Middle School Grade 3 Lesson Planshttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif

Here I am posting all of my Grade 3 materials for my middle school classes. They are based on the curriculum for the Middle School English 3 books by Johanna L. Haas.

Some of the powerpoints were made by me from scratch, others are simply modified PPT's I've found across the web and adjusted to fit my classes. I have done my best to name the ones I modified though, if I left anything out and you see something familiar though, if you let me know I will mention it.

Chapter 2 - My School Bus

At my school, chapters are split over two weeks, so I always have two powerpoints for each chapter. These ones were constructed with a little help from an extremely useful website called waygook.org. If you're teaching in Korea, you probably know that site already, if you don't you should definitely check it out though. It's saved my hide several times in the past year and there are some people with some great ideas contributing to the site. Do watch out for the red herrings though...there are a few there too...:/

Lesson 2a

Lesson 2b

Chapter 1 - All About Me

This is the first lesson I did with my first graders after the first week of introducing rules and doing some ice breakers. It went down pretty well and although the students were a bit wary of all the presenting they had to do in class, it was actually pretty good preparation for them, as they now present in my classes on a regular basis.

Grade 1- Lesson 1b - Introductions

Middle School Grade 1 Lesson Plans

Here I am posting all of my Grade 1 materials for my middle school classes. They are based on the curriculum for the Middle School English 1 books by Johanna L. Haas.

Some lessons are obviously better than others, but I hope either way that the PPTs and the handouts will be helpful to you, even if you only look at them to give you some ideas of what you can do with your own students.

As I am re-signing at my school for next year, I will be updating my lessons in the future as I re-use them. As happens in teaching, some of these lessons were a complete success and others flunked terribly, which is why I will do my best to reflect on my lessons as best I can to give you some hints on what does and doesn't work. Please do bear in mind that all classes are different though and a lesson that didn't work for me, might well work for you with a little modification! A lot is up to how the teacher presents the topics, so please keep that at the back of your minds when reading what I have to say.

Lesson Plan Postings

So...I've decided that as a result of all my hard hard work of the last year I should share some of the fruits of my labour with anyone else who happens to be interested! And what better way to do so than on my blog. I know I haven't updated for a while and I'm very sorry about that but I hope the following posts will make up for that somewhat...hope these prove useful to some of you out there!
