Hi,

[This lesson has been greatly modified--look below]

This is a lesson I made on Emotions about six months ago. It's most useful for low level High School students, though it could be adapted to suit any level.

I had a lot of success with it. I recommend supplementing it with a worksheet unless it cuts into game time.

The lecture should be somewhat interactive, and you might need candy (I always use it). The game works wonders... and you can adapt it to any lesson plan you desire.

Credit for the "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" game is creditted in the PPT itself. As for other credits, I honestly can't remember if I stole any aspect of this lesson play from Waygook.org so if I have, politely tell me and I'll credit you here. While I think this is one of my creations, I can't be too careful.

Hey,
Welcome to the board. Thanks for coming over and for sharing these.

You modified my idioms game. I was wondering why some of the questions seemed so familiar.

I like your lesson!

Oh! I wasn't sure who I stole that from. Thanks for it.

It's a great template... I get a ton of usage out of that. It generally gets one or two edits and run throughs with each group of new students I encounter.

Hi everyone. It's that time of year again! Time to recycle and reuse old lesson plans again.

I remade this one and I'd say the quality is a lot better this time. There are two lesson plans now, one for the low-med students, and one for the high students.

I am reusing the game this year, too, but I'm not uploading it as it is already attached up top.

The worksheet for the high students might take more than ten minutes, in which case I don't plan on doing the game with them (I know the girls will be done in time for the game but the boys won't as they're often distracted by shiny things). The low level students shouldn't need any more than five minutes on the worksheet.

Supplement this lesson with whatever textbook material you're covering that day. Enjoy!

You do great work man! I also have improved my poetry lessons from last yr among other ones. I need to finally get around to posting them. Keep up the good work. ^^

i'm a little late on this so i dunno if i'll get a reply back but here goes lol

how do you use that millionaire game exactly? do you have one student answer at a time and go around the room and let each student answer a quetion? or do you have teams? or what? how do you do the points, 50/50, call a friend and ask the audience...or do you actually use those? how does one win? what is their prize?

thanks!

using this lesson requires you to make a few things yourself but i thought i'd go ahead and put the idea out there.

i've included the lesson plan and powerpoint presentation.

if you want you can make these items for the students to use: laminated vocab. sheet, laminated emotion pictures, word search and feelings quiz.

mokporandi... because I teach High School and the students have the self-organization skills of a drunk panda, I find that the simplest way to play the game is usually the best.

I usually break them up into two, three or four teams based on rows. When a question pops up, I smack the table with my hand. The first student with their hand up gets to answer the question. Because I have 40-45 students in a class, I usually make it hard for them... like I make sure all their hands are all the way down, then I act like I'm going to slap the table but don't ("AHHHH!!") or I point out the window and say "look out there! What is that?" then slap the table when all of them are turned around.

Student answers question... gets candy (if not in the earlier rounds then in the later rounds). Team with the most money wins. If I have enough candy I'll give it to a whole team. I find it works best this way :)

"students have the self-organization skills of a drunk panda" lol! hilarious description! (I teach high school too!)

I have a horrible text book for my 2nd Grade high school students and have been trying to make the content more enjoyable. The unit we just finished is about feelings/emotions, and I had this big list of vocab the students needed to learn. So, I made a jeopardy as a more fun way to review/test their understanding. I split up the vocab in to different categories of questions: Picture (they had to recognize the word from a picture), Synonym (recognize the vocab from the similar words), Definition (recognize the vocab from it's meaning), Example (recognize the vocab from an example sentence), and Explain (student must give meaning of the vocab to win points- teacher's discretion for correct answer). This may be interesting for a class who is studying a similar topic, as it covers just vocab and not anything else from my text book. I'm not sure how difficult this will be for others, but I think it may be on the more challenging side. For lower classes they were allowed to keep their text books open, although this still meant they had to be able to match the Korean meaning with the English one. Another teacher could maybe create a handout with the vocab and go over meanings with students before hand, and then play this game as a review....regardles s, spent a bit of time and thought this might be worth sharing with the world! Excuse me if there are mistakes/disagreeable answers!
Enjoy

Forgot to mention, there are two BONUS questions, one on Definition 500 (answer=amused) and the other is on Example 400 (answer=satisfied).
In these questions, after selecting the slide, the first picture you see is the "BONUS" picture. At this time, the teacher asks the students how much they would like to wager. The next slide (typically the answer slide) is a picture with fill in the blank sentence. The blank is the answer. There is no slide showing the answer, the teacher must reveal to the team. Pretty straight forward, but just in case! lol

I realize it's been 2 years since you last posted this, but the lesson seemed great and I was hoping to use it with my high school night classes.

Unfortunately the .ppt 's that you updated (the low and high level ones) no longer work... at least on my computer it says the files are incomplete and thus cannot be opened. Would you consider re-posting the .ppt 's? Thanks.

The Father, you might try re-downloading them? They worked for me ...

Wow, you're lucky... I haven't logged in here for a long time and I just so happened to do so today. Haha.

Anyway, I used to use OpenOffice to make a lot of these documents, you could try using that. However they *should* work with Microsoft office...

CellarDoor · « **Reply #16 on:** March 13, 2011, 08:37:13 am »

Hm, I couldn't get the files to open either. That's unfortunate... At least I got the med-low lesson plan/worksheet to work okay.

« **Reply #17 on:** March 18, 2011, 09:25:57 am »

The PPTs definitely aren't working for me- the files are corrupt. The Word docs seem fine. I'm downloading Open Office now to see if they'll open with that.

« **Reply #18 on:** March 22, 2011, 10:21:32 am »

I'm just chiming in to say I'd also really appreciate updated powerpoints as they're not working for me, too.

« **Reply #19 on:** March 22, 2011, 10:35:02 am »

Incognito84: Thanks for checking in on the board. I haven't had any luck getting the files to open either through OpenOffice or Microsoft Office. It continues to say that the files (.ppt) are corrupt. All the other files are fine. I have tried downloading them on numerous occasions however the same "files are missing" pop-up continues to ... well... pop-up.
