Yes, this is a chapter because they need to be
more
nationalistic!
I did an expanded version of the food BINGO game in the book. Also, I took out the random "the" in front of pine needles in the dialogue.
Make a blank BINGO card in excel for them to fill out. It won't let me post the excel document I made mine in, and I don't really care to work around that right now.
The bomb game is just there if you have extra time.

It's all positive nationalism though. I don't see a problem with any of it.

Here are a few games I made for this lesson:
There are two matching games.
The first one, the students are to use the phrase, "_______ goes with _______."
The Second one, the students are to use the phase "________'s made with________."
The 007 game explains itself.
The "What's Behind" game is Halloween themed and only good for slow students. I played it s that the monsters equaled minus points and the winner was the team that found the least.

I also expanded on the Bingo section in the book (and I built off of your ppt, Jessicagregg, so thank you!) but I did more of a worldwide selection of food and used my favorite bingo template someone on waygook made that makes the kids use the target language rather than just giving them a random list of words. I also found a cool 1 minute video about foods of the world that three men made. My kids really liked it! if you search for "Eat" on Vimeo, you should be able to find it.

For my second lesson on this chapter, I decided to focus on the grammar point, "isn't it?" and "don't we?" on page 137.
I had them watch the Pixar Short "Lifted" (2006), which is soooo stupidly hard to find online with the original soundtrack. It's used a lot for sound editing projects. I found links on these three sites that have the original sound, but the clip gets taken down a lot.

3.

I was actually so frustrated, I ended up purchasing the clip on iTunes for like $2 and then authorizing my school computer to use my account.
Then the students did a worksheet to practice the grammar point.
Finally, they had to play a sort of team true/false quiz that incorporated the grammar and used white boards.

So my classroom computer died for a couple of weeks, so I made a lot of worksheets for this lesson focusing on tag questions. You can mix and match them, depending on your students' levels. I started with 'to be', moved on to auxiliary verbs (focus: can/can't), then 'to do' because it was a little trickier to teach, and finally a short quiz. If you have a limited time with students, just print out the guide and quiz. I simplified the rules of tag questions down to pluses and minuses, so it's easy for even low level students to digest.
At the end, I included a not-really-a-golden bell-golden bell powerpoint that I used to 'review' at the end of the lesson. It includes questions about world foods, the Brian and Mina dialogue, the "Hanji" reading, and tag questions. I'd recommend one team choosing the question, but having all teams write their answers on a whiteboard to keep them from getting distracted and making noise.
Also, to prevent one student from doing all the work, make them pass the board to another team member each round (and, if you're feeling particularly evil, tell them they can't tell the 'writer' the answers - if they do, disqualify the team from that round. The students get creative about using charades to give hints, haha.)

The topic of negative questions and how to use/reply to them(a pretty big and confusing milestone in ELL) has recently come up in one my classes and I thought it would be useful to post the results here. This question came up last year when I was teaching with this textbook(and got to this exact chapter) at my previous school. One of the Korean teachers asked me how to use them, and I wasn't sure how to answer her. For anyone who was like me, teach it like this:
Korean grammar, literally translated in to English, works something like this:
Are you hungry? (examine the question as true or false; am I hungry?)
- Yes(true), I'm hungry.
- No(false), I'm not hungry.
Aren't you hungry (examine the question as true or false; am I not hungry?)
- No(false), I'm hungry.
- Yes(true), I'm not hungry.
It's complicated. Alot of Korean English teachers will try teaching it the Korean way(and I've even seen a few textbooks printed this way), but it's wrong. English grammar is, for once, easier than Korean. Positive is always positive in English, and negative is always negative. Whether someone asks a question in the positive or negative, the answer remains the same:
Are you hungry?
- Yes, I'm hungry.
- No, I'm not hungry.
Aren't you hungry?
- Yes, I'm hungry.
- Yes, I'm not hungry.
If students are confused by this, tell them not to think in terms of true or false, and to think of only their answer - If they feel positively about something, answer in the positive; if they feel negatively about something, answer in the negative.
It really is that simple
. ^^

I ran a 3 part series on tags for this unit.
1st Class - I taught different tags and how to respond to tag questions. We focused on using he/she/it. I showed optical illusions and asked "It looks like ___, doesn't it?". Students loved the optical illusions. I used the jeopardy template and made a game where students had to answer trivia - using the correct tag and also giving the correct response to the trivia.

2nd Class - I taught balanced tag questions. Students worked on a matching activity as I cut out the first part of the sentence and the following tag question (I found this online, but will post it here). After that we played a unique sentences game. I gave a category with a bunch of pictures as well as a tag question. Students had to make a unique sentence using the pictures and the tag question.

3rd Class - I taught about rising and falling intonation. Students listened to clips from the Big Bang Theory (link in PowerPoint) , had to match the tag question with the clip and write if it was rising or falling (this was a challenging activity). Afterwards students worked on a human bingo game where they had to pick someone in the class who met the sentence and put the correct tag. For example, "____ wants to be a doctor, _____?"
