Period one intro powerpoint.

Also thought I'd mention this: A homeroom teacher who specializes in English did her open class on this chapter (last period) which went really well (I'll be taking that lesson for the other 4th grade classes). You and your coteacher should start with a little skit where someone is "santa" and asks what you want... After this she did a version of "go fish" using some cards she'd printed off the computer (pictures of the vocab). Next the class brainstormed different scenarios where you can use "What do you want?" (restaurant, birthday, santa, etc) Each group of students had to make a short role play about one of the scenarios and present it to the class. It went really well and the kids seemed to have a lot of fun!

the first ppt is just a review. i use it in the first lesson to help the kids get familiar with the expressions.

the spongebob ppt is a word scramble (using the food words and expressions from this lesson)

the fill in the gaps ppt helps remember the expressions.

the car race ppt is a game that uses all the words and expressions from this lesson - i plan on using it in the last class.

(apart from the first ppt, the others were all posted by other users - i just modified them to fit this book/lesson.)

hope it's useful to someone~!!

i also used this video to get the kids motivated. despite the other dialog the expression "i want (some ice-cream)" and "i want (my mommy)" is used so i thought it was enough. besides that the kids thought the video itself was hilarous!!


This is a modified version of something another person posted in the 6th grade/lesson 12 forum... I thought it was a good idea and something that my kids might enjoy. Each student get's a three panel comic strip template and should make a story using the target language. The ppt shows an example of how to do this. Will be using this for a writing activity.

This is my introductory PPT and lesson. I highlighted when to use some/a/an when requesting food and drink. I didn't give an explanation because my students wouldn't understand but I'm getting tired of hearing "I want some hamburgers" rather than "I want a hamburger".

Next on the PPT is a 'what's missing' game that I took from another poster from a grade 5 lesson (thanks a lot, it went over well).  Have the students respond using the target expression "I want a  ________" when they guess the missing food/drink.

Finally, a card game that I also took from another poster and adapted for this lesson. I included the directions at the end of the PPT and the actual cards in a HWP file. Basically the kids get into groups of 4,5,or 6. Teacher gives them the set of 8 cards. The kids play 'rock,scissors, paper' to see who goes first. The entire groups asks the winner "What do you want?". The student answers randomly and draws one of the cards. If the card matches the student's guess then he/she keeps it. If the card does not match the guess, the students returns it to the pile. If the student draws the bomb card he/she loses everything. My 4th graders loved this game a few months back.


Restaurant role play is a great way to use the vocabulary. By using the cut out cards in the back of the book, group the kids in groups of 4 and assign one to be the waiter. then they can act out a restaurant scene. then they can change roles so that every student can be the waiter at some point. Kids had a lot of fun with it.

Standard bingo sheet for the first period.  I'm going to teach them when to use "some" and "a" just like the 6th grade chapter "May I have some water?"

I used this song as motivation for my 6th grade lesson What do you want to do? and I think it works well with this lesson too. It's the song from Charlie & the Chocolate Factory - I Want It Now

Does no-one else have an issue with this sounding rude?  If someone walked up to me and said "what do you want?"  I'd be surprised.  I know that teaching "what would you like?" would be counterproductive to the book and not helpful for their exams but I want to at least add a verb on the end so it doesn't sound so abrupt.  My mum was particularly straight on teaching us to always use please and thank yous so I may be more sensitive but I'm pretty sure it's across the board that "what do you want" is like "hey, what's your problem?!" / "what you lookin' at?".
I'm out of time for now so I've quickly taken the previously posted intro ppnt (thank you!!!) and edited it to "what do you want to eat/to drink/for your birthday"..  I'll add next weeks lesson later just in case anyone wants to use it...

