INTRODUCTION FOR THE TEACHER Welcome to LET’S GET STARTED! All of the thematic units in the series follow the same basic format which includes speaking, listening, reading and writing activities for individual learners, small groups, or large groups. The activities provide the repetition necessary for second language acquisition in a relaxed enjoyable learning environment. They also function as review or remediation activities. Once you become familiar with the procedures, the units practically teach themselves.

PROCEDURES FOR PRESENTING EACH UNIT Before laminating any activity cards, put the unit number on the back so that if you ever want to combine units, you can easily resort them for storage with their correct unit. Laminate and cut out the Target Vocabulary (removing the labels) and the word Flashcards. (I use an envelope that has been stapled down the center while open. This creates two pouches for the corresponding word and picture cards. These envelopes can be labeled and stored in a shoebox as more units are added.) Laminate and cut out the Categorizing Sorting Activities page and store in another envelope. The size of these cards works well for a teacher dealing with a small group seated around a table. If you have a larger group, these cards may need to be enlarged before laminating for use with a pocket chart.

Assessing Prior Knowledge Place all of the Target Vocabulary picture cards (without labels) on the table (or enlarged ones in a pocket chart.) Pass out the word Flashcards. See if students can match any of the word cards to the corresponding pictures. If the students are totally unfamiliar with the words, hand out the Target Vocabulary labeled picture pages. They can match their words by referring to their labeled pages.

Spelling and Pronunciation To reinforce the symbol to word connection, the Target Vocabulary cards can be cut out, laminated and used for these activities instead of the flashcards containing only words. Alphabetize the Flashcards Say each word as students put the cards in alphabetical order. Read the completed list together. Sort the Words According to the Number of Letters To make this more interesting, students can vote ahead of time which column they think will have the most words under it upon completion. On the table (for small groups) or enlarged in a hanging pocket chart, put sorting labels at the head of columns. (Words with 3 letters/ Words with 4 letters/ Words with 5 letters etc.) Give students individual flashcards and have them place the word in the appropriate column. For example, the student or teacher will say: “Apple has 5 letters.” Sort the Words According to the Number of Vowels Use the same procedure as in the previous exercise. Initially, have a visible listing of vowels and consonants for students to refer to if they are unfamiliar with vowels and consonants. This is particularly helpful for students whose language does not use the English alphabet. Sort the Words According to the Number of Consonants Use the same procedure as in the preceding exercise. Hangman (or Dinosaur) At first students have their labeled vocabulary lists during play. Later they play without their lists. Remember some of the students and their families may have endured brutal circumstances in their journey to their new home and Hangman may be too gruesome for them or may trigger unpleasant or even traumatic memories. Hangman can be adapted to Dinosaur. See the diagram to the right. By adding the head, eye, mouth, body, tail, arms and legs, students get nine chances to guess the letters and word.

Conversational Prompts Detailed conversational prompts are included in each unit. They provide teacher-directed oral activities that allow students to use the words in context.

Student Worksheets: Use the worksheets as class activities or homework.

Categorizing In addition to the generic (useful for ALL units) categorizing activities which concern the spelling of the words, many units

Page 5: Let's Get Started Book 9 Sample Unit

also have categorizing activities related to the meaning of the words in the unit. These categorizing activities are included in their respective units. Target Vocabulary When using the Target Vocabulary sheets make sure to clearly pronounce each word and give the students time to repeat the words. Word /Picture Recognition Activity Give each student a copy of the word flashcard page or the target Vocabulary Pages with the labels removed. Give the directions orally for each of the words in random order. For example, “Underline the (word) book.” “Draw an oval around the (word) chalk.” “Draw a rectangle around the (word) desk.” “Draw a triangle above the (word) eraser.” “Draw a square below the (word) map.” “Write an x before the (word) locker.” “Write an x after the (word) paper.” If students are completely unfamiliar with the directions, write a sample word or draw a sample picture on the board and demonstrate what the students are being asked to do on the sample word/picture. Students can correct their own papers as the correct answers are put on the board or on a transparency of the page. Refer to the last page of the appendix for a list of directions. Fill in Missing Letters Fill in Missing Letters directs students’ attention to all of the letters of the words. Students are asked to fill in missing letters. In the first activity the students fill in the vowels. In the second, they fill in the consonants. In the third and fourth, they fill in alternating missing letters. Word Find - Upper Case Letters This word find puzzle uses capital letters with a word bank (in capitals as well) at the bottom.

