Grade 3 Lesson 6 part 1

Target language - 'I hope'

I also decided to include 'I wish' and explain the difference (co-T will come in handy here!)

I'm teaching this lesson this week and the students seem to like it, especially the game at the end.

Enjoy!

Here is Grade 2, Lesson 5, Part 1 Expressing Sympathy.  Special thanks to Jelly Bean and Cocoinkorea whose material and presentation I've adapted.  I'm challenged in 2 ways by my students. 1st their rudimentary English coupled, in some cases, with fledgling personal discipline, and 2nd their ongoing struggle to see the white board.

I've altered slides to help them understand, enlarged the font and added a bit of material. There's nothing new here. Thank you for your creativity.

This is a Simpson's Bomb game to review lesson 5 for grade 2's.  (Some of the material I took from a poster, ...)....If you use this, tell me how it goes!!!
  I will use this next week, and I'll let you know. Thank you rxqueen.

Edit, June 20th.  It took longer than I thought. The kids participated and the teams worked together somewhat smoothly to supply answers. Thank you from me and my class!

I constantly have complaints about the size... no matter how big I make them, there are always one or two students who can't see :(

2nd Grade Lesson 5: Think Positive (Practice with will)

PPT starts with answering questions about the world in 100 years. They learn the meaning of optimist and pessimist.

Next, students make predictions about what they will, might, or won't do in the future. (worksheet)

Finally, students make paper fortune tellers. (Directions on PPT)

great idea about the fortune telling!

Hi guys. I know some people are worried about finishing your material before the semester is over. Luckily, they have be cover 1 speak out a class. Which needs to be stretched sooo much. Luckily you guys have been great with providing lessons.

I am still on lesson 4 since I don't see my students very often.

What I do, though, to make the lessons last even longer is use my elementary school lessons (usually awesome games) as a review for the middle schoolers, since some of them really need the review. It can never hurt. I even give my high schoolers the elementary lessons.

Sentence Jumble and Holiday Jeopardy Bomb game have been amazing to me.

Hello

Here is the brilliant BAAM game (thank you whoever created this!) - this version is one I have made for Grade 2 covering lessons 4 & 5, if you need a lesson filler.

Enjoy!

Hello

Here is a PowerPoint for the 'I'm so sorry' part of Grade 2 Lesson 6.

I think the second part, describing people + present continuous, is going to need more time so this is a very simple and quick PowerPoint just to present the dialogue.

If anyone wants to share their wonderful ideas for the second part of Lesson 6 - describing people - feel free to share, this is going to be my open class and I'm trying not to freak out!

Cheers

Hi,

Can anyone tell me what the dialogue is for Chapter 6 Dialogue 1. I forgot my book at school and need to make a lesson plan for Tuesday morning...

thanks,

Sorry I can't tell what grade you want (unless I completely missed reading it) so here's all of them:

Grade 1:

Julie: May I speak to Kevin?
Kevin: Yes, speaking. Who's this, please?
Julie: This is Julie.

Grade 2:

Mike: You're late again.
Jimin: I'm so sorry. The traffic was very heavy.

Grade 3:

Minjun: I have a math exam tomorrow.
Jenny: I hope you do well on the exam.
Minjun: Thank you. I hope so, too.

The bold parts are the highlighted parts from the books.  Hope this helps.  It's the first dialogue for all 3 grades in Chapter 6 .

I know, I know!  I've got kids in the first row who squint at the board.  Last year in a hagwon when I suggested to a couple of kids that they needed glasses, they were HUGELY offended. I've never said anything to a student since.

Grade 2, Lesson 5 "I'm sorry to hear that"
« Reply #277 on: June 07, 2011, 01:30:03 PM »
Hey guys,

This is just a quick worksheet I made to go along with the first part of Grade 2, Lesson 5 "I'm sorry to hear that". I'm just going to have them do this in pair-work at the end of the lesson. I put two on a sheet to save some paper!

Hope somebody can use it! :D

Does anybody have any ideas for the Speak out section for Grade 2 Lesson 6?
I need to make an open class lesson but I have no idea where to start. You're ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you
