Hi Jharris! Thank you so much for your incredibly creative powerpoints, they're so well made! I've been using them in all my classes, and they have saved me and gone over well with the students! It's my first time teaching middle school, so your presentations have been a lot of help  Your hardwork is very much appreciated!

Part A:

Here's part 1 of Lesson 4 that I prepared. I won't deliver this lesson until next week, so be warned this lesson hasn't been battle-tested in the field.

The warm-up is a tongue twister. First I give them a minute to practice. Then I challenge them to compete against me. The hitch being that while I tell them to focus on pronunciation first, I'm required to say it as fast as I possibly can... meaning I mess up quite a bit and they typically win.

The bulk of the main lesson is lifted directly from JHarris' lesson. Your stuff is great! I think I threw in an extra slide or two of explanation, that's about it.

Lastly, I added a boggle-type activity at the very end--except that the letters don't need to be connected. I split the class into smaller groups with white boards and erasers.


Part B:

Here's part B. Another tongue-twister warm up, and a review of the material in Part A. I am going to be using almost the same activity that JHarris provided, slightly modified. Warning: This ones not tested in the field either--I'll try it out next week and make  changes as needed.

Again, props to Jharris for the framework.

I split the lesson into two classes, and here are the results.
It worked with even the most unresponsive classes.

Listening and Speaking Activities included in .rar file.

Listening: Goes through each listening activities and scripts and introduces the speaking expressions
In this there are some cultural videos semi-related to the dialog. This is all textbook realted questions (as my Co-Teacher wants me to use the textbook.) You can edit the questions anyway you like as all the sound files have been embedded into the PPT.

Speaking: two game / activities using the speaking expressions for lesson 4

Do you mind..... speaking game. Students choose an expression to ask me from a chart. If the answer links to a good response, they get an award.

Which do you prefer?
1) Color personality test (students choose a color which corresponds to a specific personality trait) 
2) Play which do you prefer? (AKA would you rather...speaking debate)
Put students in small groups and have them choose A or B from the screen. Then have them defend their choice.

I would love to check our your lesson plan but the file will not open on either my work or home computers. Is there another format?

Thanks for everyone's PPTs - amazing work. Here are my adapted version.

Part 1 - gapfill attached
          - before the dialog (during the pre-teach) I got the kids to guess whether 'A Midsummer's Night Dream' was a comedy or tragedy. Then I show them a clip from youtube (the sound was pretty quiet on the classroom computer but they all loved it) to see if they were right.

Part 2 - battleships game. Instructions on PPT but a lot of kids didn't quite get it. Works best with a short demo between Co-T and you with the CO-T explaining again

2017 updates:
Part 1 - unscramble and riddle warm up / updated example pictures / 'Do you mind' section I had to cover a lot - giving the kids a heads up helped a lot / I added a Higher/Lower game which doesn't use the target language but after a heavy theory lesson it's good fun

Part 2 - example pictures updated / Midsummer Night's Dream embedded for better sound quality + who loves who quiz / quiz game added rather than battleships
