Not very exciting as it was made for the text book...

*Opens better in Openoffice.org writter*
**May need some editing in Word as it was created in Openoffice.org & saved into Word**

Good worksheets. I like how you include Korea to localize the examples. Just a couple of tips:
Include the word 'wrksht' or 'hndout' in the file name. Also, it's better to call the 'teacher copy' the 'answer key' then type the answers in the worksheet as if a student were doing it. It's easier for the teacher to follow that way. I've also found that worksheets and handouts take less time if the instructions are presented in English and Korean. It makes them more useful to the Korean English teachers in your school.

Here is an updated version of a pair of PowerPoint presentations I put together a couple of years ago for my elementary-school students. They focus on the use of comparatives and superlatives and include examples like the shortest, tallest and oldest people along with the tallest buildings, fastest cars and biggest animals.

Best of luck putting it to use and enjoy!

And by the way, Nistowiak Falls is the tallest waterfall in Saskatchewan, the Canadian province I grew up in.

I find the middle school books to be a bit dry...If you have the freedom to push your own material this lesson seems to go over well.

The lesson is designed for 3rd grade middle school students.

Warm up video

Go over any needed vocab: What does "I'd" mean?
Warm up question: What people, places and things did you see in the video?

a short lesson/quiz how do you say, write the following numbers: 100 (one-hundred) 1,000 (one-thousand) 1,000,000 (one-million) 1,000,000,000 (one-billion) 1,000,000,000,000 (one-trillion) 1,000,000,000,000,000 (one-quadrillion)..... As far as you want to go...if you go higher notice the numbers eventually are oct, non, and dec...It could be asked where else do you see the abbreviation Oct, Non and Dec? (months of the year)

Finally after the lesson write on the board the task: If I had 1 million dollars I would.... share, buy, go, eat, see..Give an example of each of these things, pass out paper have them write it, practice it and present it to the class. All the 3rd grade classes I have done this with seem to have a good time with it and it seems to produce a lot of participation.

Great video find! I was planning a lotto winnings type of lesson and this will be great to add. But be sure to convert the 1mil USD in to Won, or they don't really care/get it.

This is a lesson for Comparatives and Superlatives all pretty obvious stuff.

I'm teaching a lesson involving superlatives and comparisons today. This is extremely useful, well-done, and interesting. Thanks a bunch! Also, as a warning to others, you might want to take out the "Kim Jong Il" references because it could potentially cause some controversy.

@gjpteachers - I know it's a bit late to be replying to this thread (it's the year 2014 now...) but I just wanted to say that I think this is one of the best lessons on comparatives and superlatives I have seen on Waygook. I like the diagram and the pictures (realia) and also the Korean translations. This could work for many different grade levels and there are enough fun activities to accommodate different learning styles. The lesson plan is also really impressive.

Not sure if you're still with Waygook, but wherever you are... thank you!!
