ride a skateboard watch movies play drums dance practice martial arts practice Judo These coincide with New World 2 book. Overall, I would not recommend this series. New Word is all over the place. One page presented continuous tense,( He is riding a skateboard.) pairing nouns with verbs (play baseball, go to the movies, go swimming, do homework, watch a movie, etc.) and using hobbies to describe people plus comparisons (John likes skate boarding but doesn't like fishing.) Just remembering makes my head hurt. While New World is really inappropriate for elementary students (the publisher recommends this for middle school to university) , high level students can be kept busy answering all the questions, while the teacher monitors them. I'm not a fan of "teaching" this way.

Bingo is for building vocabulary. Instead making the cards, have the students fill in the blank cards. They can draw or writing. Writing helps with reading while drawing pictures can help students recognize sounds and build vocabulary. It also works really well to let students take turns calling the words (as apposed to the teacher.) This sandwiches speaking, matching, listening and memory into one reinforcement activity. You can use these with the Super Bingo I posted here and here or you own bingo vocabulary.
This is a pretty straight forward lesson about chocolate with a making activity that's very affordable. I find that hands one really reinforces language, but you don't have to do the activity in order to use this lesson. Here is a random link to supplies on Gmarket (South Korea). If the link doesn't look go to All Categories, Food, Processed Foods, DYI, DYI choclolate and you'll find everything you need cheap. The review at the end are pictures covered by rectangles. This is what I like to call stacked review. In order to see the picture, they take turns telling which box to click: rectangle a, rectangle b (and so on) reviewing alphabet and shape. I usually let the students chose between "click" or "guess". If they guess, they can't choose a rectangle. Some of this might seem too simple, but most classes have students of varying ability. Sometimes, that difference can be very extreme, so I always try vary the difficulty throughout the lesson so that everyone can participate. Plus, easy questions have an added bonus of building confidence in more advanced students. |
