Here are my materials for this chapter. For period 1, I have text dialogue with fill-ins REMOVED. and a simple writing activity.

The "elf" activity. REMOVED (and the soccer game) could be used as either verbal unscramble by teams or as a "blazing pens" game. REMOVED

The invitation game is speaking, and the blanks activity is a bit of writing. REMOVED

Enjoy!

Review of vocab. (introduces different styles of parties)

Hot seat warm up. (reviews months and ordinal numbers)

I used this as a introduction to the speaking section. (2nd Period)

And here is a simple review of months of year. Eleven month names are shown on the screen (for 12 seconds). Students write the missing month in their notebook. Simple, but they enjoyed it. This was someone else's idea (I forget who, but Thanks!) that I gussied up. REMOVED

Lesson 3 worksheet

5th Period (Read and Write)
Warm up - match the months.

Write and Play ppt. (to help explain)
For sentence 6, you can elicit (from the students) what they think they would take to a specific party.
For sentence 3 you can have months displayed somewhere to help with spelling.
Also, remember: st,nd and rd.

Kyle Ludeke was the OG who made the template I just modified it for this lesson.
Beware one slide asks when my birthday is. I suggest changing it to yours.

A simple UNO game to have the kids practice saying the dates. Basically every time they put down a card they have to say the date on that card. I'll include a simple ppt I made to explain how to play UNO in case your kids don't know how. The cards can also be used as a snatching game where the teacher will say a date and the kids have to get the card first and the person with the most cards wins.

Running dictation.

Students are put in groups (however many suits you) and each group gets a worksheet.
I have hidden (scrambled) sentences all over the classroom. One person from each group is allowed to get up, find a sentence, unscramble it, and then repeat it to the 'writer'.
Then the next person goes and so on...
Group with the most correct wins.

Worksheet, Birthday cards writing activity, the months song

Project Lesson (Period 6)

This activity worked really well for my students (who are pretty high level and need more of a challenge than what the book offers)

After they make the party invitations they get a calendar that they must fill in with their friends' parties. They can only go to one party every month. If their friend invites them to a party in August and they have nothing on their calendar for August, they say "sure, I can." If they are already going to a party, they say "Sorry, I can't. I have Jihye's pool party." The person to attend the most parties by the end of the class is the winner.

I have attached the calendars and PPT here (the activity is better explained in the PPT). We put the calendars in plastic covers and had the kids use dry erase markers so that we could reuse the calendars.

Also, for motivation, I used this scene from the movie Sleepover, and had them guess the type of party (pajama, costume, dance, etc.). Some classes were doubled over laughing at it, others had no reaction at all.

Jennymae22's Partner speed circle game from the Cheonjay book 2 chapter of the same name adapted for this book.

She suggests using transparent folders and board markers to save paper.

I presume that in teams of 2 using different colored markers or crayons students try to circle the sentence in their color first.

Here's a simple Baskin Robbins 31 game to practice ordinal numbers

Lesson one vocab introduction. There's a "what's missing?" practice activity in the middle which I edited a little and added to my own PPT, so thanks to original poster.

There's also the circle game someone else uploaded at the end which I also edited because there one or two mistakes and my class are jerks and always point them out.

The questions for each round are in the PPT; hand-out attached to give to your class.

Review and reading game for the Let's Read section of the book, think it's fourth period off the top of my head.

Julia6145 · « **Reply #17 on:** April 15, 2016, 09:56:57 AM »

Think I found this in a different thread. First attachment is a survey activity. Make sure to go through the months first and have students raise their hands for their birthday month so you know which ones don't have anybody. Write the missing months on the board and tell them to put an X for them.

Intro PPT is also from elsewhere but it has some really nice images so I attached it, but both of these are good for first period.

New words and sentences for the lesson. I edited a ppt that I downloaded from here last year. Thank you to the original poster- sorry I don't remember who it was.

Ppt also includes months of the year.

My first contribution! I'm calling it "Crazy MCs". It's really just a reading drill, but I'm going to make the students read in funny voices - one line at a time, with their teams. There's a little girl, witch, old man, evil genius, robot, and spy. For spy they should whisper. The fourth time is a challenge round, with a few words missing.

I think most people are already past this lesson, but maybe this will help someone in future. It's easily adapted to any reading passage. I haven't tried it yet; I'll be using it today, and hope it goes well. Any suggestions for improvements are welcome. I have no rights to any of the media, but feel free to adapt and use. If you do, please let me know how it goes!

[Edit: This went over pretty well! There were lots of laughs and smiles, and outgoing students got really into it. Shyer students had to be coaxed a bit to participate. One option to address that (and to gamify it to add motivation) might be to each team elect a judge. Judges would get to keep their dignity and read together in normal voices on their turn - you could add a judge character for that. Then they would assign points to the rest of the teams for their performances. (The trade-off is that judges can't win.) One other note - I loved this, but like 'bang' reading games, I wouldn't use it too much, for the obvious drawbacks that it doesn't help practice authentic rhythm and intonation, and it doesn't reinforce comprehension at all. Anyway, happy reading!]
