The main list exceeded the character limit, so I've started a new one for middle school lessons. Remember, lessons can be easily adapted to other levels, so if you're a middle school teacher be sure to check out what's posted on the other list and in the other sub-boards.
Because we have so many lessons in this category, I've put some of them in bold to show the most popular! *

Konglish / Korean English / English in Korean activity - students are given a paper with all the letters of the alphabet listed (this paper is attached in the post), and working in groups, they will come up with Konglish words or English words in Korean for each letter. Points are assigned, and I encouraged groups to choose words that are unique and that other groups didn't think of. Good for reviewing vocabulary, and good activity for a "throw away" class early or late in the semester. Also can be paired with Jellomando's Konglish activity (see post).
