Listen and Speak 1

I have attached the lesson plan and materials for LS1.  I will start by explaining the key phrases on the board and ask students for help with silly things, then use the pictures in the PPT to reinforce the material.   We will then do battleship and lastly the help me game.  I understand the Help Me Game is not directly related to asking for help, but I wanted to provide alternative uses for the "okay no problem" "sorry I can't" phrases, and the kids just love this game.  If you only have a few minutes at the end of class, the No Laughing Game goes faster than the Help Me Game and should be used instead.   

Here's my lesson for Listen and Speak part 2- Complaining. It's been a pretty successful lesson so far and all my kids get really into the warm-up game, which helps them continue to be active the rest of the class.

Warm-Up: Older or Younger? Doesn't tie to the lesson, but to the chapter title. Simply guess who's older between 2 celebrities. Mix of Korean and American celebrities. Also, I used the Korean ages for all the celebrities. (even the American ones). Did this using whiteboards and then had groups say a sentence out loud. 2 points per right answer.

PPT- introduce the language (upset) and the dialogue sentences. Then help student practice making problem sentences for the pictures. Or if your class is low just drill and repeat and with the help of a co-teacher explain the structure of the sentences.

Textbook (i have to do the listening sections A&B)

Make your own comic story- Depends on the class if you have enough time to do this. I would say 15mins is the minimum needed to complete the project.

Listen and Speak 2 ~ Complaining

A lesson on complaining ... I love the little buggers, but if there is one topic every level 2 student has mastered, it's this one! lol.   

I'll start the lesson by writing “Complain” on the board, ask students what people might complain about and write the answers on the board. 

Next I'm going to do a Running Dictation activity:  Strips of paper will be put all over the classroom in strange locations, students will have to find the papers and relay the sentence back to their partner.  After about 5 minutes, partners will switch roles.  The sentences are in my lesson plan. 

Following this activity I'll do a quick pass the pencil, attached (I threw it together pretty quickly so it's not great.)  And if enough time remains, I'll show the students a quick video and talk about the opposite of complaining: gratitude.   

Hope this helps!  Happy Chuseok! 

L&S 2: Complaining

I once again mashed together a bunch of the lessons in this thread, so credit (and my sincere thanks) goes to all of you!

I did however change some things, including the comic strip. Getting students to make those comics were like pulling nails. I had to threaten taking their break-time more than once. So what I've started doing is making it more of a running dictation game.

I introduce the pictures on the comic, and the corresponding sentences, to the students on the PPT. Then I paste the sentences all over the class. Students have to work in pairs, one running to find the sentence that matches the picture, memorising it, and running back to their partner who has to write down the sentence they tell them. After everyone finishes I have the ss read the sentences out loud as a class.

With the time left over I write 'headstone' on the board and have students think of as many words as they can using those letters. They write their answers on the board and the class with the most words will win the competition at the end of the week. Thus far the record is 50 words.

UNIT 8 LS 2

I started my lesson by explaining the target sentence.  I then wrote blatantly wrong sentences on slips of paper such as "Melanie teaches math".  I walked around the room and gave the paper to a random student who would read it, then as a group we would reply "I'm afraid that's not right" and give the correction. 

I then did battleship (attached, but I did not create the template).  Students then played battleship using the target sentences.  I drew the four ships on their sheet for them beforehand, because it took the kids way too long to do it themselves in class.   There are several personal references you will have to change "Canadians ..." "Melanie Teacher..." "____ students..." and "...live in Gwangju".

Lastly, thank you Kingeudey for the pdfs, I have attached a ppt of just the puzzles in a format that will use much less paper when you print them.  I printed each set in a different colour and laminated them, so when they were finished with one, I could see which one they needed to do next.  I turned it into a race (who could finish all 4 the fastest) and the kids loved it.   

Thank you for posting!

GRADE 2, UNIT 6 (Listen & Speak)

This is for Listen & Speak 2.

Warm-up: Older/younger game. Not relevant to lesson at all, but it wakes them up. I took this from amreeves, but the rest of my lesson is completely different.
Review: last week
Learn: New expressions.
Textbook: parts A and B
Worksheet: Unscramble the key expressions.
Speaking practice: They practice the key expressions with a partner using the pictures.
Game: Body Language. The telephone form of charades. I have 36 students in my classes and thought this would be a disaster, but it went really well! Even the low level students can participate. My kids really got into it as well.

Hope this helps someone!
