Mystery Caller Worksheet
« Reply #1 on: October 16, 2013, 02:03:21 pm »
I made this worksheet titled "Mystery Caller".  The students read the conversation between the "mystery caller" and the person.  The "mystery caller" gives clues as to who they are to the person.  Students must guess who the person is based on the clues.  I am going to have them work in groups of three or four.  I tried making the conversation as real as the beginning of a telephone greeting.  Question #3, you will want to modify, as it talks about the hometown where I teach.  You can change the Starbuck's to where you live.  I hope that this helps someone.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make this lesson stretch two weeks? I can do phone messages one week, but not sure what to do the next week. Thank you!

I made this crossword puzzle through a crossword puzzle generator based on lesson 10: Sand Notes.  Note: (No pun intended  :P) You will want to change the clue for 16. Across, as it has the name of my school. 
   I hope that this helps some of you with this lesson.

I've prepare this very simple crossword puzzle and PPT before I start the "Speaking" part. Students will need to write the Korean meaning of the vocabulary and complete the crossword puzzle.

Hope this helps :)

Mlatte, do you have the answers to this activity? 

Thanks.

I just put up the answer sheet to the Mystery Caller worksheet---oops, sorry, should have done it earlier.  To question #3...you will want to change it to your own town or city, as I name the city where I teach.

Hello :)

I used the mystery caller worksheet but I wanted to do a little more so I started with a ten minute youtube video(attached to the prezi)  I found and had the students watch it, and then do a fill in the blank worksheet based on  the script from the video. After that, I checked the answers for them and split them into groups to figure out the mystery callers. If there was time (like for my advanced classes) I let each group choose a name of a famous Korean person from a cup and them they had to make their own mystery caller convo. I added a new script to the end of the mystery caller worksheet so they could just fill it in.

Here is the Prezi:

I focused on the Tag Question grammar in this chapter.

First I went through the ppt explaining tag questions.

Next we practiced by playing the Fly Swatter game- divide the class into two teams. One person from each team comes to the board where I've stuck a number of laminated cards with tag questions on them. I read a statement and the first person to "swat" the correct tag question earns a point for their team.

After this students fill in the tag questions on the worksheet. Correct answers together. Then they must walk around the room asking different students the questions. If a someone answers "yes" to the question, students write their name beside that question.

I teach the speaking section over two weeks, so this week I focused on telephone conversations.

The LP includes a song to warm up (Call Me Maybe!), a PPT teaching section re: basic telephone conversation *kakaotalk themed!, a sentence scramble activity, and then finally a pass the bomb game. Thanks to Paul for the classic Pass the Bomb Template!

For the sentence scramble activity, I have 6 groups of 4 or 5 students in my classroom. You could do this in partners, it just requires more printing and probably more dialogues.

Because it's the first week of the topic, and most of my students are lower level, I wrote dialogues for the pass the bomb game. But if you're students are higher level, I would definitely make the conversations less scripted and give them a chance to think on their feet!

Materials needed: Cut up dialogues, a soft ball/paper ball

Lesson 10
Part A – we did an ‘odd one out’ game as a warmer, then got into the listening part and did the crossword worksheet. To practive the phonecall vocab we did a few Mystery Caller slides, adapted from Mlatte'‘s idea above. For the game, we did ‘Famous People Hotseat’ game, where one group at a time would come to the front, and attempt to explain who the person in the picture is, to a student with her back to the TV. That student had to answer with ‘May I speak to XYZ?’

Part B – odd one out warmer, then bingo. I had student randomly number their squares, then listen for the corresponding sentences. We then did some listening, and focused on tag questions, using various examples in the PPT for them to guess.
Finally we did the Minecraft boardgame (template found on waygook - http://www.waygook.org/index.php?topic=27157.20

Part C – review, finish off listening, tag-question Pictionary, and mystery box  bomb game
