Hello everybody,

Here is my ppt. for Grade 2 Lesson 11. This lesson uses Duchess Rachael's fantastic idea about having students play Career Councilors (I wish I though of that when I did this lesson last year) with a few added editions. Also included is a Taboo game that I used last year with the students to help them remember career names (I found the game in a Waygook jobs lesson). I highly suggest you guys check out Duchess Rachel's original lesson because her crosswords and ppt. are awesome!

I like the PPT a lot. I'm going to take elements of that PPT and put it into this one I made.

This PPT has a, "Who am I?" activity that went well with 3rd graders for an open class I did, so I decided that I'll use it with the 2nd graders. The other part of the PPT is just dialogue practice based on the famous people from the, "Who am I?" activity.

How do you play the Guess Who game? I know how to play Guess Who with two people but I am curious what people do with larger classes?

@stammerjam

I have been playing it and i basically go around the class and makes each group as a question until they get to the point where by they think they know who it is. then they just put their hands up, this makes sure almost everyone atleast attempts/hears how the question should be rephrased.

I play 2/3 times with myself as the person from whom they have to guess and they I let the kids role with it only butting in occasionally to calm down the screams

for the loverly person who made this, it is awesome and my kids LOVED it. maybe because we havent played a game in a while.

now how on earth to teach "what a surprise" blahhhhhhhhh

Grade 1, Lesson 11: A

I start with the powerpoint, and unscrambling common exclamations or interjections (whatever the grammatical term is for it, I don't know).

I have students guess, then I explain or give examples for any they don't know.

Give the handout, (uses my name and some jokes I have with my students, so you should make your own changes).

PPT again to check the answers and to have students practice a little.

For the game, I made a grid style guns/bombs/hearts game. I taught them 10 little phrases, so put 5 vertical and 5 horizontal. The guns/bombs/hearts, I printed out about 25-30 of them and post them (turned over so students don't know what they're getting) on the grid. One student in each team has to stand up and say a phrase, using one on the vertical and one from the horizontal (example: Really? That's crazy!) Then, I turn over the coordinating sheet: either a gun (-2), bomb (-3), heart (+3), diamond (+5), nuclear bomb (all points lost).

Lesson 11 what a surprise grade 1 and lesson 11 giving compliments grade 2..

These activities worked well, but it does involve a fair bit of laminating and cutting, but once its done this lesson is so easy to teach just introduce the activity and potter about helping with pronunciation.

I printed the pictures with the answer on the back and students pick up a card and the others have to give the answer, whoever gets it right keeps the card and picks up the next card, this is in teams of 3 or 4.

Used the same format for both lessons, odd one out is just speaking, nothing to do with the text.

Do you remember MASH, that game we used to play as kids?  The one that tells us our future?!  Well, I thought it would be good to help the students practice "I'm planning to..." from Grade 3, Lesson 11!

The PPT starts with a review (since I have done the listening part the previous class).  Then there are some pictures I will ask the students about.  They are about ageing, the future, and fortune telling.  I may show some Youtube clip about a movie set in the future at this point.  Next, I will introduce the game of MASH and do an example round using my co-teacher or one of the few energetic students.  We will do the dialogue as a class, then the students get to do their own.  With the remainder of the class time, I will get students to read their futures to eachother.

I was really struggling with this lesson, but I think this should be good.  The PPT may need some jazzing up, but I don't really have those skills... yet!

Let me know how it works out if you choose to do this with your class!

Bye!

My school seems a bit behind in lessons! This is a supplemental lesson for lesson 9 1st grade

I took the PPT about currency from boll (awesome job thank you) and edited it. It now starts talking about currency and included some currency from around the world with a review of the shopping how much is it/ are they then the Ispy I'm looking for game. The currency in detail is US dollars. I also added so oh so fun math problems. yay! if you look at boll's original post they have a nice worksheet to go with this. the post is on page 24 or 25 I think.

I started the class by reviewing the singular dialogue then the plural some volunteers pick items to buy then I got into the currency ppt.
I could only get to the test portion. So this easily takes a whole lesson good for review.

Earlier I used the spot the difference (not mine just added to it) as a fun way to introduce singular and plural.

