Lesson 6 Class 1

Vocabulary Actions (daily activities)
Numbers 1~60 (for time)
Dialogue What time do you get up?

Grey = future lessons, bold = current lesson, normal = previous lessons

Goals

  • Review Lesson 5
  • Review numbers 1 - 60
  • Get used to time
  • Get used to new actions

Activities

To review lesson 5:

  • Let's Chant (Hi, friends! 2 Lesson 5, p.21)
    Version 2 = "I want to see/eat ~."
    Version 3 = "You can see/eat ~."
  • Snap
    Students should still have the cards from when they used them in lesson 5. In groups, (using one set of cards) the leader says "Let's go to ~." and students snap on that country. Leader changes each turn.
    Option: the winner has to say "I want to see/eat ~."
    Option 2: The leader says "I want to see/eat ~." and students snap on the correct country.

To review numbers:

  • Count around the circle
    Students count in a circle. Either in order around the circle or randomly by pointing to the next person.
  • How many fingers janken
    In pairs, students put out 1 to 5 fingers, count the total and say the number out loud. First to speak wins. Super fun!
  • Number fingers
    Walking and talking, student test each other using fingers to confirm the number. Fast, active, peer-to-peer learning.

For getting used to time:

  • Let's Listen 1 (Hi, friends! 2 Lesson 6, p.22)
    Students listen and fill in the time in their textbooks.

Get used to new actions:

  • Let's Play 2 (Hi, friends! 2 Lesson 6, p.22)
    In the ohajkiki game, students place up to 5 ohajiki (flat glass beads, or any other counter) on 5 different action pictures. Teacher calls out actions, students remove those ohajiki, first to remove all ohajiki wins. Bingo!
    Option: Allow students to call out the actions. TIP: Set a rule - you can/can't call out an action you have an ohajiki on. Both versions are fun.
  • Gesture game
    One student does a gesture, others guess which action she is gesturing. eg. Leisurely raise arms up in air = get up.
  • Keyword game
    Students in pairs repeat vocabulary until teacher says the keyword when they snatch the eraser sitting between them.

  • Let's Chant (Hi, friends! 2 Lesson 3, p.12)
  • Collecting "Me too's."
    Students walk around, find a partner and say "I can play the piano." If the other students can do it as well, they say "Me too.", hi five and they both get a point. If they can't, they say something they can do and say farewell.

To review actions:

To review numbers for time:

  • As recommended in Class 1 - various number review activities
  • Human clock - "What time is it?"
    Students walk around class, find talking partner. Janken. Winner uses arms as clock hands to show the time and asks "What time is it?" Partner answers. Give praise if correct.
    TIP: To make this not so confusing for students, demonstrate how to do it in a way that makes it easy to read the human clock. Start with both hands up (as in 12 o'clock). First rotate the hour hand clockwise to the hour. Next move the minute hand, again clockwise, to the minutes. Keep minute hand to either 15, 30, 45 or o'clock.

For questions about what time one does something:

  • Let's chant (Hi, friends! 2 Lesson 6, p.24)
  • Activity 1(Hi, friends! 2 Lesson 6, p.23)
    Students guess what time the teachers get up, etc, then ask the teacher as a class. Option: divide each row into two, so they can ask both the ALT and the HRT.
  • Activity 2 (PLUS: Collecting signatures)
    Students fill in the table. Then they walk around the class asking others "What time do you ~?" Each student should ask each other the same question before moving on to the next question. If they find they do something at the same time, they collect a signature from that person. Signatures go anywhere on p.25 (in ocean space east of the American continent).
