@minamteacherThat ppt was brilliant! Wish I taught 2nd grade textbook just so I could use it. I sent it to my coteachers to use, and they really liked it.Minamteacher, what did you do for grade 3, lesson 9 "I appreciate it"? I feel like you must've had a good idea for it... :). Did I flatter you enough yet?

Does anyone teach these lessons WITHOUT powerpoint?How do you teach the speak out dialogue without flashy technology?
Does anyone teach these lessons WITHOUT powerpoint?My school's computer isn't working with some of the TV screens in my classes (I travel to different classes). I really need a back up plan if my ppt doesn't work. Had one heck of a class yesterday with power point failure. Eh. How do you teach the speak out dialogue without flashy technology?

Thank you both very much!thank you thank you....and i'd like to thank chris0206 for uploading that game.... however, i revised it by changing the rules and changing some of the "do you minds.." hopefully it's more interesting. just a warning if you download the original version that chris0206 posted, there are a few slides with grammar errors, the creator wrote "I" twice in many of the slides.it's now more of a truth or dare kind of game minus the truth part.and also, instead of passing a pen to choose the two players, i am having the class play the 눈치 game. if you guys don't know the 눈치 game your co teacher should know. or, just ask me. **** EDIT***** the previous version i uploaded didn't have the right animations set during the rule part. i fixed it. sorry bout that.Machoman and chris0206 - Thank you so much for your genius grade 3, lesson 9!! You don't even know how this has saved me! and Machoman ... that 눈치 game was a terrific hit!! If you know any other games like that one please share ... that just may help me survive my 3rd grade classesah thank you thank you, but i need help with grade 3 lesson 10!!!!.... feeling a little uninspired these days. anyone got any ideas??

It'd be really nice to see how someone teaches all of lesson 10 together. For me I only get ideas of two separate lessons in my head but I only have time for one class period for this. >.<Hi. thanks for sharing ...I tried to view the Prezi but the settings I think are set to private.

My co-teacher actually saved me! LOLShe gave me a racing game and a matching game. So this is what I am doing (and it's worked our really well for class and DEF keeps them talking):First I warm up with a 'stand-up/sit-down' activity. I ask the students to stand if they "have heard of" blah blah (beyonce for example) they stand if they have and sit if they haven't. Sometimes students aren't sure of what I am asking ... so then I go into the explaination of the keyphrase "have you head of...".Then I move onto the activity. I divide the class into either teams of 2 or 3 depending on class size. I will show them a picture of someone/something from the PPT, and say 'have you heard of ...", they race to the back of the class and find the correct response (printed on large slips of paper and scattered around ontop of their lockers). Once they have found the correct response they will bring up the slip to me and I will check it; if it's good they read the response using "Sure. Isn't it(he/she) ..." They will win a point for their team.I then move onto the next part of the lesson "can you tell me why". For this I used a 'find your partner' activity. I have printed out a 'can you tell me why' question slip and an answer/response slip. So I will pass out to each student one slip. They have to memorize their slip (otherwise they won't talk) and I recollect them. Then once they've memorized their slip - they will get up and mingle to find their matching partner.(it's a bit more challenging)After this activity, I go back to the 'have you heard of' phrase by using a musical chairs-like game. Depending on class size (i've used 15 students in one circle) divide the students to make 1-2 circles. Bringing their chairs into this circle find one student to volunteer or do some RSP game to get a student to stand in the center of the circle, removing their chair so now the circle has one less chair than people. The student in the center is standing and must use "have you heard of ..." and they can say whoever/whatever they want. The goal being they want to sit down, so they should ask a question that everyone mostly has heard of. Because the students sitting down must get up and change seats if they have heard of whatever was asked of them. They really enjoy this activity and will think of good questions so they can sit down.I got this idea from someone here ... so thank you! :DI hope it wasn't too long winded ... good luck.

I really need a back up plan if my ppt doesn't work. Had one heck of a class yesterday with power point failure. Eh. How do you teach the speak out dialogue without flashy technology?Hi Stammerjam.I downloaded your Grade 1 Lesson 10 PPT. It's quite good for your first powerpoint. As for the computer problems, I had the same problem with connecting to the TVs using the standard connection that all the other teachers use. It got to the point where my computer stopped connecting to all of the TVs! Do you have an HDMI connection to your school's computer? What the technician did was bring me an HDMI cable, which I now have to manually connect to the TV and computer for every class. It's a pain carrying the cable around everywhere and wastes a couple of minutes setting it up, but I can now connect to every computer. The HDMI cable costs like 20 or 30,000 won I think, and the school provided it for me. I hope your school does too, but if not, it might be worth buying it to save you prep time and make life easier in the classroom. PPT is incredibly important!
