To all the newbies who've just arrived:

If you have no idea what to do, don't look at the lesson dialogue's key English points, but rather, the general topic. I think either dsob or devilmorgan already posted similar advice, too. I find that my CTs don't care what else I have in my lesson as long as the students have repeated or done SOMETHING with the key dialogue. Use plenty of pictures and don't be afraid to give the poor kids some Korean translation for vocab in your ppt. Personally, I find roleplays to be great ways to get students to talk.

Also, this thread LOOKS really enormous, but it really isn't. Just start from page one and read skim through everything. If you're just looking for ppts to crib, just scroll until you see those blue attachment links. Most of us posting lessons have labelled or named them all appropriately. You'll also get a better idea of what we tend to talk about and how. Internet etiquette is not something to disregard.

Welcome, and good luck!

@snuno2: Check out the other pinned threads in the Middle School Forum and then look up the publisher/author of your book. This one is for Orange and Green book with a Caucasian child on the cover.

This is just the Listening Part for Grade 1 Lesson 8 Noisy but Useful. I included some clips with Kevin McAllister's Mother from Home Alone screams "Kevin!" also a clip with 2pm Again&Again saying "listen" during slide transitions. Videos include a superman cell phone as well as a light saber (noisy but useful :). I placed videos from the cd-rom for my entertainment making it look like Yujin is really into Kevin and that Ann wants her to get away from him.

I only started teaching from the book this semester. I'm looking to ~~steal~~ borrow some things you guys have done. Last semester I did review bomb games to help students on their exam but never really taught from the book. Any advice? I must teach the listening and speaking parts but making it entertaining. So far its just been from the CD-rom. What do you guys have?

Hey. This is my 1st lesson which I had to give today. It is for Grade 1 Lesson 8 (Useful but Noisy). This was my first proper class after doing just introduction classes last week. I would really appreciate it if anyone could give me feedback on the ppt, and tell me what would be better. My CT is leaving it up to me to teach how ever I want, but as this is my first public school teaching job, I am completely at a lost. This forum has been a great help though, with giving me some pointers in the right direction, so thank you all very much.

Also, thanks to blinden for the Trigger Happy link. It went down great in class.

For Grade 1, Lesson 8 (Useful But Noisy) speaking section, which is all about what to say when making a phone call, I humbly suggest everyone show this funny video at the beginning or end of class.

I'm not even British, btw!

This is my lesson for Grade 2 Lesson 7 (Teen Volunteers). Like I said for my previous post I would love and welcome any feedback and criticism that you guys would have, so I can make better lessons from now on.

I want to thank alikaz for the video which you had posted. I used it in my lesson today, which I hope was ok, and the class loved it. I think I might start to make my own as they seem to be a great way to keep the class interested.

Thanks

You will probably want to find someway to get the students interested in the lesson too as the animations are batshit awful. I make a stupid video each week for Grade 2 for the Speaking activities and have a small worksheet to go with it, which hooks them in for the lesson and they've grown to love them. I've attached the video for G2L7A, it isn't the best as I CBF at the end of the holiday, but just so you can see what I mean.

This is 2nd Grade Lesson 7 Part A. I just made it Simpson Themed with a gap fill activity at the end. The students really liked it because it was the Simpsons. I also taught them the two character names "Bart and Millhouse". The underlined words "book club, peter pan and four are hyperlinked to pictures of those things. Also by clicking on one of those pictures it will take you back to the previous slide. :) Enjoy!

Enders, I had a look at the G1L8 ppt you put up. Unfortunately my rubbish office pc doesn't have sound, so I didn't get the full effect, but I liked it!Especially for a first ppt. What kind of production activities did you do with it, a role play of some kind?

kellyinkorea · « **Reply #387 on:** September 05, 2011, 05:33:18 PM »

These are the same books that my middle school uses and I was wondering if they are worthwhile. My students tell me it's too hard, but all students say that!

JazzRat · « **Reply #388 on:** September 06, 2011, 09:31:14 AM »

This is a game I made that worked really well with the grade 1's. My grade 1's are fairly low level and so the language is extremely simple and repetive just giving them the confidence to speak really.

I've seen that a few others have been struggling with what to do for Grade 3, Lesson 7. I finally just went the bomb game route. Attached is the opening PowerPoint and a FIFA bomb game (See original: http://waygook.org/index.php/topic,17094.msg134407.html#msg134407) that covers Part A for all pages Speaking and Listening/a bit of review from Chapter 5 & 6.

One thing with the opening PP, if you decide to use the "Let Me Borrow That Top" Kelly video, be sure to use a clean version. The quality isn't great, but the others swear a lot.

I've had to get my lesson ready quicker than planned so thanks to Ferdo06 for the basis and inspiration. I added Daejon's Simpsons bomb game to it and adapted the questions.

Hey where did you find those videos that match the script from the book? They're a hell of a lot better than the animations!

@Alikaz From the teachers CD not students CD look through the files and click on the folder labeled FLV and scroll through the video files. The ones I used were 08_03_01.flv and 08_03_02.flv You can use a downloaded a video converter or use an online converter to change it into .wmv or .avi to use via PPT.

Can you explain the rules of the game? I looked over your power point and I couldn't figure it out but your power point looks fantastic!

Wow that is excellent, thanks so much! Why the hell don't they use these instead of the god awful animations?! I played Grade 2 Lesson 8 Speaking A (the one about Mr Hunt cooking) and was so shocked by the poor poor acting. I told my kids never to speak like them!

@ Mnokes- Sorry but I really can't figure out how to do the quote thing so hope you see this
They work in teams- Choose a table number- and must "order" food. I read out the food names of each slide. They then say e.g. "I'd like to have chicken please" The next slide is just pure chance but helps to get the weak ones involved. they must say "For here" or "to go"- if they guess correctly they can get the money . On the food slide don't press home but press to get to next slide- only press home after the "for her or to go" slide.- Hope that was clear- enjoy

Does anyone have any ideas for any activities for Grade 3 Lesson 7 Five New Words At A Time? The expressions are things like "Do you mind if I...", "Feel free to....", "It was very nice of you to...." etc.

Thanks!

@dapto1
On the previous page I've put a listening gap fill, battleships type game and instructions for it, it worked really well and lasted about 20mins! (adapted it from someone else's lesson so thanks to that person!)

Just realised you don't need to do any of this, it is built into the software. Just push the Play button, (above the Record button) and a new window will open so you can choose the video you want to play

You're correct. I'm just using the videos to embed into the ppt for my entertainment. Ah technology and the simple things in life right?
