Here's a verbs bomb game.

[Mod Edit: Turned off caps]

Here are my 'lesson plans' / materials for this unit. Sorry the lesson plans aren't in a very good format, my school is happy for me to just have them as notes for myself.

Sorry for any duplication of materials borrowed from other people on waygook, and thanks for originally posting them!

Because Mediafire is gone, I'm gonna upload my stuff here :]

If there's no link in the index, run a search for your book's specific vocabulary.  If that comes up empty, then you'll need to start a new thread yourself.  :)



Here's a game that works well with smallish classes and heavy vocabulary lessons:  . Hop and Say + Rocks, Paper & Scissors :

Skills focus: Speaking, vocabulary and general communication.
Requirements: A number of vocabulary cards to line up on the floor.
How to play:
Hop and say is a pretty easy game to play. The teacher brings a number of flash cards to class and lines the cards up across the floor in a row. Two teams stand at the extremes of the row. When the teacher orders the game to start, the first student from each team starts to jump on the first card. Every time a student jumps on a card s/he says what is on the card-For higher levels ask them to make a sentence with the word on the cards. Eventually s/he will meet the other team player somewhere on the row. When the two team players meet, they have to do the old guessing game of ROCK, PAPER & SCISSORS . The student who looses the Rock, paper & scissors game of chance, leaves the row and goes to the back of his or her team’s line up. Another player in his/her team restarts the game for their team. It should be such that the next team mate in the line up should be ready to start immediately when s/he realizes that their team player has lost the stone paper scissors guessing part. The idea is not to let the other team player get to the end of the row. If the other team player gets to the end of the row, his / her team wins.

1.___ Hopping to meet __2. Rocks, Paper, Scissors __3. Going to the end of the line
  

Another teacher at my school designed this template.  It's not mine but I'm sharing it on her behalf.  This has been formatted for the 3rd grade lime green book, but you can modify the template according to your desired level or grade specifications.  This particular template is for Grade 3 Lesson 2. 
Cheers!

worksheet for "what's this?"  second column is for kids to draw an object... enjoy :)

Hey here's a story for the end of "what's this?". My co-teacher and I don't really like the books stories because they tend not to make that much sense. So we make our own- using the target vocab and others that they know.  I 'borrowed' the pics from the British council site and heavily edited the story so that it's very basic. My ppt skills are weak (verging on nonexistent) so please feel free to make it better.
I read the ppt 1st with my co-teacher (doing the different voices), then split the class into parts (one group being the princess, one the monster etc) and I read the narration while they read their parts. Then we use the dialogue and have them prepare a role play in groups of 4/5.

Here is a 2 pg. handout worksheet which focuses on "What's this" vocabulary and also stresses that a noun is a person, place, or thing (some of the graphics were taken from a "Lesson Two Worksheet" posted here. (You'll need a font to print the worksheet, which is attached here.) I use the grammar rock 'Noun" video when handing this out.  There is a Powerpoint to go with the worksheet and another PPT for oral practices which focuses on the vowel theme (which was used in the first lesson with the Alice in Wonderland clip of the caterpillar "Who are you?" and contrasts w/the "What is this?").
