Great idea for the Gr.1 Lesson 11 Speaking Mojussa! Saved me hours of head scratching..thanks! And thanks to those who posted about what to do after 3rd grade exams.

I made another Kpop Slam game because I'm at an all girls school and they went NUTS last year when we played Part One http://waygook.org/index.php/topic,15003.0.html ...that was before I noticed Part 2 had been made http://waygook.org/index.php/topic,24163.msg174416.html#msg174416

I plan on using that one maybe towards the end of the year. It's great. But I also wanted to share mine which has a lot of different and current songs, but the ZIP is about 484 MB because I use longer video clips. (I always felt they wanted a little more of the song). Does anyone know a way to post a file that big? Tried FileFactory and Hotfile, but they would just crash.

Thanks again for all your great ideas!

Thanks for the shout out.  Did you make a version of K-pop slam?  I too change my version of Kpop slam 1 to my liking. I haven't used kpop slam 2 yet but then again I'm leaving in December so I may not get a chance.  So did you make your own version or are you planning to use the part 2? 

Sorry, this is what I meant to post - the General Knowledge quiz.

This is amazing, thank you so much!

Here's what I've been doing this week for Grade 1 - Lesson 11 - Speaking. My co-teachers mentioned they appreciate that the worksheet and PPT make clear the politeness differences between "Close the...Can you close the...Could you close...Shall we...Let's"...stuff like that.

The PPT borrows from a great Telephone conversation PPT by Dsob, and I used Mojussa's recently posted awesome Kpop listening game for the last bit of the class. Works well. Thanks.

Does anyone have any ideas on grade 1 and 2 lesson 12 reviews?

Grade 2 Lesson 11

Reported speech isn't included in the listening/speaking section of the book that I'm supposed to teach, but my co-teachers don't really mind what I do and so I planned this lesson. Reported speech is covered in the grammar section of lesson 11, so it shouldn't be a totally foreign concept! Please bear in mind this lesson is more focused on writing skills, and it was much more successful with my advanced class (my students are divided into two levels).

I've included the materials for both levels. The only real difference is that in the lower level sentences, the subject is always 'I'. In the higher level, students have to transpose sentences where the subject is 'he' or 'she'.

Here's the presentation:
High level: http://prezi.com/qqewc5k0a8hf/211b/
Low level: http://prezi.com/evchr9iloabe/211b-low/

(if you use it, be sure to change the name from Jon!)

I went though the grammar with the examples in the presentation, drawing a table on the whiteboard showing how the sentence changes (under the headings person, verb, 'that', sentence)).

I then gave them a worksheet to complete, with space for them to write their own sentences. This was followed by a listening exercise based on a conversation between me and my co-teacher. After completing the listening, the students had to create 2 senteces to report on what I thought and what I heard in the conversation. (Again, change the name on the worksheet if you use it!)

KT   Wow..the weather is so nice today, isn't it!
NT    Yeah, but I think that it will be cold soon.
KT   I think so, too. By the way, did you hear the news?
NT    No, what is it?
KT   The Wonder Girls' will sing on Music Bank this week!
NT    Are you serious?
KT   Yeah.. they came back to Korea.
Jon   I'm so excited.

The kids really got into the game at the end - I think I'll use this concept again. The game is a 'soccer game' based on an activity on Boggles World (http://bogglesworldesl.com/grammar_soccer.htm) but adapted for a larger class. I split the class into 2 teams and gave each table a whiteboard (10 tables total - 5 for each team). Using the PPT to display a random card, the kids have to change the sentence and write on their whiteboards. The fastest to hold it up can move the ball forward one space. If the sentence they wrote is incorrect, the ball moves in the other direction. I drew a soccer pitch on the board and moved around a small soccer ball to show who was winning. Obviously if they reach the other side they score a goal!

Grade 2-Lesson 11: The tortoise who talked too much.
Sentence bingo and clap/spin/jump/scream/duck sentence game.

These templates were demonstrated/used in the EPIK October '11 orientation.

Sentence Bingo - It uses a key phrase from the speaking section of the textbook ex. "Today I played basketball. It was exciting, wasn't it". I was not 100% sure how to form the key phrases in this template, but I think it works. Students have to choose any one box from each column to make a sentence and write it down on thier paper. Students stand up and then the teacher removes boxes until one random sentence is left. The student/s left standing, with the same final sentence, is the winner of sentence bingo.

