Lesson 7: School life

As this is a subject that has alot of content to cover, the class went on for longer than usual (2 hours instead of the usual 1 and a half hours).

I started the class by testing their vocabulary memory. Before them were many cut-up pictures, unlabeled:
Pictures for vocabulary revision

Each of the students had a copy of this worksheet, with a different version of words written on the top of the empty boxes. They had to stick the matching picture in their boxes.
[I wrote the following words in the boxes: depressed- slippers- bracelet- ginger- cuisine-wealth- anxious- cheerful- boil- lettuce- peaches- cultures- mowing the lawn- vacuuming the floor- cook- cooker- carrots- snacks- traveling- camping- married- butter- rowing- knitting- sisters- necklace- pour- religion] All the words were from their previous classes' vocabulary hand-outs.

Once the revision was done, we started with our class on school.

I showed them this cute video on school from Sesame Street:


We discussed school-related vocabulary:
Vocabulary handout- School life

And played some games- each student had a turn at playing Hangman with words from the vocabulary hand-out, and then they un-scrambled words

The Listening Exercises were based on one audio from Randall's ESL Listening Lab- A Day at School, and three videos from Sesame Street:

Professor Grover


The Count's first day of school



Lauren goes to school



Sesame Street is an excellent resource for education!
