Well folks, I've decided it's easier to get all my lesson plans together on a wiki page, so here it is if you are interested.

http://namhaemiddleschool.wikispaces.com/

The Schemes of Work are works in progress and will be updated when I can find time.

Thanks to all the people who have posted - I have borrowed a lot of stuff and got a lot of inspiration from everyone and will continue to do so. Thanks to hcbabyg84 for the information on the Lesson Objectives box. I got my friend to translate the first six chapters of Grades 1 and 3 books, so all of this will be going into my SoW for reference as I develop my lesson plans. Before long I should be able to catch up with myself as I begin to re-use lessons from last year and it should all pull together eventually.

Here's the template I'm now using for all my listening classes. http://prezi.com/yffr9qmjnaqa/listening-class-template/

Fairly straight forward, and avoids excessive panning, rotation and zooming. It will be pretty much the same for speaking class. Use it or lose it is the production phase, while getting ready is the engage. Let me know if you have any questions about it.

So this basically follows the book. Ideally each lesson would take at least 2 45 minute classes. Vocabulary, Sounds, Reading, and Comprehension are all sections. There is a BAAM Game at the end. Enjoy.

There is no Prezi on this address, or it has not been published.

also, why is this thread not a 'sticky' yet? it seems that plenty of people have these books.

Sorry about that, I had it set to Private.

Sorry to reply late, just saw the post about a planning session! I'd be down for doing this! Weekends are hard for me but what about week nights? Like 5pm? Meet at a coffee shop - Seomyeon??! I know it makes for a long day. Just another idea!

By the way, I'm in Busan too!

Thanks DarylM. For my advanced classes I was getting students to interview their friends and write down what their friend did. Your lesson worked well for the class that I just had. They were all reluctant to speak at first but I pulled out my magical bag of candy and they were a lot more willing to volunteer!

dsob · « **Reply #68 on:** March 16, 2011, 07:51:11 AM »

Yeah, good job DaryIM. My lessons are soooo dull at the moment. I keep coming back hear to steal the odd powerpoint or game to try and spice things up. If only I had more time with the students and fewer activities I had to follow in the book!

My third graders are using this book, too. My co-teachers told me I don't have to use the textbook, but I've never taught before and it's a useful guide. Thanks for sharing your plans, I'll be sure to share some myself if I come up with anything of quality.

Canucktim · « **Reply #70 on:** March 16, 2011, 03:04:54 PM »

I used this textbook all last year, still do! I have a bunch of materials centered around the the key sentences. here is my grade 2 lesson 2 lesson, ill get the rest up later.

Canucktim · « **Reply #71 on:** March 16, 2011, 03:07:32 PM »

whoops here's the ppt

PinkPrincess · « **Reply #72 on:** March 18, 2011, 07:26:38 AM »

Hi all! Attached is my Grade 2, Lesson 1B plan! I spend 2 weeks on each lesson; first week - part A and second week - part B! The lesson was a huge success with the students and the teachers. I've taken parts of lessons on waygook and adapted to the lesson below

Note: The PPT below has been modified for my low level students next week. I didn't play Kaboom with my high level. Instead, we did a speed competition with the conversations on the worksheet. The students loved it. I downloaded a stop watch. Their prize: chocolate pies (they crave those things)!!

Enjoy!

So, I absolutely hate using the CD for this book, but have to do listening and speaking warm up activities for the class. Anyone interested in making short videos with the dialogues for our classes? I think the students would be more interested seeing real people and it could be fun making them. I'm in Busan, so let me know if you're up for doing some movie magic.

Amber, this is great! I plan on using this for my C level students next week.

Now I have a quick question about the Kaboom game (never having played this game before I'm intrigued). Maybe I'm just groggy because its 9am on a Friday, but for Kaboom on the second slide you say "Read the paper and finish the sentence". Having not played before, would you mind also attaching this paper?? Or if there's just something I'm missing, would you mind explaining? Thank you!!

Also, I'm attaching my powerpoint lesson for this week and the one I'll be using for my A/B levels next week. Since there is SUCH a divide between my A, B, and C levels I really have to separate and change the way I teach for each level.

@iantrich - I did a lesson in which I got two teachers from other schools to read a joke for me. They recorded it on their MP3 and emailed it to me. They had a riot doing it, I had a laugh listening to it and the kids were mesmerised as they always are by the non-text book voice recordings.

I'd certainly be up for making our own video and audio recordings. Not sure how as I'm miles from anywhere but I'm sure it could be done.

iantrich · « **Reply #76 on:** March 18, 2011, 09:55:03 AM »

Most would have to be person, I would think, but recording our screens as we do a skype call would be pretty cool as well. Quick cuts for the different parts, easy. I'll start going through my scripts and seeing what is usable. I'm only going to do listening/speaking dialogues A/B. None of the activities, since they are lame and I can make better ones that the kids like.

I'm just looking forward to my transition to those parts to be smoother, rather than switching to itunes for the track, switching back to my slides for the answers and next question, then back to itunes and then back to my slides. Waste valuable time, and gives them enough time to get bored and start goofing off, only takes about 5 seconds for that to happen, haha.

Amber - fantastic power point. I was looking at it this morning and edited some of my previous work into it and just used it in a class. It worked really well. I didnt get them to play the game cos my coteacher for that class is a bit of a control freak / hard ass so I just used one of my previous worksheets. I noticed a couple of small errors, you missed the odd question mark on the 'why dont you...?' and 'how about...?' section. Thanks a lot Amber for this!

Ian, as your near and queer (ha!), I would be up for making some videos or at least having a go at some. I seem to just become a giggling wreck though whenever I try to video myself but we can see how it goes....

dsob · « **Reply #78 on:** March 18, 2011, 10:04:04 AM »

Also, longest thread and we only have posted up to lesson 2... We are clearly the most dedicated teachers

dsob · « **Reply #79 on:** March 18, 2011, 10:20:00 AM »

Are we doing the videos naked Ian?

I'm pretty sure that's breaking a few laws AND not any of the fun ones...
