I'm a bit stuck on this. It looks like it's similar to 2nd Grade Lesson 10 "What do you think?"
http://www.waygook.org/index.php/topic,68587.0.html

For the museum worksheet, I took it from a similar permission chapter here
http://waygook.org/index.php?topic=1835.0.html
Students roleplay a dialogue in pairs, one student chooses a museum and is a museum assistant the other acts as a tourist and tries to guess which museum their friend has chosen.

A running dictation, concentration game, and slightly modified permission game.
I don't think it's great stuff, but I'll get the ball rolling.

I used Jharris' excellent template to make a quick input ppt.

Unfortunately its the same lesson from Grade 2. This book is horrendous!

Yeah, its practically identical to Lesson 10 from book 2

I'm seeing a pattern here. every single lesson so far has been lifted almost straight from Grade 1 or Grade 2 books. This is fairly serious problem, given that around half the lessons in the Grade 2 book were lifted straight from the Grade 1 book.

This is the Worst. Book. Ever.

I digress. I spent the exam period preparing two lessons for this chapter. Part A covers "Do you mind if I..." and i mostly rehashed an old grade 3 lesson from last year for this (economics helps, from the old book). It's just a Frankenstein monster of someone else's work, adapted for this book.

Part B, on the other hand is completely my own creation. It covers "Let me..." and " I appreciate..."
I attached a variant of the Go Fish game. Rules on on the final couple of slides.

I did up a version of miscreantinblack's Free Throw Shootout, after using the one pjblake did for Grade 1, Lesson 3 to much success. It's solely a game to practice "Do you mind if I..." and responses. There are a few funny slides and I also added some more explicit instruction to the directions... like retrieve your own ball. Learned that lesson.

Here is Lesson 4, looking at the key expressions;
Do you mind if I...?
I appreciate your help/kindness.

For the first lesson there is a 'Chicken permissions game' I took from elsewhere. This game works well if you have the trust of the students and a fun class (I wouldn't advise doing this if you are new to the school). Make sure that in the answer cup there are more 'Sure, go ahead!' slips as it makes it more fun

Note: If you delete any slides you will need to alter the action buttons for the game too - I've included a couple of blanks slides for some leeway.

For the second week there is a Board Race for the students to correct the sentences.With my PPT plus a page out of the book the Race was about 5 minutes short for my classes.

Thanks for the 'Let me' / 'I appreciate' PPT. I've still got that older PPT reviewing 'Do you mind if' that I'll just recycle. I'd like to do the Q&A chicken game again, but I just can't with the same group of students (last year's second graders).

I lament the fact that there are no songs for "Do you mind I if" that aren't overtly sexual in nature. Also, I'll join the cacophony in saying this book is terrible.

Hey Tinsley,
I have used this Free throw shootout in class too and it worked so well. Can I ask how you used this particular one? Are the learners answering the do you mind question on the screen or are they simply reading the do you mind question from the screen? Sorry if this question seems slightly obvious, I just want to make sure.
Thanks.

For this one, they are just reading the slides. I have the sentences split into chunks and they are revealed on click. I think that makes it a bit easier to read. Some of my higher level students enjoyed taking a stab at it before the last part was revealed, to varying success.

Unfortunately, none of my kids laughed at my joke slides. :(

Thanks for the game! Your attached audio is from Grade 1's book though? Where do you download the audio for the books?

Tinsley · « **Reply #10 on:** June 01, 2015, 02:25:44 PM »

Sorry, the audio is actually from the version I altered which was for Grade 1. I think it's sound effects for the game (though I've never gotten them to work).

Here are the lessons I used for this chapter. I updated and changed some of the introductions and added a "Make A Sentence" game. There's also a few worksheets to kill time.

Make A Sentence Game:
Print the 4 pages of cards for each group. Sort students into groups of 4. Have the groups use the cards to make a sentence. Open the ppt and type their sentences to compare.
This worked well for my low level classes.
