Reward Chart + Oscars to laminate for class motivation and rewards! Awesome tool for English/Drama

(0)
For any English activity or drama activity, for example after debates, presentations, group work, and poster activities I award my learners with an Oscar. I use three categories each month and one group Oscar prize, one individual prize and another individual prize(for progress). So every student has a chance to win an award each month. The students get so excited at the Oscar concept, as it is something they know and can relate to. Instructions Photocopy the Oscars and laminate them, you can use the chart across the whole year if you just edit the dates on the document, the one here starts from Sept to Dec, simply enlarge the chart or decrease the Oscars so they fit in the chart. At the end of the month the learners of the categories will get a prize. A movie, sweets or whatever your school policy is usually motivates the students. Hang it on your classroom wall, it will get the students excited! Something visual that is always there is a great motivating tool.

Students act as teachers and identify the mistakes throughout the health blog, this reinforces their ability to recognize errors and correct in pairs. At the end they can make a video in groups based on the text. A great interactive activity!

Face yoga lesson plan for English ESL or Key stage 3 and 4.

This lesson includes a discussion at the beginning, it followed by a short reading with some questions to check the text is understood. There is a vocabulary brainstorm activity; then based on the reading students can construct a persuasive leaflet about Face yoga in their community. This is good to allow learners to work in groups, to collaborate and share ideas. It helps learners gain knowledge about an obscure topic and also to develop their health and well - being. This would be good for learners to apply who have previously studied persuasive writing techniques. All in all Speaking, reading and writing are the skills that will be enhanced in this lesson. It is designed for IGCSE second language core or extended, as well as Key stage 2, it may also be used in PSHE or Health and Social care.