This is the second part of the lesson "What do you want?" where I review the vocabulary and phrase.
Every class I start with an optical illusion and make the children write down every word that comes to mind about the picture. They love it and builds their vocabulary.
I use the ppt (some parts are borrowed from previous posts) and review (some, an and a) when to use them.
Then I use the "practice" slide to go over dialogue and vocabulary. I cut the slide out into strips and we practice it as a class after each strip is read a couple of times by different people.
I combined the "pass the ball mario game" with the "find the star game". You start the pass the ball game and when the music stops the ss with the ball has 2 chances or guesses to find the star (each ss has a point score card for the semester in my class). They then get points on that if they find the star in 2 guesses. The key is they have to use the statement on the top of the slide to reveal the star.
This is a repetition class mainly, so that the students know how to use the vocabulary. Maybe it's helpful for someone else?!

Here is a powerpoint I used on day one. It would work well as review/practice on other days as well. It's a hidden picture ppt. Before I started showing the pictures I had the students say "what do you want?" then the student who figures it out says "I want some ____" then the whole class says "I want some____."  I hope this is useful!

Warm up videos from Sesame Street:

 Cookie Monster in Library:
http://youtu.be/W3ZHPJT2Kp4

I want the big hamburger:
http://youtu.be/UsjrQxZSHrs

New waiter:
http://youtu.be/LogoZh3ceFc

Italian Restaurant:
http://youtu.be/5TJznmLsZAs

Each one has to do with "I want ______." and "We have_______."
Use the videos to focus students' attention, afterwards ask them questions like "What does Mr. Smith want" and "What place is this?" Also, I attached a file of the dialogs from the videos using target language. We did a few role-plays in class.
Kids seem to think that Grover and Cookie Monster are brothers. Overall, they really like the little segments.

Not exactly the target language, but we used this as background music during game time and the students really enjoyed it.

GRADE 4 - Lesson 12 - What Do You Want (Green Book with Green Globe)
« Reply #15 on: October 28, 2011, 03:26:53 pm »
Two power points for introducing / explaining the grammar structures in this unit.

- Part 1 - Focuses on 'I want + noun '  grammar structures

(singular countable nouns)

I want a
I want an

(uncountable nouns)
I want some

- Part 2 -  also uses the above grammar and introduces

I don't want .....


Two games:

1) Chase the Vocab - Made by another user .... I have simply added pictures relevant to this topic.
Kids love this game.

I play giving them two points for correctly remembering where the pictures are and minus one point for incorrect guesses.
I make them use the relevant grammar at all times.

2) Flash cards for the whisper game

I have three teams, so print and cut three copies of the flash cards. The students line up in three lines. The person at the back collects a sentence from you (the teacher) (e.g. I want some ice cream) they then pass that sentence down the line (verbally - by whispering) ... the person at the front of the line has to collect the correct flash card and bring it back to the teacher. Quickest team gets three points ... second team two points and last team one point.

rotate the people who were at the front to the back of the line after each turn ... then all the students get a turn at finding the flashcards.

to add some spice to the game, only use one set of flash cards .. so its a real race to get their first. Or turn the flash cards upside down to increase the amount of time it takes them to find it.



kids love it.


Enjoy.

Patrick

i modified ppt guessing game (downloaded from here.)
just click an alphabet then the board are removed showing the hided picture(food)
ask to the kids guess what the food is

I am going to play Food Pictionary with my students. I have played this with other grades for similar lessons, and the kids LOVE it.

Write some easy foods on some slips of paper. Be sure to include Korean foods written in Korean. Divide the class into two teams. Call one student from each team to the front and hand each one a slip of paper. Both students start drawing at the same time. If someone on their team has a guess, they must raise their hand. When called upon, they must say "I want X." If correct, they get one point. If wrong, the students keep drawing. My students can easily play this game for 20 minutes.

Yes! Thanks for the idea. I'm going to play this to close the lesson next week.

I think we'll play 2-3 "rounds". Round 1 they will have to answer "I want a/an/some _________". Round 2: "I don't want a/an/some _________." And Round 3: "Do you want a/an/some _______?" That way we can review all the key expressions as well.
