I believe that students learn so much faster when they compete, play and generally have fun. I also believe that students remember vocabulary and grammar much better when they see it in a context or a picture. These videos are perfect to conduct a picture quiz and learn new words and structures at the same time. How? It's very simple.
A SUGGESTED LESSON PLAN
1. You can divide your students into two competing teams or...
*You can also play YOUR STUDENTS VS YOU. I tried this a few times and it was lots of fun. When students guess correctly they get 2 points if they don't you get 3 points
(sounds a bit unfair but my students usually won anyway:)
2. Students have to use only English while consulting in groups
If they don't comply they lose a point.

3. Play the video and pause it where necessary so students could have enough time
to read both options and come up with an answer
(but not too much time, remember this is supposed to be a fast paced game)

5. The second part of the video is a revision of the whole material.
Students can get more points for completing a sentence correctly.

OdpowiedzUsuńYou're welcome. I'm glad you liked it.
UsuńVery good! Even though there are some words that young students don't know like slip or sort so we need to pre-teach some. Thank you so much!
OdpowiedzUsuńYou're absolutely right, pre-teaching is a good idea if you teach kids!!!
