Okay so my lessons aren't that creative. Just the basics and whatnot. I usually add more material after I finish the book work. Here is my lesson 1 Grade 2. I'm just excited that I finally got the teacher's book in today. :)

BTW this is my first time uploading so please don't judge lol.

This PPT is to introduce the new words and phrases from the chapter (speaking/listening section)

I try to theme the backgrounds to make them fit the unit title, and have dulled them down, however, if you're using .ppt instead of .pptx then you'll possibly have to remove the background image to see the foreground clearly on some slides. For this, I apologize, it's a formatting issue with .ppt.

I hope this proves useful for you and your class/es.

Here is my PPT and worksheet for the lesson.

PPT is self explanatory, start with an introduction into the lesson (apologizing), then use the PPT to gradually elicit the target language from students.

The worksheet is designed to supplement the PPT, so students will fill it in as they go. Make sure you give enough time for them to do so.

If your classes are a little more advanced, you can easily delete the PPT prompts for section 3 of the worksheet, and instead have them create sentences entirely on their own.

Regarding vocab, nothing really new. I stopped at every point on the PPT and elicited the simple past verb form from students, then wrote both on the board so the lower level ones could keep up. On the 'I stepped on your computer slide' it will pay to explain the verb 'step on'. The 'heavy traffic' slide is there because it's in the listening section of the book. The previous slide has students create a conversation about being late, so it ties in nicely with that.

Hope it helps.

My materials for Unit 1 Lesson 2. (Listen and speak part two).

Again, self-explanatory.

Starts with review then introduces the concept of urging someone to do something. At this stage you can introduce the sentence structure "Tell + 목적어 + to 부정사" (My mom told me to do the dishes). This sentence structure is supposed to be covered in this unit I believe. I'm not actually responsible for teaching it but it helps with the explanation of the lesson. Use that to segue into "Urge + 목적어 + to 부정사" to explain today's lesson, and the concept of urging someone to do something. My students were actually unfamiliar with the sentence structure, but picked it up very quickly. Student's didn't know the verb 'urge', so we covered the different forms of the verb just because.

From here it's pretty smooth sailing. Students should be familiar with the imperative form by now. You can explain that you can add today's target language ('Make sure you ~ / Be sure to ~") to the beginning of an imperative to form a sentence in which someone urges another person to do something. From here, it's just practice, then we covered the listening sections in the book.

With the creation of each sentence in the practice phase of the PPT, I stopped and had students make the "Urge / Tell + 목적어 + to 부정사" sentence to go with each slide. Eg: for the slide "I'm going to ride my bike." - "Make sure you wear a helmet." we then created the sentences "Mom told me to wear a helmet." and "Mom urged me to wear a helmet."

At the end there is a pass the ball game. A student is supposed to create a sentence "I'm going to ~", then throw the ball. Another student catches the ball, then says "Make sure you ~ / Be sure to ~." Depending on levels of students they can use the examples in the book / PPT, or try to create their own sentences.

The worksheet is to go along with the practice section of the PPT, before the listening activities.

I included a screenshot of the dice from the book in the last slide, in case anyone wanted to incorporate that game in their lesson.

올리버-uh. Cheers for the lessons. They have been great so far! Just got this as a new textbook last week so has helped a lot. Thankfully the lessons in Yin's books aren't as bad as my previous textbook. The kids really follow them a lot better.

Here are my activities for CHAPTER 1 PART 2 "Be sure to"

MEMORY / Time: 15 minutes

Students will get into groups of four and receive a stack of cards, which they will place face down.  One student will flip two cards over, if they match they keep them and that is a point.  If the cards don’t match, they flip them over again, then it is the next student’s turn.   The students with the most cards at the end wins. 
Warning: the three bottom right cards are me/Gwangju specific. 

BINGO / Time: 8-10 minutes

Warning: the attachment is just an example to get ideas (it has my name and my English class rules review).  You will have to go to www.print-bingo.com to make your own.
Each student will get a bingo card.  I will read out “I’m going to…” and one of the column headings.   Then I will read “be sure to …” and one of the five items listen under the columns.  Students check off the boxes as they are read. 

