This game practices the phrases "I can't believe it" and "I can believe". I took the idea from elsewhere on this thread and put it into a Mr Bean template. My students are low level so I like to use activities where they can all take part - they really enjoyed it.

My co-teacher has asked me to create key words and phrases ppt's for each lesson. This is shown at the introduction of the unit to teach the students the words that they may not know, that they will hear or see in the Speaking/Listening section of the text.

This should take about 5-10 mins to go through, asking students to guess the Korean meaning, discussing different parts of the pictures and reading the sentences aloud.

Teach this to your students... they'll thank you for it later!

I split this into 2 lessons. The first one focuses on the bird song theme and the second one practices using 'May I...?' and the correct way to respond. I should add my students are very low level as I am in an arts school, therefore English is not a big focus. This lesson allowed all my students to participate and the game was a big success.
