone posted earlier. This content in this one is for 5th and 6th grade students.

This is more appropriate for the new Grade 4 textbook (YBM Si-sa- lime green) but I'm not sure how to post it in the correct place! Could be useful for either Lesson 6- Let's Go Hiking or Lesson 12- I went to the Zoo.

My students are relatively higher level than other students so I thaught irregular past verbs as well. But they don't like memorizing or paracticing. I did a game. I called it"stepping stone game".
I printed out irregular verbs(pictures or words) and put them on floor in a line.
Make two groups of students and let them cross the cards one by one saying out target words loudly.
Each team should start from the each side.
Two of each team meet in the middle, they should do rock, scissors, papers and only the winner can go on.
The one who loses should out and new one get into the line (from the first card) promptly.
If they get to the last card, can get a point.

This is so exciting and hepful for drilling.
