Fun with flags quiz

Fun with flags quiz

(0)
Updated version: Only English. Used with students for locational knowledge. Timer already set so you don’t need to press anything and check the students/ control behaviour. You can adjust timer settings. 40minutes - 1hr class: alter to suit your needs/ wants to adjust timing. This has PPT, an answer sheet for you, 1 page quiz worksheet (or they can write numbers and answers, depending on the ability of students or your resources), a video (which is already embedded in the PPT but you have this as an in case). Powerpoint is already timed, so you only need to get the class into groups, give them a worksheet and the slides will go through. I monitor the classroom and if they already answered, then I would forward it to next slide to provide more discussion time at end. Guess the country (flags made with their food) Name the colours of the flag Real or Fake flag Short video clip about flags: memory test At the end, you can mark answers by going through with students and having them swap their sheets with another group. You can even expand on each section/ answer by asking about the image which brings into cultural food and famous things of each country, or even some facts that students may know. You can decide how they get full marks. For example, correct spelling only etc. Literacy is important in UK schools and you gain points for correct spelling in exams so you might want to factor your lessons. I used this for English class where they had to translate it from their own language to English so I didn’t mark for spelling but gave them points for trying to spell (usually they would have the word in their langauge). Their geography level are good so I usually did forward the slides. I used this as a reward day which is fun, engaging and has competition between teams. You can give rewards to the winning team if you like, usually candy or in UK it would be commendations.

Compass directions

Compass directions

These are designed for 1hour. 3 slightly different versions depending on your resources/ class behaviour/ student abilities. You can mix them up. There are some Pokemon themed sections which you can remove/ alter. All materials and helpsheets included. Lesson plans are not included due to confidential data. Gapfill also included for students to try answers. In seats, short task together, short independent task building towards main independent task. Pair work. Similar to a treasure hunt but using words, to decode a secret word. Main activity is fun: linking into science, survival in real life using minimal items such as a leaf or a puddle etc. Depending on which resources you want to use and environment, this can be adapted. In this scenario, it’s in the classroom so it uses a bowl. There are other ways of making a compass but this is the minimal as you want magnetic north to address the misconceptions that North is always in front of you like the maps say. If you happen to not have materials/ or it’s being used by the science department/ don’t have any at home or the budget… you can skip the making compass section and show with your compass/ your phone/ provide compasses (depending on resources). The main activity involves a team game where they have to the teacher from A to B using the classroom. For behaviour control, they can estimate the number of steps (assuming they have also not learnt scale/ distance yet), or if you have a behaved class you can allow one student per team to leave their seat to count steps (limits to about 6 students out their seats at a time for classroom management). The purpose of the lesson is compass directions so the other factors are not important in this class. Future classes will have these skills combined. 2 and 3 looks more into real-life survival skills and involves team activities. There are also extras included depending on the class speed/ lesson time. If you have a break in classes, you can use it to prepare materials/ set up teams to save time. My students know how to move the tables, who’s in their teams, who is the team leader for collecting items (classroom management), and complete it within 30 seconds with materials. You must model it well if it is your first time with such activities.
Deciduous Forests (Full lesson)

Deciduous Forests (Full lesson)

(0)
A full 1 hour lesson. Lesson plan refers to 50 minutes but it is easily 1 hour or more depending on how much time you want to provide. I included this because you can understand each part. All sensitive information is removed. I have also included a section for a Plan B, in case the class does not go to plan. A brief starter about each season to assess their prior knowledge and the importance of knowing this information. E.g. Would you wear a warm coat in the summer? A merry-go-round activity with stations. This saves lots on resources as you only need 6 sheets. Depending on the level of your class, you can remove more information, and remove the bold font as hints. Depending on your student’s knowledge, you may want to explain some things first or change some information. For example, food chains/ webs.

English Real Life Scenario Book

(0)
Learning English in real life scenarios. Adapted for in person teaching, online teaching, and telephone teaching. All worksheets, activities and powerpoints for each section are included and editable if needed. This book has been widely used for learning languages in schools. Translated in Korean (which you can remove or adjust to another language) For example, teaching Italian with English translations. The translations are for students to be able to self-study and understand, with or without the help of their parents or teachers. It allows them independence if you decide that yo want them to do the work beforehand, or with you, or as homework. The page numbers make it easily referenced especially when you are teaching remotely. I usually changed 10. into competitive learning games as they were more interested.
