Stocking Stuffers - December 19, 2018

Holiday Lesson Set - Lesson 07e

Time: 30+| Level: JHS~Adult| Mode: Small Group Activity

What will Santa put in your stocking this year?

Students receive a set of cards with items they were given in their Christmas stockings.

The other students in the group ask Yes / No Questions to identify what the items are.

When all of the items have been identified, students then trade their less wanted items for more desirable ones.

Although this lesson is very fun, there are a lot of fundamental elements of the English language being used including subject / verb agreement, singular vs. plural and count vs. non-countable nouns, articles, direct objects and possessive pronouns.

What Makes Our Lessons Different?

Teachers Save Time

Reduce lesson planning and gain freedom in the classroom. With all students busy, the teacher can casually roam around the classroom and offer assistance wherever needed.

Students Learn by Doing

Minutes after beginning each lesson, classes often become noisy. At times, very noisy. Why? Students, in pairs or small groups, actively engage in completing the lesson task. They use English to learn English.

Listening, Speaking, Reading & Writing

Oral communication is important. Listening and speaking have priority in our lessons; students need to carefully listen to each other. Reading is also important for the success of the lessons. The amount of writing required varies.

Fun for Teachers & Students

We believe students learn better when having fun. Our lessons range from silly to serious but each has a solid task-specific educational goal including grammar usage, vocabulary building and fluency improvement to name a few.

Hi Kurt,
After reading the other testimonials, I really agree with them! I have taught ESL for 20+ years and I am always looking for exciting materials for my adult students. Your worksheets have hit the jackpot! They have captured the attention of my adult students. Observing them last night with the adjective synonyms, they were staying past the dismissal time and working to explore and complete the worksheet. Thank you, Thank you.