I'm also including a ppt I ALSO swiped from another waygookin genius for the 3rd grade lesson and adapted it for 2nd grade lesson 10. I added in some advice and changed it to would you mind. I am uploading it because the 2nd graders actually really liked the game.

keep up the hard work everyone!. . . . .so that i can keep changing your stuff!

Grade 2 Lesson 11:

Listen to the C part in "Listen In." Dora seriously sounds like she's a sultry vixen hitting on the wannabe chef with the dorky sandwiches.

One of my boys asked if that's the USA version of aegyo. Oh lord...

Grade 2: Lesson 10 (I think you should...) and Lesson 11 (Growing Up) combined lesson

PPT: Tell students to imagine YOU are a career counselor. Listen to the studentsÂ’ interests and give them career advice. Example: "I am smart and fast. I am interested in catching bad people." -- "I think you should be a police officer."

WKST: Review jobs through cross word puzzle. Take the career quiz to find out what kind of jobs they should have in the future. Finally, rate different careers (1-5) on how much you would like to do that job.

Hey Duchessrachel, can you explain how you play the tic tac toe game?
Cheers.

Hi Stammerjam,

I haven't used the game yet, but what I plan to do is play one game with the class versus me, one game with one half of the class versus the other half and then let students play on laminated color printouts of the game. The students can use whiteboard markers on the laminated printouts and just wipe everything off with a tissue after each game.

Guess Who? Celebrity Version!

This is for Grade 1 Lesson 11, but it can be used for other games as well. I uploaded another version of Guess Who? so this can be a review game of the review game =). I plan on using it after final exams since we all have a couple months left of teaching to plan after finishing the book.

What I did was change all the pictures to celebrities and changed the font as well. The functions of the game are still the same. The names of the celebrities from left to right and top to bottom are:

Will Smith, Beyonce, Rain, G-Dragon, Lee Hyori, Emma Watson, Daniel Raddcliffe, Justin Beiber, Kwon Yuri, Obama, Kim Taewon(nickname is Grandpa), Kang Hodong, Yoo Jaeseok, Sandara Park, Prince William, Prince Harry, Lee Minho, Lady Gaga, Ron Weasley, Christina Ahuilera, Rihanna, Michael Jackson, and Olympic Gold Medalists Kim Yuna and Park Taehwan.

Grade 2, Lesson 10 Review Game for, "I think you should."

I'll be using this PPT as a review of lesson 10 after teaching lesson 11. It is the same file as the Lesson 8 PPT game that I uploaded a while back, so it reviews lesson 8 and 10 at the same time.

Here are my Lessons for Grade 1 and 2 - Lesson 11.
Here is a worksheet I have the students do in groups for Grade 1 Lesson 11.


I have took all your wonderful lessons and combined them with a little of my own. Just wanted to share what I have made from all the great posters out there.

I can take little credit for Grade 2 and some credit for Grade 1.


@lb129 and jaysoon17 - Thanks for the tips. I will actually do both your plans. This week we play class vs. me and next week I'll do a bit of groups playing against each other with the laminated versions of the game.

Awesome! I needed something for my more advanced classes instead of playing pictionary. This is great!

I think I will edit this to review Lesson 10 and 11 for Grade 1 for next week... I'll post my results soon.

StammerJam......

After I teach and practice with the students the part two... i introduce the game to the class.. basically... I have like 5 rounds... I tell the students that each winner gets a prize...

SO students enthusiastically participate.... I/my coteacher take turns choosing the person.. and the students ask away....we write the name of the winners on the board... ...If they aren't really participating... I call out their names to ask questions...  now for the prizes...

at the end of class.. the winners stand up.. i tell them the following directions:  Raise your right hand...... stretch your right hand down to your left shoulder... now tap your shoulder   (pat your self on the shoulder for a job well done).... and i say Good job... congratulations.. you were great... see you all next time.... the kids whine for candy....but this week i'm playing review games..where they do get candy.. so its all in good fun...

Jakeyil, no offense, but keep your joke posts out of the teaching threads (unless a former student teacher in the U.S. has such a poor command of written English). There is a general forum for stuff like this. Consider yourself warned, because the next time I will report you to the mods.

Ehh!?!?   have I missed something?
