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.

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.

Very fun and engaging deforestation debate (they need some knowledge beforehand, otherwise your help during the debate). All students say it is the best geography lesson they had (including if I do this in other schools as a one off). All students are actively participating in every second of the lesson. I really enjoy this lesson but it is a lot of energy and they need to respond to you. For a class that are noisy/ active I used a bell per round (5), but other classes it is not needed. Hot air balloon debate. There is a bit of preparing time for all students at the start so they are ready. Depending on their ability, during the “note taking” sections (between some rounds), you can give questions to volunteers/ help them out ready for the debate in advance. Otherwise, my students were just practicing their confidence and speech/ public speaking skills. E.g. I had one stand up high and speak loudly, and used the uniform as “one” to vote for him. For example, they may ask for some advice. The lower abilities would take their books to read or use for ideas during this time. You may want to provide a finished handout for the volunteers as they are note taking (unless they are high enough ability to multitask it). I usually photocopy another students’ finished notes to give them because it is related to the actual debate they did, rather than what you’ll guess they will say. After the debate, they have a good view on all stakeholders and can create their own speech about who they support. Sentence starters/ examples, prompts provided. Challenge included. Some students to share their speech afterwards. This builds great confidence in their speaking, reading, and class support. It is fast pace, so behaviour needs to be quickly acted upon. Responsibility shared, more freedom and trust in the classroom. It is something different and worth trying if you haven’t. It will indicate whether you can trust/ give freedom in lessons. This is a shorter version than my original to fit within 50mins-1hr class. It can easily be adjusted.
