Unit 5 Part 1

I have attached my lesson plan and activities for listen and speak one.  I started with a Bingo warm up ... it got my typically sluggish grade twos a bit more excited about English class!  Then I presented the material on the board, and finished with Whispers (see lesson plan).  I'm a big fan of Whispers, the kids really get into it and the game involves saying the target sentences multiple times.  They try to cheat quite a bit, but you can always tell them that anyone caught cheating will loose points.    I didn't have time for the sentence game (credit for the writing game goes to a fellow waygook). 

PPT and worksheet for Unit 5 Listen and Speak 1.

I'm going to start with review of the key expressions "Let's... / Why don't we..." for making plans from grade 1, then brainstorm some plans.

Then I'll introduce the key expressions, and use the slides in the PPT to practice them as a class.

When we complete the worksheet, the lower level students may copy the first dialogue out, only changing the time and the place for dialogue 2 & 3. I'll have the higher level students create their own dialogues by mixing and matching the key expressions (Let's... / Why don't we... / Can you make it at... / How about meeting at...).

Once students have completed the worksheets I'm going to have students stand up in pairs and use the worksheet to have a conversation and make an appointment.

We will then create two completely new conversations as a class, and practice them.

We will then complete the bookwork.

Then I think I'll try the 'whispers' activity MCprotea posted (props to you).

Hope it helps!

Listen and Speak part 2 - Hobbies

Hi, I have attached my lesson plan and materials for part 2.  The presentation instructions are in the lesson plan (the "presentation" ppt is really just to help with the last game). 

I start with pictionary, then use the drawings to talk about hobbies.  Then we do the textbook, a human bingo and lastly I play running dictictarion (insanely successful activity!! And it has the bonus of focusing on all four skills: reading, writing, listening and speaking).

Hope this helps!

Part A -  I first had students fill out an imaginary week plan, then get into pairs and make 3 plans with their partners, using the dialogue structure.  Ended off with a speed game (speed games always go down a hit in my all-girls middle school). They either had to write down the digits for the times I gave them, put the unscrambled sentences in order, or do a running dictation and write the sentences in order. For some reason only one of the running dictations is left in the .word file, but easy enough to make new ones.

Part B - we worked through the textbook and did the worksheet as usual, then ended off with the hobbies / sports / famous people hotseat game

For 5.1 I did a bit of the book and some Powerpoint questions (15 minutes). The rest was spend in playing Running Dictations, which was great.


For 5.2, (I haven't done it yet) I plan to go over the last class review (in the powerpoint) and do some of the book activities in about 10 minutes. My kids hate the book and won't do the talking activities in the book anyways.

Then, we'll play a Giant Bingo Game (got the template from another waygookin), where they choose 25 words (out of 45) and write them in their Bingo sheets. When everyone has chosen the words we'll start the actual Bingo. The first 3 people to scream bingo will get points (for my reward system).

Then, I'll collect the Bingo sheets and with those same 45 words I'll play timed charades. The student acting has to go through 5 words in 1 minute to get a reward point.

Credit to fellow waygookins for some ideas and slides, hope this helps.
