J.L. Haas Middle School English 1 Review Section
« on: October 07, 2010, 04:35:18 PM »
Just thought I'd repay some of the kindness of the people's whose many lesson plans I have stolen ideas of by uploading my own so far. There's two for each topic except the first one

Lesson 7: At the Traditional Market
Lesson 8: Nasrredin and the Fish
Lesson 9: Our dreams

Also ignore the class scoreboard and anything else that doesn't make sense. Hopefully they can be of some use to somebody :)

A bunch of Lessons for Middle School grades 1-3
« Reply #1 on: December 10, 2010, 12:57:37 PM »
I teach at an all boys middle school. I have made some lessons, I thought this site has helped me, so I should contribute. Here they are listed with descriptions where necessary for the activities...

Grade 1-lesson 9- about different occupations
Grade 1-lesson 10- making plans and accepting invitations
Grade 1-lesson 11- comparisons and order. at the end of lesson call on groups to stand up and put themselves from shortest to tallest, weakest to strongest, etc.
Grade 1-lesson 12- shopping. this one went okay for me, make sure the students speak loudly at the end

Grade 2-lesson 9- asking what is wrong and how things are going.
Grade 2-lesson 10- idioms. For the game i put about 50 cultural phrases in a bag. i broke them into teams. a student pulls the idiom from the hat and they guess what it means. I had all the ones from the slide show and then some that were not for the more apt students. Draw a bullseye on the board. student who guesses write gets to come up and throw at bulls-eye. Make them stand five feet back and aim. Tally the points. student who last shot pulls from the bag and says it out loud.
Grade 2-lesson 11- family tree. this did not go so well, get them to talk about family
Grade 2-lesson 12- movies. i moved the preview to the end of the class, it gives them a goal. also remember adult movie is not middle school appropriate.
Grade 2-lesson 13- friends. for the game you can have them throw the paper instead of hot potato, which they like more. make sure everyone writes something and everyone has a paper before you start calling on people. tell them to be funny or mean.

I will attach lessons for grade 3...

Review of Lessons 1-3
« Reply #5 on: April 13, 2011, 05:23:23 PM »
My school has midterms after the first three lessons in the textbook are covered.
I made a very simple fill in the blank dialogue handout for students to complete in pairs.
They are to use information about themselves as well as complete some of the main expressions from each lesson in the textbook.
After the review, the students will play word-memory games such as "For dinner I ate..." (they must remember what all the students before them ate, in order, as well as their own choice. Whoever forgets or makes a mistake in order, or takes too long to answer must sit down). You can do this game with different subjects ("I went to school and saw..."). Keep going until only a few kids remain (and win).

Here are 2 review games that I play with the grade 1's. Chapters 1, 2, 3.

Please keep in mind that I only see my students once ever 2 weeks.. so I have 45 minutes per lesson to teach them.. making my material quite superficial.

Here's a review that I've compiled from many different peoples' contributions.  So, if you see your work in here, thanks a ton.  It saved me when my school put me in a really tight bind giving me one period to come up with four pages of review material that I wouldn't have even started until Thursday.  Gotta love those Monday morning surprises!

A power point to check together as a class will be following. Enjoy~!

Here's a fill in the gaps dialog that covers chapters 1,2 and 3 of the book - I used one that someone else had put up here and have changed it a fair bit to suit my classes so thanks to that person! I've also made a ppt to go with the gap fill to help with going through the answers after the students have completed the ws.

Also included a couple of review games for the 1st 3 chapters - Jeopardy and Simpsons Bomb game.

Here is a powerpoint lesson and Price is Right review materials for lessons 4,5 and 6, the Haas book, grade one. You will see I've used materials from this site, changed them a bit and added my own stuff! I used the powerpoint time/distance price is right game and just inputted my own stuff. These will be two seperate lessons, teams of 6 for Price is Right.

Enjoy and thanks to all those who have helped me as well!

Here is my Mario Review game for grade 1 lesson s 4, 5 and 6! 
I just love exam time!  It is so fun to have the students thinking that they are just playing when they are really studying.  I also preface this lesson with the guy who does the Beat boxes the Mario theme song on the flute!  My students love how red his face gets!

Here is my review that I have been using to review this week.  It easily takes up 45 minutes. I usually don't have enough time to go over the whole sheet before the bell rings.  I do a quick review of the kids words from each chapter (4-6) with the kids to start, and then pass out the worksheet.  Chapters 4 and 5 I made up, and 6 I took from another worksheet and powerpoint on here (so thank you!)  Hope this helps.

i'm doing lesson 4,5,6 review this week for their exams, and i've made a powerpoint quiz game that models jeopardy.
i've put a bloody lot of time into it since my work load has been light recently, and hopefully it shows.  the questions and slides are detailed, and i think i did the scaling of difficulty fairly well.  not trying to brag, but i just wanted to point out that this wasn't haphazardly slapped together.  i don't do games very often in class, so when i do them i make sure they go well.

a few things:
- i have my kids split up in teams based on their rows in class.  for answers, the first kid in each row answers the first question, then the second kid for the second question, etc.  team members can help the designated answerer, but the response must come from the particular kid from each team whose turn it is.  works well to get them all answering.
- all of the content in the questions is from the 'listen and talk' parts of the textbook and the activities book, with the exception of a few extra terms i taught them (specifically: apartment complex, convenience store, beside, across from)
- the presentation is optimized for the 1280x720 television displays in the classrooms.
- the sizes and spacing might look strange if you try to change the sizes, or don't have the fonts i used installed on your computer.  i've included them in what i'm uploading.
- the 'answer sheets' file is for the final question.  each group has to work together to write their answer.

- most importantly: the presentation and video clip (from an actual episode: gets them warmed up) are kind of big, so to save waygook.org's servers i've uploaded them to dropbox.  you don't need an account to download them, just the links.

the .ppt:

Thanks, the Pororo game is really cute! I'll be making some edits to the questions, so I can use it as a review for 7,8, and 9. I'll post it up when I'm done!

You do amazing things with the ppt games. I LOVE them  :D