ROWS AND COLUMNS (No tech, no attachments, and so much fun!) / Time: 10 minutes

In the game all the students will stand up.  I will say an “I’m going to” sentence, and ask for a volunteer to give a suggestion (ie. Teacher: I’m going to ride my bike.  Student: Make sure you bring a helmet).
Once the student has successfully finished the sentence, he will choose rows or columns.  If he chooses rows, his entire row sits down, if he chooses columns, his whole column sits down.  Continue to play until all students are sitting.  Multiple rounds can be played.

No problem, glad I could help!

I agree about these textbooks being better and easier to follow than others...my last ones were pretty all over the place. These are pretty focused.

Here's a simple starter for getting the students to repeat the phrases of the text for Listen and Speak Pt1.  Since I was doing some of these for Gr 1 and Gr 3, I figured, what the heck.  Enjoy.  Blessed are the template makers.

Here's another one, continuing with the Listen and Speak Part 1.  The first one I posted was, "Sorry, I..."

This is the "That's okay.  It's really nothing." or "It's a simple mistake." responses.
Very simple, basically the other side of Pt 1 to keep them speaking.
Blessed are the template makers.

Hey, this game looks really great! But I'm not sure I understand how to use it. Do you switch back and forth from the game board to a phrase slide? If so, do the pieces stay where you put them? Some directions would be great. Thank you!

I go through the first slides with the phrases as a drill / listen / repeat.
When it gets to the game board, I do it one more time for each picture at the bottom, making sure they remember what phrase each picture correspond to.

Then, the class is divided into two, red and blue.
They say a picture's phrase and I click the red or blue half of the available square above it.
First team to get 4 in a row, wins.
Does that make sense?

Ah, yes! I figured the beginning was just a review type of thing but just wanted to make sure I was looking at it right. I think I'll be using this in a class next week.

Thanks for taking the time to explain it!

String Bingo and Spelling scramble

String Bingo is played by giving students a blank strip of paper with 10 boxes.
Students randomly write the 10 phrases (one per box) on their paper.
Teacher randomly chooses matching calling card (to complete the dialogue) and reads.
Students must identify the correct dialogue match.
Students will refer to their paper and if they have written the correct match on either of the end boxes, they may tear their paper to remove the called box.
Teacher will choose another card and game play continues until there is a student with only 1 box left. 
The winning student must correctly identify the match to their phrase to win.

Spelling scramble is most enjoyable played with a selection of Uno cards to include the chance to change points and to lose points (and/or bomb).

Here are my materials from lesson 1. PPT’s were heavily adapted from 올리버-uh’s great stuff. The ‘What’s the Word’ slides are also not mine

Part A - Spent a good 20 mins or so going over some rules and introductory stuff, so didn’t get round to doing any activity.

Part B I ended up killing the last 15-20mins using scattegories. Using the bogglesworld random student selector to choose a random letter for the categories on the PPT is my go-to activity (y)

I used올리버-uh’s worksheets.

Attached are jazz chant half-sheets that I've put together to recite with my students (and possibly acompany with a cajon) in lieu of doing the dull call and response excersise for "C. Speak Out" on p. 11. Emphasize the bold and underlined parts - recite at a tempo adquate for your students.

I really like the lesson plan, but what exactly was the worksheet that you used? This is going to be my second lesson (after the introduction class) and I want to make sure I do pretty decently well on it haha. Thanks so much!

Hi All,

I wanted to know how you guys decide how long to stay on aesson for and how you decide what to focus on?

Do you do every section for example  each section of lesson 1( section 1-7)

I am just really confused as to whether I go with the text book and how it has divided the sections or decide for myself. I am also trying to not follow the textbook as much as I can and make it fun for the students in whatever way I can

Your help is appreciated.

Thanks

Kefentse, if your co-teachers aren't giving you any direction/requirements (as mine haven't) then look at how much time you have with each class.
At my travel school I see each class once every two weeks, so I only spend one class period per chapter with them. I pull the most important phrase(s) from the speaking/listening section and make a lesson from that. My co-teachers take care of the grammar points/writing exercises. That's all we have time for.
At my main school, this semester I see each class once a week, so I will spend 2 periods per chapter with them. I can spend more time on concepts from listen/speak 1 and listen/speak 2 that way, supplemented with creative journal writing. I don't necessarily follow the textbook's order of activities, but do stick to the chapter's content.
