shoot; wrong activities, here are the GRADE 1 activities

I made this Powerpoint for Middle School Grade 3 - Lesson 5 - The Father of Video Art.

You may have to add some pictures for Thomas Edison and Eastman.

Here's the order in which I plan to show my videos:

1) First Mercedes Benz

2) History of Video Games

3) How to Play Beach Volleyball

here is a speaking activity for grade 1 lesson 5. it's based on an earlier activity by jamierlyon to get the class on their feet and running about whilst speaking some english. a recap of the rules:

1. Stick up the 6 character sheets in opposite corners of the class (put a blank cover page over each to stop the students from cheating).
2. Form groups of 6 in anyway you want (i also used groups of 4 and it works fine, 2 kids will just have to run twice).
3. For each turn, one of the group members runs to a character sheet, reads and memorizes the information, runs back to the group and dictates the answer to another student, the writer. once this is done, the writer passes the paper on to the next person to write and a new runner heads for a different character sheet.

The content is taken from the warm up (each character wants a specific birthday present - e.g. "Chris wants a new TV.") and L&S2 (what is each person doing? e.g. "Jenny is studying").

I've added 2 versions, one slightly harder than the other for my beg and adv students. The beginners version has the target sentences written out on the character sheets so the students only have to memorize. Each sentence on the answer sheet is also started for them). The slightly more difficult version has only pictures so that the students have to form their own sentences.

hope it's useful :)

Grade 2 Lesson 5 Listen and Speak 1.
Telephone Conversation

Each team of 2 get a strip of paper for role play. They write out the dialogue and then try to memorize it and then present it in front of the class.

Here is one of my lessons for Grade 2, Unit 4, Think and Write.
Do the text book stuff (well, I am required to, I suppose you don't have to) and the PPT goes along with that just to recap the comparative form and some prepositions (nothing fancy, really simple). Then I rocked this worksheet with all these ads from YouTube (to be found in the attached Word Document as there are too many of them to post them all here). It worked well with the higher level kids, but if you have enough time, you can make a plan with the lower level kids too.

My school is off on their field trip.. so i get off til friday: whoop!

Grade 2 Lesson 5 for beginners: My lesson one will just focus on getting basic telephone conversation and message leaving down. Here are the notes and a .ppt and a short exercise to go with it.

Grade 2 Chapter 4:  Advertisements, Page 54 Dialogue, and Prepositions

I am in charge of the "Practice with your friends" part of the textbook (usually Listen & Speak) portions. 

So, here is a powerpoint dealing with the dialogue on page 54. And then we talk about Advertisements (The last dialogue line is: "Why don't we look at other ads?"  :D)  It goes over Logos, Slogans, and Location (Prepositions).

This Advertising Advertisements lesson is based on the Daniel Ryan Keller yellow Middle School English 2 book (Lesson 4 Advertisements and Our Life)

I modified a Powerpoint uploaded by Catfish for my Advertisements Lesson.

First, I had my students listen to a Heinz Ketchup jingle (sound only). I had them guess the product being advertised. Then I showed them the video.

Next, I had my students listen to a McDonalds jingle/song (same procedure as above).

Then I used a Powerpoint to teach the rest of the lesson.

If you have time, you can show Youtube videos of funny commercials.

This lesson could be expanded into a separate 40-45 minute lesson on Advertising Jingles/Songs.

You could have your students make their own advertising jingles.

You could also do a full lesson on Funny Advertisements and have your students make their own funny commercial (video)

Grade 1 Lesson 2: Do you have healthy habits?

My classes are particulary roudy. They can never sit through a lesson. So I tried an activity that involved a lot of movements and physical activity.

In my lesson, I started by teaching them the target language.

Then i taught activities(healthy and unhealthy. I.e. exercise, drink soda, play computer game, etc.)

Then the activity...Classes get into groups of 5. and we played "pass the action". 5 students line up facing away from the student in front of them. Basically it's 'chinese whisper' but with actions. the last person needs to guess the answer...different ways to win, you can choose.

if you finish all 3 correctly in the allocated time, your team receives a point.
the team who answers the most correctly wins a point.
if you answer in English, 2 points. if you answer in Korean, 1 point.

@gyopo: good idea

here is a possible link for phone conversation lessons from another topic. this could be useful for Gr 2 Ch 5.

i have another suggestion for people posting on this topic. Let's try to put our materials up as far in advance as possible so that we can maximize the use everybody can get from it now. Not much use for me now getting a lesson plan on chapter 2 - although obviously it's still great for next year's teacher.

For Grade 1, Lesson 5,  Let's Communicate, Page 71

I used the AWESOME running dictation activity from another Waygook poster as the supplementary component at the end. I did this lesson as my Open Class last week. I did completely different activities, however, and no text book. The only thing remaining from that lesson in this PPT is the sentence construction component. They were the advanced class. This is for the intermediate students. Beware: You need to have chocopies (or something similar) on hand and some small candies (or change the PPT not to include that info, I suppose, but it REALLY worked this way). The instructions for the sentence construction, text book, running dictation and photos are in the PPT. I hope it's useful.
