Well, I assume some of you, like me, logged on here and were bummed to discover there were no posts on this chapter of the lovely, informative, not at all random and arbitrary book that we all use.  Here's my plan for day 1.

Quickly cover an embarrassing story related to the misuse of the word "lover" from one of my former students.

Do the dialogue which, by some miracle, is not as flawed as most of them.

               Quick sidebar on the real life inspiration for Sherlock Holmes.

Do the say it right section.

Do a competitive brainstorm activity where students have to come up with as many different genres of book/film as they can.  Have them work in groups, give them 5 minutes, and then have them write all their genres on the board.  The group with the highest number of non-duplicates wins a (sticker, point, whatever you do to make them actually give half a darn about your class.)

I'm gonna use the phrase " don't mention it"  and run with it to make a lesson about manners in Western countries. I'm using a very nice ppt. I found on here (can't remember where) so can't take any credit for it. All I've done is add a few slides to drill the key phrase and I've also changed one of the videos.

I'm also attaching a worksheet, it's extremely basic as my students are very low level but it can be easily modified to make it more challenging.

Anyways, hope it helps someone.

I'm not really crazy about bomb games, but I have a bit of a gap in my schedule that needs filling.

Worksheet and a power point to accompany it. The worksheet has fill in the blank dictation, short answer, substitution drill, and a writing component.

Here's a conversation practice worksheet that I made to go with the book. It includes both movies and book genres.

I'm not sure if anyone else had massive trouble coming up with activities that weren't dreadfully dull for huge classes from this chapter, but here are a couple of things I did with my classes.
Chapter vocabulary bingo game with the best bingo template I've ever found (thanks to the creator)
Past tense focused worksheet to accompany the Pixar short film Presto. ALL of my students at both of my schools have absolutely loved Presto, and they generally did pretty well with the worksheet. You can find the clip online. I recommend searching "Presto Vimeo" and using one of the clips on that site as they tend to be higher quality.
Lastly, an entertainment themed bomb game using the Maple Story template. Some of the slides are a bit hard to read and some of the vocabulary requires a bit of an explanation, but my classes enjoyed the game and did well once there had been a little acting out/explaining in simpler terms on my part. Round Two on this game is still solely focused on the past tense, if you would prefer to use it for that purpose.

Both of my lessons are here in one powerpoint.  For the first week, I taught "I enjoy," connecting it with interests from Chapter 3 and favorites from Chapter 1.  My activity was a speed, slapping game based on their vocabulary for the lesson which I got from my co-teacher.  Basically, you set out two vocab cards on each side of a row of desks and put two teams at one end.  The first person on each team races down the row saying the sentence "I enjoy. . . whatever." and slapping the card.  When they meet it's rock, paper scissors and the loser goes to the end of their teams line.  Then the next person on that team starts.  If one person on a team reaches the end of the course (down and back) they earn their team a point.  It's a little challenging to explain, but once my co-teacher and I played it out, they understood and really enjoyed it.  I included instructions to play again changing the setences with negatives and questions (for which I just made cards with ? and X on them) but didn't have time for that.



The second week was right before finals/vacation so I took it easy: we did the dialogue and then played Go Fish to practice "Don't mention it."  I included a full visual explanation of the game that really helped my students understand.  I hope you guys find some of this useful.

I've created a review lesson for chapters 4&5 using some of my own material, some from elequestrian (the Go Fish game was especially useful-thanks!) and some other stuff I found on other threads. Covers the key phrases from Chapters 4 and 5. The Go Fish game is a little complicated to explain so I've included a link to a games website that illustrates it more clearly. Once my students got the hang of it, they loved it.

Standard Disclaimer: I made these lessons a while ago and I probably used some of previous posters' uploaded work. If you would like individual credit where I have used/stolen/butchered/altered to the point of unrecognisability your work, please message me and I will see to it.

Older version of my Ch5 lesson. Suffice to say some of my students are not as into books as I am. But hey ho. The story part sometimes works really well, and even if not the little slips are great for generating surreal beat poetry.
'Run for the hills!'
'They're coming from the hills, sir.'
'Run away from the hills! If you see a hill, run the other way!'
