So first go through ppt. The first slide has a video clip from Barney for the song "You are Special" (Starts at 22:00 BUT only show if you have extra time, which you probably won't). Play mystery Box game. (That was enough for one 45 minute class) The second part is a  4-corners game I made for an introduction lesson but modified it for this chapter. Just bring 4 notecards with the numbers 1-4 and pull them from behind you back to eliminate corners. Sometimes you can play two games. If you run out of questions just play with the notecards and have them pick a corner at random. If you want them to practice the dialogue for "My favorite ____ is ____ because ______" Just ask random students in their groups before you eliminate a corner. If they can't answer then they are also out and must sit down. Last person standing gets candy!

This is my lesson for unit 5, part 1: my favorite things.  It is an altered version of BritannyB's lesson, thank you!

Thankyou to you all for posting lessons for this book - it's been really helpful (a lifesaver sometimes too.)

Here is my own version for this lesson.  Its an adaption/rearrangement  of the ppt's already posted with a few additions of my own.  My CT told me I am too far ahead, that I only need to finish lesson 5 by the end of this semester, so I decided to keep this lesson pretty simple and only look at part of part 1 - What is your favourite......? 

The lesson basically went like this:
Tongue twister (toy boat, toy boat, toy boat and then Big Ben blew big blue bubbles. Simple but effective ones.)
Introduced 'favourite things' with MY favourite things (which I left on the ppt, change as you will.) It got the kids talking, trying to guess my favourite things. I laughed every time at the reaction that kangaroo steak was my favourite.  Some want to try it now.
Went through the rest of the lesson/ppt. I brought up how I use Autumn instead of Fall, and was pleased with how many kids knew the word. With the gifs of the 'athletes' i got the kids to vote on which was their favourite.  Thankyou so much who ever found those originally (I can't remember which of you it was sorry) but they were brilliant.  The figure skater one is gold.

I spell 'favourite' with a U (as you can see), but not all the "favourite"s in the ppt are spelt that way, I didn't change them when they came from the other ppt's here.  Maybe you want consistency I don't know. But not one of my kids questioned it. I'm not sure if that was good or bad, but I was waiting for someone to point it out, that's why I left them.  So please keep that in mind.

Then the free point shoot out game.  I found this on waygook a few weeks ago and cannot remember where it came from, so thankyou and credit to whoever it was who originally put it together, I tweaked it a bit.  I simply played one half of the room against the other, first hand up goes next, must say the phrase and then can have a go.  I just used a scrunched up piece of paper and an empty printer paper box and shoot from the centre of the room, but it worked perfectly.  The first class didn't get a point at all, but they kept trying.  I had kids who never spoke in class trying, which is a win for sure.  It's really basic but it got the kids talking.

(Addendum: I have since found where the shootout game came from and would like to acknowledge its creator as one miscreantinblack. http://www.waygook.org/index.php/topic,52929.0.html)

My co-teacher has asked me to create key words and phrases ppt's for each lesson. This is shown at the introduction of the unit to teach the students the words that they may not know, that they will hear or see in the Speaking/Listening section of the text.

This should take about 5-10 mins to go through, asking students to guess the Korean meaning, discussing different parts of the pictures and reading the sentences aloud.

Here is a power point and jeopardy game for Lesson 5.  It includes part 1 and part 2.  Enjoy!

Is there a way to make the Jeopardy game shorter? I guess you need a different template, right?

At my school we divide up pages 82-83 and pages 84-85 for each lesson. I've noticed the PowerPoints on here seem to combine these two chapters. For the people that have posted their PPTs, does your school combine these lessons or regularly combine both Listening and Speaking parts before the Communication task? Also I don't do the Communication task at my school, that is done by the Korean teacher on their teaching time.

I was wondering the same thing.  I do the same as you, Lawrence, and even then I'm ahead in lessons for the year, I only have to do 5 lessons this semester.  So now the rest of the semester is filled with review games/activities.

Really? That is crazy. There are another 5 lessons in the book. Considering we started in March, at least I did, if you add another 5 lessons then that should bring us to October or so before this book is finished. I only have the first part of this book on my computer but I will be pissed if I have to just do games from July onward, even though games are a big part of what we do.

ppt for listen and speak 1 - C Speak Out
What's your favourite ___?

Thx these are really cool and it really works!

Here is Listen and Speak 2 - Agreeing and Disagreeing. You'll need a bunch of coins for the coin flick activity, I just used all the 10 won coins that I never seem to actually use. The students quite enjoyed this topic as it gave them a chance to argue with one another. Have fun.