Clap/sping/jump/duck/scream sentence game - Students all stand up. Teacher demonstrates how to play the game (in order, each student must say the next word in the sentence. Ex. Student 1 "Playing", student 2 "sports", student 3 "is", etc.), and if there is an action symbol they must say the word and also do the action. The key phrase I used is from Fun Time A, page 176. I practiced the first slide a couple of times until the students could understand that this was a listening, speaking, and TPR game, and that they had to pay attention (at least to the people in front of them) to play. Once students understood, then I moved to the second screen, if they got the word wrong or the action, then they are out and must sit down. I offered the winner/s, last ones standing candy. You can copy the last slide and add it to the PPT and add more actions to make it more difficult. For my basic level grade 2's, this game ended up taking 20 minutes (a lot longer than I anticipated).

Hope these can help someone who is still on Lesson 11.

Grade 1 - Lesson 11
(Key phrase from Fun Time B, page 156 and Function File 3, page 157).

Here is a hearts/bomb game. Using the images in the game, the students (in teams) must make a sentence related to the picture using the phrase Can you ..., please? For example, with a picture of a dog playing the piano, the students can make a sentence like "Can you help me play the piano, please?" The images are all funny pictures of animals and people so it should be interesting for students.
I played a version of this with my grade 6 at elementary school last week and it went really well, so I altered the key expression to fit this lesson. I am going to play it next week with middle school grade 1's. I would like each team to use a whiteboard to make a sentence and then the first team with a proper sentence can get the point/bomb. My advanced class might be able to make a sentence without writing it down, but I am not counting on it :)

You can really alter this lesson for different expressions to fit the pictures. Enjoy.

This is a Grade 1 Lesson 12 Kungfu Panda bomb game going over Listening and speaking parts.  Credit goes to Lynda En rookiewaygook  for this marvelous game.  Also thanks to Devil Mogun because I used many of her questions because they worked well for this lesson from the Fruit ninja game she posted.  Make sure to download everything and put it all into one folder opening it from your desktop.  Also move the SERPNTB.TTF font to the font folder in your control panel.  Both 2003.ppt and 2007.pptx are included.  Lynda's original template and original movie trailer can be downloaded from this post as well http://waygook.org/index.php/topic,25279.msg181994.html#msg181994
 

 

G2 - L9-11 Exam Review Super Mario Brothers Game

Hi everyone, here is a Super Mario and Luigi game reviewing lessons 9-11. This game is not your typical Mario Bomb game, it is much more animated, with sounds, and is more exciting to play than the normal Mario games. I got this template from a teacher at my elementary school and think it is very good. I just changed the images and the questions to suit my class review. My students are writing exams on December 6th for the whole week, so I am using this next week to review for the test.
I will be making a grade 1 review using this template and hope to upload it by the end of the day or Monday morning.

I hope someone can use this game or the template.
Best regards.

Wow Cansom there is A LOT of crazy stuff going on in this game, Thanks for uploading it.  I too will be uploading some other review games for grade 2 and another final review for the remaining lessons for G1.

This is a Grade 2 Final Review L9-11 Starcraft.  This is basically all the key points in the beginning of the lessons.  I did many editions to this game because I linked it with a world of warcraft bomb game.  This was made Shane/Daejeon and I am thankful for his skill in games for this Miguk Chuseok American Thanksgiving.  His original post and other games you may want to use are listed here http://waygook.org/index.php/topic,9490.100.html

This is my lesson for Grade 1 Lesson 12 The Garbage Museum. I broke the lesson into 2 parts and taught part 1 this week. The worksheet worked well for the more advanced classes, but the lower level classes where not interested in. Thanks to Mojussa for the Kung Fu Panda game. The kids loved it. I will use it again next week and just change some of the questions around.

For next weeks class, I am going to do a fill in the gap with the song The three R's by Jack Johnson. I haven't tried this kind of activity before so I have no idea how it will go. If you think it might be too easy or difficult, please let me know!!

And also, if anyone has any ideas for Grade 2 Lesson 11 The Tortoise who talked to much, please help me out. I am really stuck with this one...
