Lesson 4: Energy for the Future
« on: July 12, 2010, 07:52:12 am »
Simple lesson with an acting game at the end.  I tried cutting up the dialogue and having them resort it at their desks.  Didn't work.  You can try it; good luck.

i like this a lot - my kids r low level so i may edit the powerpoint a touch to make it easier for them...

ps i think getting them to act out the chore and then having the class guess what chore it is is an awesome idea - charades or watever?

For some reason my computer could not open up the PPT that was posted.  So I made a different one to help supplement the textbook.

I had a bunch of youtube videos of solar powered houses, co2 powered cars and algae for energy. The kids loved it.

In this lesson I use quite a few 'hidden object' pictures on the ppt. They worked great for the sure not sure exercises

Here's a quick Flick game, not sure what it's called.  I used the dialogs / sentences from the communication task. 

In pairs, students have to "flick" a marker (I use those big round magnets) from the middle circle onto the grid.  They have to do the dialog according to the picture.


 E.x:
A picture of a house & lock with a big X =
A:  Did you lock the door?
B: No I didn't. 
A: Don't forget to lock the door next time. 
B:I wont.

If they can make the sentences they get the points allocated in each block (the higher up they shoot the bigger the points, but if they shoot the marker out of the grid they miss a turn)  - They start in the circle every time.

I can't view either of the first 2 ppts.  Any reason why (some kind of text converter, compatibility issue?)

Cheers,
and thanks again for this awesome resource.

Here is a good Simpsons clip about alternative energy.  I show the first 7 min or so and have them answer questions.

Here's a ppt game where my wife is telling me - Don't forget to "salasalasala". I had the kids in teams, the first 4 to solve the picture riddle got a point, then we all repeated it together.

I took out all the pictures of me and my wife, so you'll have to add yourself, your students, or whoever.

Hope it's useful.

I use prezie. I never actually contribute to these forums, but they help me so much. So I think ill post most of the presentations i make so I can give back a bit.

http://prezi.com/v7vwxsdfpz5h/energy-for-the-future/

This is a prezie for this topic. I think its more interactive than powerpoint. If you've not heard of prezie, check it out!

I like that prezi a lot - I've been told to do it before but I get worried that the internet will fail (which happens too often) and I'll be left without a lesson! Is there a way to download it to my hard-drive?
