Here are the materials I'm using for the Speaking section of L2: What Do You Do at Home. 

The LP is pretty straightforward.  I modify some activities given the different levels of my students.  "Prepositions locations C.doc" is the same as "prepositions location.doc", which I use for A's and B's, except the text isn't chunked. 

Also, "location prepositions.doc" is the LP and the ppt includes a simple version of Connect 4 that I created for my classes.  Also, the Busy Beaver image and the Connect 4 image should be hyperlinked to Youtube videos that, respectively, play a Busy Beaver location preposition song and a 1990's commercial of Connect 4 that I used to explain the game to my classes.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Cheers!

Here is my lesson. At my school I do the communicative task section in the book. Okay so go through the ppt. The first short game is Thisisabedroom. I got this from the Epik orientation but changed it to fit this lesson. Have the students make a sentence with every category. When every student has a sentence have them stand up. Roll a die to eliminate a possible part of each category (just go in order-who, how often, what). The students must sit down if they have that part in their sentence. To make the boxes disappear just click on the box. The last one or two people standing win a piece of candy or another reward. I do three rounds and have the students write a new sentence each time. Winners must share their sentence. For the preposition game I have them get in pairs and to make it quick tell them that A will be the taller person of the pair and B is the other person. For the last section of the communicative task I have them write about their ideal Sunday. If the students share I give them a reward, or if no one wants to share I pick at random and reward the best stories.

Thanks, Brittany, for a great lesson.

I modified it a bit for my students, taking out the prepositions (I have a different prepositions lesson) and changing the game a little.

The word doc is for the game at the end.

I always appreciate collaborating with other waygook users. Thanks again!

Attached are the slides and lesson materials I have been using this week. I can honestly say I am immensely happy with how well every class has gone. All the students are getting involved and practicing their English no matter what their level is.

There is a little bit of preparation work but I think it is well worth the effort for the simple fact that I have found it to be so successful.

So the basic principle is this. I show some pictures of activities people do at home. We talk about the pictures and what the person is doing in the picture and then I read a sentence about the picture and get them to make the sentence using the cut out words (see pdf file).

The attached pdf file needs to be printed and each word cut out. I have been running this activity by putting students into groups of 4.

I get a real kick out of hearing students using English (repeating the words I just read out over and over again as they try to build the sentence). They rarely get the sentence right the first time round, but that is the best part. They then keep practicing and trying different variations of the sentence and move words around.

For lower level classes I give them some hints before I read the sentence. I might tell them “for this sentence you need toothbrush, toothpaste, clean and teeth”. The pictures in the slide also help to reinforce the sentence.

So far I have found I don’t need to go to my final activity (what chore do you hate), doing an introduction (Australian slang) and building sentences takes the full 45 minutes.

When you show a new picture (for the next sentence) the students will start looking in front of them for words they can use to build a sentence and stop listening to you. Force them to stop and look at the front of the room. Make them put their hands on their heads if you have to.

Oh, and in slide 9 (cooking) that is me. The students get a kick out of seeing me in my home cooking. I would suggest replace my picture with your own.

Cheers
Phil

Here's my introduction lesson to the household chores. I added some chores to the list in addition to the ones from the book. I used the PowerPoint to elicit a discussion with the students and to find out which of these they may already know.

After we went over the target vocab I showed them the video on YouTube of a dog cleaning a house. Afterwards, we discussed what chores "Blazer" did.

For the last part of the lesson, we played Pictionary as a class. I've included the word document I typed up. This was one case I encouraged students to speak freely, rather than raise their hand. It got a bit noisy but the kids loved it! I have a lot of artists on my hands.  :azn:

All in all, a simple lesson but it was successful and my students and I had a great time..

Here's the video I used:

Here is a Pororo board game I modified from another post. Works to review simple vocabulary. After the player rolls, the rest of the group asks "Do you do any housework?" and the one who rolled answers using the picture they landed on. Pretty simple.

