I made an action reading game using the sentences on p. 136-138. Basically, students read the sentences together and if they see a shape above the word, they do the accompanying action. It gets harder each round. They won't be able to do it perfectly, but part of the fun is messing up and getting confused

***Definitely not my own concept, my co-teacher used it last year and I'm pretty sure I've seen it somewhere on here too. Couldn't find the PPT template I saved so had to make a new one *sigh*. Planning to use it next Monday.

Happy Chuseok~~^^

Here is a list of past tense verbs.

Hi,

Here are two simple worksheets to check where students are in terms of using the past tense. These were a bit challenging for my students so I chose to give them time to do what they could and then checked the answers together. Afterwards, I had them copy both the present and past tense of the words into their English notebooks.

Works best if Worksheet 1 and 2 are split over Periods 1 and 2.

Cheers!

Basic introduction. Changing from present to past tense. :) Plus the summer vacation worksheet many people are doing!

I left a space where I wrote about my vacation, add yours!

Thank you!

I was able to plan two periods with the help of resources here with much thanks to those who posted. I created a simple, 3-7 minute activity for students to review their sentences. After a very active class creating a project and playing games, I used this activity (right after some book work) as a calm/ fun activity. It is a crossword that uses the phrases the students learned from the chapter.

Certain sentences don't exactly exist in the book, but we reviewed them. Others are variations of sentences. This gets students to pay attention to the differences between a book and many books. I decided to make it challenging by creating 3 different crossword puzzles that use the same sentences but are filled in differently. This way, at least every student was able to work on their own for most of the activity time instead of cheating or whole depending on another student for answers. The hints at the bottom are pictures and they have to write in the sentence of what the person did.

Note: Other than telling the students that their sheets are different, students must also be shown the difference between ACROSS and DOWN. On certain ones there is 1 down and 1 across, also a 4 down and 4 across. Later on, the difference between a book and many books can be drawn. Most advanced students don't need much help, allowing the teacher to actually monitor and scaffold the activity for students who actually need help.

(I let students help each other but you can make it a completely individual activity (at the same time, their puzzles are different but they figure out that similar pictures have similar responses).

 
It's very good!

My complete lesson for part 4, pages 136 - 137. 

Warm-up - what picture is missing?
Textbook Reading + Comprehension Questions
Textbook Read and Check
Memory Challenge - Text from book gets progressively more and more blacked out and students have to recite from memory.
Read and Roleplay - SpongeBob and Pikachu
Omok Game - Print the last slide.  Play in pairs.  One student needs to get 3 rows of 5 to win.

For period 3, Speak and Play. By now the kids are pretty bored with the textbook, so I created a ppt to introduce and practice the dialogues for period 3.
