MY CT WILL USE THIS  STORYFOR THIS CHAPTER.LET'S GO SHOPPING

Thanks for this.  I made some changes to make the grammar better, and for the English to sound more natural.  Although, if anyone wants to reword it a little more, please post a different version.

Here's my edited version.

Thanks for the lucky wheel game. This chapter seems to be just a review of the last couple and I've already used up all my ideas and worksheets while teaching 10 and 11!

Here is the ppt I made for the first period. This includes all the phrases for the board game in the book. The last slide is a summary of these phrases.

Here is also a writing game I made for the 3rd period. The students see the picture and then they get 30 seconds to write the word correctly. They will play in teams and within their team each student has to take it in turns to write so that it is not always the good students doing it but the rest of the team can help them. I am not sure if 30 seconds might be too long for each word so I also have a slide for 20 seconds at the end of the ppt.

heres what i have for three lessons

Ooh, thank you for that game board PowerPoint.  Now I don't have to make one this weekend. 

I find that 20 seconds is a good amount of time for unscrambling and writing sentences with sixth grade, and 20-25 is good for fifth grade.  30 seconds might be a bit long for writing a single word, even with 4th grade students, but I haven't played a writing game with them yet.  Can you let us know how it goes? 

Hey hey
Here is a Super Mario game (Thanks again Sally for the template). Also attached is the song from How I met your mother as a motivational thing. The language in the game is simple but suited to my school so change what ever you feel is necessary.

Kids really pay attention to this game!

We've done the regulars such as the Mario PPT game.

Next lesson Tactical Tic-tac-toe is on the cards. Neat game for any question/answer vocab.

In this case, theres a 3x3 grid. Each row is labelled with an object (eg: doll, camera, watch). The columns are labelled with monetary values (eg: $5, $20, $100).
1) Player A asks player B what price <object> is using TL.
2) Player B responds with <price> using TL.
3) Player A puts their mark (O/X) in the relevant box where <object> and <price> meet up.
4) Then roles reverse.
Naturally 3 in a row wins. Unlike regular tic-tac-toe, there's a surprising amount of depth to the game when your opponent is suddenly allowed to limit your choices each round. If there's an odd number of students and you have to vs. one, its actually rather fun.

The boards I make by hand, so there's no upload unless I grab a scanner, sorry. They take <5 mins to make a master copy though: personally I don't even bother to rule the lines (I make them all squiggly to hide my laziness).

if anyone is doing period 1 (just introducing "let's") then feel free to nick this. It's a simple introduction ppt to help explain what "let's" means and the ways to answer it, and a rip-off of sally's bomb game.
job done.
a bit of simon says with "let's" instead of "simon says" kills a decent bit of time as well!