The first slide is the game, the rest of the slides I printed and reviewed the vocabulary before we broke into teams and played the game.

So after looking through all the stuff on prepositions, here on Waygook, I found a ppt that looked pretty good, and I made some changes, added a few things, took some away kinda thing.

I've come out with a lesson that should be more than enough to fill the 45mins, it's a case of if there's too much, great! If your students are very high in level, there should be enough to cover them too.

Start off by a review of some prepositions they know, and practice them using the pictures and sentence prompts. (this part was already in the PPT).

Next, there is a listening activity (using https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byszemY8Pl8 if it doesn't load on the embedded file on the ppt... although I hope it does), and have students follow through the handout and fill in the spaces. There's a list of translated words for understanding at the end of the song, as some words may be a bit too ambitious for students to understand, although the song itself is fairly clear. There's a wordbank as well of all the prepositions in the song so students can find them if they need help with spelling.

After they've done the listening, and you've checked it through with them (answers on ppt as well), the reverse side of the sheet (if you're printing back to back) has a Hidden Pictures activity. The ppt guides students in how to find one of the items and then asks them to find the rest themselves. Give them about 5-10mins to find as many as they can, you can make it a contest if you like. The answer for the hidden pictures is also in the ppt too.

IF you've still got time after all of this, There is a picture of a circus, if you're focused solely on speaking/listening, have one student ask their partner where to find things and the other tell them using prepositions learned, and on the slide that follows, if you're wanting students to write as well, give them a copy of the picture (copy it from the slide - I'm using speaking although it says writing) and give them time to write.

After this, if you've still got time, have students then draw pictures of their bedrooms and then describe them to their partners and have their partners draw what they heard, and then compare.

I hope this lesson works for you as well as it is for me.

Here is mine. I I just added a lot of different peoples together into something that I'd like to teach for my second lesson. It's mostly work on prepositions with some review from the last section. It's absolutely too long but I prefer to be way over prepared.

Lesson 2: What do you do at Home?

Week One: Housework and Chores

Fill in the blank worksheet for reference, drilling, calendar practice, dialogue practice and charades.
We watched the video (posted above) to reinforce the key dialogue
Each student receives one Fill in the Blank, and one Calendar (returned to the teacher)
Charades, if time allowed.

For my lower level classes, I excluded some chores.

Lesson 2: What do  you do at home?

Week Two: Prepositions
Fill in the blank worksheet for reference, Hidden Picture Game, Carnival Toss Review.

I gave each student a Hidden Picture worksheet and asked students questions while they were working individually. I also gave them hints "The cake is under the bench, next to the man." When most of the students were near the end, I asked for volunteers to tell me where an item was. (I gave these volunteer teams a bonus throw for the following game)

How to Play carnival toss: Each team gets 1 minuted to describe each picture (I reviewed some of the items prior to each round with the students). I sentence = 1 throw. Everyone in the team must speak to award points.
I used a smartboard, but in the past I've simply drawn a series of circles on the blackboard. Both have been successful.

Thanks to waygook user "nzer-in-gyeongnam" for the guts of this lesson. I only changed photos, added gifs, went PPT crazy (as I usually do) and substituted some things.

This lesson is a mostly a review of prepositions- meant to follow an introductory lesson on them. (I have one posted if you scroll up and need one.)

BRIEF HOUSEWORK REVIEW
PREPOSITION REVIEW (with dog photos)
ADDITIONAL PRACTICE
PARTNER DRAWING GAME

Let me know if you have any questions.

Lesson 2
C Speak Out #2
Page 31
It's on the desk.

PowerPoint presentation.
For the game:
Students make a sentence. You click on the circle that they made a sentence about. If there is a monkey there, I gave them one candy. No monkey, try again (next student)

Extra PPT
This one I made last year.
Find Pikachu. Super easy, kids make a sentence and you click.
