M
E


2. Anger Gauge / Happiness Gauge

<Whisper Game>
- First, make groups of 5-6 and make them line up.
- Teacher gives a word to the first student.
- The student hears the word, and passes on the word that pops into his/her mind after hearing the word.
- The turn continues.
- After the word is passed on up to the last student, they speak out the word.
- Ss share their answers together. All the answers from each group will vary.

* Difference between the actual whisper game and this activity:
- In the original whisper game, students are asked to pass on the exact word or sentence they hear. However, in this game, it's more like guessing game in that students don't know what the exact word is. They have to come up with a new word or sentence.


* Variation: This activity can be used for grammar lessons as well.
-For example
1) The teacher gives the word 'air-conditioner'
2) Ss have to make a sentence like : 'I use this to cool myself'
3) The next S hears the sentence, guesses what is it and says : 'It is especially useful in the hot summer', and so on.
4) Last student has to guess what the word is.

Using a relative pronoun 'who' for describing ideal types

I've wanted to know how to combine grammar teaching with communicative approach. I think that grammar should be embedded in meaningful, authentic and communicative contexts. I tried to come up with the effective ways to contextualize the targeted form 'who' in natural, authentic classroom activity. I devised grammar class about use of a relative pronoun 'who' for describing students' ideal men or women.

- I had a certain class for grammar instruction teaching 'who'.
- This class is devised right after the class to help students internalize this targeted form better through some activities.

First activity
-using the lyric of Korean song 'I need a girl' by Tae Yang
(lyrics or Music video might not be appropriate for teaching materials. We can use  older song '희망사항' instead.)
Lyrics of those two Korean songs are all about describing their ideal women.)

ex) I need a girl 뭘 해도 이쁜
   : I need a girl who looks pretty no matter what she does.
    치마보다 청바지가 잘 어울리는 그런 여자
   : I need a girl who looks better in jeans than a skirt.

Second activity (talking about ideal men or women)

-3-steps speaking

:First step : with your partner (tell him/her your own sentences starting with I like someone who.....)
:Second step : with one of group members (tell him/her your own sentences starting with I like someone who..... and what you heard from your partner starting with he/she<your partner likes someone who.....)
:Third step : with the other of group members (tell him/her about his/her sentences you heard from other member starting with you like someone who.....)

Your ideal man or woman

 

 

Describe your ideal man or woman using “who”

 

I like someone who 

 

I like someone who

 

Name	Ideal man/ woman
Your partner	◇Someone who ◇Someone who
group member 1	◇Someone who ◇Someone who
group member 2	◇Someone who ◇Someone who

 

I like someone who

 

She/He likes someone who

 

You like someone who 

Word clues

This activity is a pair work and for reviewing the words.
The students have different sets of clues with their partners.

1. Each student find and write down the proper clues for their words.
   They can add their own clues to the words.

2. Next, explain their words to the partner with their clues.
   For example, students can say "It means feeling to eat some food" for the word 'hungry'.

3. While the partner is explaining, the other has to write down the key hints and guess the word.

4. After both finish explaining their words, check out the results.

▶ Sample worksheet

Quizizz + Crossword Exchange

1. Students review the words individually with Quizizz(Homework mode)
 
    * Turn off the leaderboard/question timer function so that students won't get distracted.

2. After filling out the worksheet using Quizizz, students now team up. 4 students for one group. Hand out the worksheet for crossword activity.

3. As a group, they should come up with their own clues for the words they are given. After that, two members from each group will move to other groups to tell them thei r groups' clues and get the other groups' clues.

4. After they get the clues from other groups, they will come back to their original group and everyone in the group will complete their crossword together.

Brain-squeezing 3,6,9

3,6,9 for Vocabulary for the whole class or in a group or in pairs

3,6,9 game for practice with part of speech

There are 3 steps to master the game.

First, let’s try the original version. Start numbering clockwise. If you get mutiples of 3, you should be quiet. If you get multiples of 10, you should say BBosshong.

Second, instead of being silent with multiples of 3, say a noun word.

Lastly, instead of saying BBoshong, if you have 10, change the part of speech, saying “go(Verb)”. From then, person with multiples of 3 say a verb instead of noun words.

The person who misses the chance of speaking out starts the game again.

Ex.One-two-book-four-five-teacher-seven-eight-computer-go(Verb)-eleven-kind-thirteen-fourteen-bored-sixteen-seventeen-phone-nineteen-clean(Adjective)-good

Other versions

-Jobs to school supplies to places. . .

Ex. One-two-teacher-four-five-cook-seven-eight-policeofficer-schoolsupplies-eleven-pencil-thirteen-fourteen-mechanical pencil

-Wrap up; *We can narrow down the words to a certain lesson for wrapping up the lesson (reading)

Team4	Team3	Team2	Team1
		10	9
8	7(if he missed, starts here)	6	5
4	3	2	1

                         -1

How to play

1)    Start the game with the first person in each column(team) and take turns speaking as the representative of your group

2)    The person who missed the chance of speaking out starts the game with No.1

3)    The number of missed chances is reflected on their whole score.

Activity: Word/Sentence Memory Game

Word Memory Game 😊
1. Show 5(or more) words in order in a short time, about 5 seconds.
2. At this time, students CANNOT write the words on the answer sheet.
3. After 5 seconds, teacher says write! (On the screen, no words remain) Students recall the words and write down the words or words' meaning in order on the answer sheet.
4. Switch the answer sheet with other groups and check the answers.
* It's really easy and simple activity, it will take 1-2 minutes for teacher to type in the words.
* For lower level students, it will be better to give English words and let them write Korean meaning. For higher level students, you can provide Korean and make them write in English. For mixed level, one set of Korean and another set of English will be okay.

Speakers Corner & Table Talk

Speaker’s Corner   
This is a fluency activity that is suitable for relatively high-level students in schools or classes that support the use of technology and/or shared online spaces. Introduce the concept of Speaker’s Corner by showing videos from the ‘You Are Here’ YouTube Channel   https://www.youtube.com/user/youareherecafe/

Give students a list of topics they can discuss. (See Below)

Divide them into groups of two or three and give them some time to prepare what they are going to say.   If enough recording devices are available, pair teams up with each other so that they can take turns recording each other.  Videos can then be uploaded to a private communal space (like a class Band).  Students are encouraged (or required) to watch and comment on their classmates videos.   For lower level students, the speaking task can be simplified and additional language prompts can be provided

Table Talk Table Talk Discussions  (based on Toastmasters - about - local clubs)
Students either randomly choose a table talk topic or can choose one themselves. They have 2 minutes to prepare their answer. They then have one minute to answer the question with a mini-speech. This can be done whole group or in small groups, recorded and shared or not.

Reading and grammar exercise by Running Dictation

Activity	Details
Running dictation	Teacher chooses a reading material (a paragraph-long) which contains some relative pronouns. Teacher divides it into 3 or 4 part, and shuffles them in wrong order.
