(천재교육 Cheonjae/Frances Sohn) Grade 5, Lesson 9 - "This is My House"

This is a final class lesson/review powerpoint I made. I used a pokemon template and combined it with some other versions of things I saw as my kids are very high level. I just divided the class up into two teams and called on them randomly. They were very excited about getting team rocket, oddly enough. I also made a worksheet for the other students to write down the answers to the questions even if the other team was answering them. If they had them all at he end, their team got extra points as well.

Thanks to all contributors!

Here's a PPT for Around the World. Feel free to edit as needed ;)
Also you'll need to download this Classical Mongolian font to read the Mongolian correctly. Here's the website for the font.

Where is the Puppy Interview
This is a speaking activity for the first period.

Great activity idea! I took it, redesigned the worksheet, and made a lesson centered around the activity. Attached are all the materials I will use for the class.

Some notes:
-For the practice section I will ask the class "What's in the ______?" before revealing the strange animal that's there. I'll take two or three sentences and then reveal the animal and choose a student to make a sentence about it. Then I'll prompt the whole class to say "What a surprise!"

-For the puppy activity I have a system for rotating in my class. If you want would rather have your students walk around and talk to whoever you might want to have your co-teacher change the wording in the Korean version of the worksheet. In my class there are four rows of students. The inner second and third row move to the next seat (moving to their right) when I ding a bell. They sit with their new partner and do the activity until I ding the bell again.

Here's a coin flick game. I used it for period 2, but you can probably use it in another period.
I made it so they can practice saying the key expressions.
The box the coin lands in has a vocab word that they will use to make a sentence.

On the board, the words are in green, blue and black.
If the word is in GREEN, they say "What's in the ______?"
If the word is BLUE, they say, "There's a _______."
And black is just, "What a surprise!"

I found this Plants vs Zombies template on another thread and just edited it with pictures from the pirate grid game for lesson 1.

Hi everybody!

I am uploading my lessons, PPTs, worksheets etc. that I've made and collected for this lesson.

I want to thank everyone who has contributed over the years, whether it was with PPTs, worksheets, or ideas. It has been very helpful to see what other teachers implement in their classrooms.

I like to plan ahead as much as possible, so at the beginning of the semester I make/collect/organize/edit/print the bulk of the material for the year so that I can have things ready to go at any time. I'm sure most of us can relate to having days where we can't make time to edit a PPT or organize a lesson plan due to sickness, the dreaded sudden schedule change, etc. This place has been a major help for teachers in a fix. I would like to help as well. I've finally stopped procrastinating and have made time to post.  Some of the materials are originally mine, and some are edited versions of other people's hard work.

NOTES:

I've extracted most of the material in the PPTs that is specific to my school and my personal point system, but I've left a few nuggets in there that can be easily deleted if you want (There's a police officer that pops up occasionally to police grammar. My kids like to pretend as if they'll really be arrested for bad grammar. Silly I know, but I left a few in just in case you want to use it. But if you find him lame, feel free to dispose of him ). I've incorporated gifs, pics, etc. to hopefully engage the students a bit more in the lessons. My kids seem to love them, and I hope yours do, too! 

I think everything is pretty straightforward. I try to make it as simple as possible because my kids are mostly low level.

Another teacher, Tara Albert posted her materials in bulk as well, which motivated me to post mine because our organization style is similar. (Thanks, Tara!) A few files of hers in particular served as great templates for my games. If you have already downloaded the following file from her, here's what I changed so you can know what you're getting:

Writing Elimination Game ----> Writing Elimination Game with HIDDEN SMILEYS:
I changed her PPT by adding gifs, pics, and hidden smileys in addition to making a writing paper, so that the answers were predetermined, and each student had their own separate specialized paper.

I have included printouts (labeled PRINTABLES) where necessary. This includes a homework writing assignment that I made, a correlating test paper (I chose words that I thought would be useful), and game papers for the PPT games as well.

I have also included a slew of MTV CRIBS VIDEOS, which have proven to be a BIG hit for me in the past. The ones I’ve included have been sorted and don’t contain any big problems for the classroom – i.e. drugs, sex, etc. The Maroon 5 video shows Adam Levine’s girlfriend in bed, but she could just be taking a nap for all they know. Tony Hawk, Manny Pacquiao, and the Teen Cribs vids were my kids favorites. This lesson definitely extends past the recommended 7 periods for me. My kids need more practice, and they find this lesson in particular to be a lot of fun. If you have any questions please let me know. I'll help in any way I can.

That's all for now. I hope this helps! I know it can be a hassle to make a lot of this stuff, especially if you have to do it all by yourself. But don't give up! I've personally seen just how much of a  difference it makes to my kids when they're presented with something somewhat polished as opposed to something that I just threw together.

Happy Teaching, everybody!

Continued from the last post. This is the last video post I can make for now. The other files are too big to attach.  If I find a way to shrink them, I'll add more later. In lieu of that, I am attaching a few Youtube vids that will help for now.

As always: Happy Teaching, guys.

Here's a song I wrote for talking about rooms. My co-teacher put the video together from summer camp footage. Also including a lyrics and a PPT version of the song (sorry that the PPT's a bit drab T.T)

This is a different version of the Telepathy game my ct found on indischool. Instructions are found in the PPT. The is great for 5th period as students have to read and write the sentences. It's used as an all class individual activity.
Show the students the slide and have them pick an option and write it down. Once they answer go around the class asking group members to select a color (for points). For instance group 1 pick a color, everyone who has selected the correct answer gets points selected.

Make your own dream house for the later periods of the lesson. I like to see their creativity.

Matching card game for period 5 made from my previous coteacher. You'll need thick paper and to create several sets (one for each group - they can play in groups of 4 or in pairs).

This is a "Key Expressions" ppt I made to introduce the terms for Lesson 9 period 2. Also modified a previous "Flying Sentences" ppt to shorten the length and incorporate more of the term, "What a surprise!" Included these two videos to demonstrate a real life house of the future. I fast forwarded the Hong Kong clip to around 1:30.

Here is a great video. THe guy actually walks through every room. Talks about every room. Talks about everything that will go or is in the room.

STOP THE VIDEO BEFORE THE 3:25 mark. Right after they walk into the office and talk about the green room. He talks a bout a statue and the women has boobs, and he says "boobs." Probably no the most appropriate thing.

They stop giving the tour of their apartment at that point anyway...

I found this video on YouTube for Lesson 2, the future house. The house featured in the textbook is outdated. My kids loved this house, and the fact that it is in Korea and run by Samsung was really impressive to them.

A nice little game I made for practicing "There is a ... in the ..."

The locations of the puppies should disappear after finding them but for some reason I can't get the bed to disappear.

This is a telepathy game I made for the lesson. Students have to guess what is in the specific room by writing down a sentence. When the correct sentence is shown, students are to say the sentence out loud along with "What a surprise!" I added some additional vocabulary (slide, basement, hamster) as well as some other sentences to make it a bit more interesting for the students (and myself). Hopefully this benefits someone else. There isn't a whole lot to do to practice "What a surprise!"

Writing practice.

Students will be placed in groups and given a white board, a marker and a picture (I printed out pictures of google image results, for a more personal effect you can print out pictures of your home).

Students will follow the prompts "There is a...." or "There are...." and create as many sentences as possible within a time limit.

More creative sentences are given higher points.

While I had to help the students while they were writing (giving them new vocabulary and explaining some grammatical issues like "There IS grass.") I was impressed with how much my students could write when given the chance outside of the text book.

This activity could also be a whole class one with the picture on the board and the point system taken away.
