Anyhow, I have just completed the speak out section for Grade 1, Lesson 3 (Why? Because...) and I have uploaded them through my website (http://www.cocoinkorea.com> Teacher Materials).I hope that you find them useful/helpful and I want to thank everyone who has given my positive feedback on my previous lessons. Have a great day!Hey Cocoinkorea, I haven't taught the grade 1 textbook, but I find that if the 'speaking out' is a bit too basic I just teach both dialogues in one lesson. This gives me an extra class to teach my own, non textbook based, lesson. Did your co-teachers tell you that you have to teach from the text only?Hello,I was told only to do the Speak Out sections covering 3 class periods. Unfortunately that means that I have a total of 135 minutes to cover 1 page. That's a lot of time, so I break it up and add extra materials for each section.

Hey all, I have planned my lessons and use an internet program called prezi, I would strongly recommend you take a look - it's like power point, but free, online and I find it is much more engaging that power point. This is partly because power point can be overused and can become monotonous where as prezi looks interesting.I am happy to share my lesson / presentations with anyone who wants them. I use drop box to store them, if you'd like just get drop box, and I will share my folders so you can Sync my files online. If you use the following link I benefit from getting slightly more storage space, you will benefit from my lessons!http://db.tt/Y4atgY2
Here is a Power Point for Grade 3 lesson 3 'I'm glad to hear that'. I tried to introduce other ways to say this sentence and then got the kids to practice the textbook dialogue using these different responses.
I'm making my 8th grade, lesson 3 all about idioms. There are eight or so from the book that I will focus on, and next week maybe a class based on "Hit the Road, Jack". I'll post my materials when they're finished,In the mean time, here's a list of Waygook threads about idioms. There's tons of great stuff and I want to remind everyone about Waygook's great search feature.http://waygook.org/index.php/topic,7224.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,7429.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,2692.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,7375.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,7216.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,8172.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,763.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,765.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,761.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,7666.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,768.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,1474.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,1434.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,771.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,3524.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,7169.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,8006.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,3390.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,5785.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,5302.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,1205.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,4089.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,7182.0.htmlhttp://waygook.org/index.php/topic,615.0.htmlA small request to people who post amazing materials (and that's all of you. I haven't seen a file yet that I couldn't take something from!) - please make more descriptive names, especially if your file matches a certain grade or textbook chapter. There are a ton of files just called "idioms.ppt". It's really easy for these files to slip through the cracks.And to the Moderators - do you combine threads? A lot of these links are single posts that would probably be happier together. I'd do it myself if someone taught me how and trusted me enough to make the changes. I'm a little obsessive-compulsive, so sorting threads sounds fun.
