Here is a little "game" I made to review this lesson. Just a ppt of 20 questions. I put my students into teams and gave each team a whiteboard. Each question has a time limit so they just have to answer the questions in the given time to get the points.

The beginning is just a warm-up. Not a part of the game.

This is my lesson for grade 2, lesson 2. Over two weeks, I cover the listen and speak pages in the textbook. The first week, I do listening exercises along with a short activity. The second week, I do the Speak station and the Real-Life Scene and I usually have time for a longer activity. Both weeks are included in one PPT.
I have attached the PPT and the worksheets I used. Thank you to the previous posters for their material.
I have also included some midterm exam review questions that I went through at the end of the class. In the first half of this lesson, I had the students walk around and take a class survey. Then the students wrote a dialogue between the teacher and student discussing their favourite foods. I also printed a copy of the speaking game for the students to play if there was time. I have also attached a vegetable word search that might be of some use.

My materials for chapter 3

Part A – introduce the chapter and start listening, and do the unscramble worksheet (slightly adapted fromToribird above) to have them practice the giving instructions part. Then we moved on to the ‘Are you good …?’ / ‘Do you know how to…?’ part, going through examples on the PPT.

For my low-level classes, we just did basic action Pictionary / charades, having groups answer with a target question. My higher levels did the instructions speed game, in the PPT – show them four scrambled sentences, which they must unscramble on the mini-whiteboards, and then number them in the correct order.

Part B – review the previous lesson, and do the Focus In listening part, practicing with the relative pronoun examples in the PPT. We then finished off listening on page 49, and played Go Fish. It’s a bit of a mission to print / laminate the cards, but this game is a winner with all levels.

Part C – review / time-killer class. We started off with the pronunciation game, based on Say It Right on page 49 – one student comes to the front and reads 4 words on a piece of paper, while a bunch of minimal pairs are displayed on the PPT. Students must listen and write down the number for the words they hear.

Low-level classes did Mysterybox

Higher level classes did the Apple Swan activity. I had printed and cut out the instructions into strips of paper, and gave one set to each group. Then we watched the video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLXEiMIiF5E - , and in their teams they put the strips into the correct order. The speaking is fast and mostly well above their level, but after watching a few times most of the groups got it right

This is my lesson for speaking part A.

Intro - solicit students responses - ask them if they know how to to do various things. They tend to enjoy this - if they say they can whistle getting them to prove it can be fun - and if they say they can cook ask them what (maybe just ramyeon).

Then Play two truths one lie - first with yourself - then get the students to do it. You will have to personalize this section. I also found I had to help by writing examples on the board. get the students to write three sentences then read them out and their classmates can guess. This can be a very fun game that involves reading, writing and listening so is real hit in my opinion.

Finally if there's time an uncovering the pictures game I took from somebody else to practice the grammar with the present continuous.

Hi guys!  I made a Speak with your Partner worksheet for this chapter where the students can interview their partners and ask their partner what they are good at and what they are not good at and why.  For why I gave them examples on the slide, which is the second document on the attachment.  I really liked SimonV's "Speed Game." So I made worksheets for that game.  I'm going to make my students put their hands under their desk until I say GO!  And I'm going to get my co-teacher's help for that.  I really want all the students to be writing and participating.
