I thought I would get the ball rolling on a  thread for this book.

My lessons aren't that great but it's better than nothing and should at least save you typing up the dialog.

Unit 1 Lesson 1

Thank you so much!!! I'm new to teaching, and I have no idea what to do with my high school students. This has helped loads.

Thanks a lot, I wonder how many others use this book? There's very little mention of it elsewhere if my searching skills are any good!  :D

My high school is apparently bottom in the area for English, so I think that's why they are using four year old books. I'm struggling to find anything on this book as well.

Lesson 2

The game at the end is from the user Rufus. I printed off a copy of the sheet just before mind sweeper and used that for the questions.

E.g.
Teacher: I lost my bag.
Student (in teams): I hope you can find it soon.

Then they get to pick a square.
Unless it's a bomb that team can then choose "pass or play".

Lesson 9 : Hanguel Catches the World's Eye.

The lesson layout is blatantly stolen from Andyroo, but I'm new to this so you'll have to forgive me.

The lesson is also rather simple as my students' English isn't very good.

Hope this helps someone, or saves someone some time.

Cheers Lukea.

Lesson 3.

This one had a bit of a mixed result. I have used it with two classes so far and some of the language is a bit tough. Not covered in the powerpoint are the phrases "Organized" and "been" which gave them little trouble.

One of the classes was in the 7th period and so I didn't play the final game with them and just went with an easier less educational game.
This morning I used the "who said that game" and they seemed to like it. Basically they all have to stand up and one by one they get 3 seconds to answer wether Yoda or Vader said it. If they get it right they get to sit down otherwise they have to wait until their next turn.

Lesson 9 Hanguel catches the world's eye: Class 2 (Listen In)

Not very impressive. It was put together quickly.

Hopefully someone can use it.

Here are lessons 4 and 5.

These lessons I only have to teach to half the kids and number 5 is from a complicated part of the book I wish I didn't have to teach.

The last activity for lesson 4 is inspired by an extreme sports power point posted by someone here on Waygook. After they finished I cut of the bottom half of that worksheet and posted a few of the best ones on my spare wall.

The word list for the find a word in lesson 5 is on the last slide. I put it there to make them wait until the end to do it. the secret message made up of the words not used is "candy please" so if you don't want to give the winner a candy (dangerous precedent) just delete the secret message part.

Sasa is the name of the footballer in the second last slide.

Thanks again for these, really appreciated.

I'm going to start uploading some of my plans soon enough, but I'm still trying to wrap my head around what I'm supposed to be teaching! There's still quite a lot of vague answers coming back to me about that...

Unit 2

Lessons 1 and 2

I didn't use a worksheet for lesson 1 just had them use the text book.

The final part of lesson 1 is pretty crucial for the unit and I kind of brushed over it in the powepoint. It was ok for the students who have done it so far (the better stream) before the second stream go through it I should upgrade it a little.

The what type of movie bit is formatting I got from a New Years resolutions lesson posted here on Waygook.

Ok, so here's my first contribution to this. It's my lesson for this week, I use prezi.com so I can't add it as an attachment. The games are lifted from various other waygooks!

It's aimed at my higher level first grade students and it's not too clear without the lesson plan, so here's the basic run:

1. The tongue twister is part of a weekly competition.

2. The black dots are for Criss-cross: one column of kids stand up, and answer questions, the row of the last one standing then takes over and stands for the next batch of questions, etc..

3. The circles with pictures are for scrambled letter lingo.I put the students into teams and gave each one a squeaky toy to use as a buzzer. First one to figure out the first letter of each picture, and then unscramble the word buzzes in for points.  The first one confused them, but once they figured it out we flew through this.
(Each word is from either this week or the past few weeks of lessons.
In order: 1. Small talk 2. Nursing home 3. Tend to 4. Put on 5. Nudge 6. Litter 7. Couple 8. Humble 9. Bother 10. Ceiling)

4. I demo the first picture, and then get "volunteers" from the students to demo the rest.

5. I adapted the Ninja vs Soldiers PPT to suit the number of kids in my class. You may need to add in another row, but the basic explanation should still be good. As my students are higher level, I left the questions open for them to change each time.

Unit 2 Lesson 3.

This was around April fools time for some classes hence the videos. Not everyone's style and the lesson would work fine without it.

Unit 3 lesson 1

This is the first time I play a bomb game with them.

I went with Shane's (Daejon) Star Craft because I like it's simple but pretty layout.

I do modify it a little because I don't like electronic scoreboards and such so if you want the really good version check out Daejons profile (recommended).

The questions are just a basic vocabulary test.

Unit 4 Lessons 1, 2 + 3

These are all quite short and only take up half a lesson so I could use the other half for a special project.

Lead In, Listen In and Speak Out.