Word Find - Lower Case Letters Now the students focus on lower case letters in the words. Fill In The Lower Case Letters Lower case ascending and descending letters can be difficult, especially for students coming from a non-alphabetic language. This exercise provides valuable practice in noticing and writing ascending and descending letters. If you provide a word bank for assistance, provide one in capital letters so as not to make it too easy. If this is new for the students, you may want to demonstrate ascending and descending letters and as a class determine which letters de-scend, (g,j,p,q,y) ascend completely, (b,d,f,h,k,l) or ascend partially (i,j,t). Write A Sentence Using The Word This exercise allows the class to work together to create sentences using each word. This should be done together with you putting the student-created sentences on the board for the students to copy onto their papers. If desired, sentences can be made by you using the sentences given on the GAME CARDS used for the DAY AT SCHOOL game. This will make it easier to play the matching game with the definition cards, which have the same definitions as the Game Cards. Spelling This exercise contains four spellings for each word. The students will circle the correct one. Scrambled Words In this exercise the letters of the words are scrambled with a double puzzle which is usually a question pertaining to the vocabulary words. Match the Pictures to the Words Students match the pictures to the words. Separate The Words All of the words run together with no spacing in both upper and lower case. Students are asked to draw vertical lines between the words. To make this more interesting, you can have all of the students begin at the same time and record the time it takes them to complete each line. You can call out: “20 seconds….. 30 seconds…..” and students can record their times at the end of line. Word Find Shape This page contains a shaped upper case word find puzzle with a scrambled lower case word bank.

Page 6: Let's Get Started Book 9 Sample Unit

What Is It? This is a matching activity using the descriptions given in the Game Cards and Matching Game. This can be an assessment or an assigned activity. If it is used as an assessment, it must be after students have played DAY AT SCHOOL with the Game Cards and/or the Matching Card Game so that they are familiar with the written definitions of the vocabulary words. Illustrated Crossword Match the pictures to the words and then fill in the crossword. Crossword The crossword puzzle can be an activity or an assessment. If it is used as an assessment, it is important for you to go over the clues orally on several occasions before expecting the students to complete it as an assessment. Each student can be given a whiteboard, or cut up flashcards. You can read each clue and ask all students to either write the word on their white boards, or hold up the correct flashcard. The same clues/definitions are used on the cards for the DAY AT SCHOOL game mentioned below as well as the Matching Card Game, so the students will be familiar with the clues if the games have been used. Cloze Sentences The students read the exercise and use the words from the word bank to fill in the missing words. Written Assessment Each unit has a direct recall test at the end, i.e., students write the words under the pictures.

GAMES Bingo Each unit contains a Bingo game. An extra copy of the flashcard page can be laminated and kept in an envelope with the Bingo pages. There are five different Bingo pages. Copy and laminate enough pages so that all students (or teams) can have one page. Laminate sheets of colored paper before cutting them up in half inch squares for markers. Students are told (or shown) the word. They then place markers (or buttons) on the corresponding picture. When a student gets a Bingo, he or she must then name all of the items that are in the line. This is an excellent way to help students improve their recall of the new items. DAY AT SCHOOL The unit also contains a set of GAME CARDS that can be used with the DAY AT SCHOOL game. The Day At School game board is found in the index. This allows the students an opportunity in a relaxed setting to be reminded of the definitions and use the words in appropriate sentences. Students read a game card containing the definition and a picture of a vocabulary word. They must read the sentence definition on the card and supply the word (and spelling if desired) in order to move along a game board similar to Chutes and Ladders or Candy Land. The game contains some pitfalls along the path to insure that the smartest student in the class doesn’t automatically win every time. That outcome would discourage struggling students from even trying to win. Vocabulary Crazy 8 The units contain a Matching Card Game that can be played like Crazy 8 where students collect sets that include the picture, the word, and the definition. If the sentences in the “Write a Sentence Using the Word” page were generated from these cards (as opposed to being original sentences from the students), students may initially refer to that page of sentences while they play. When played like Old Maid, only the word and picture cards are used, along with the frown-ing face as the Old Maid.

A typical unit would look something like this: Assessing Prior Knowledge Presentation/Sorting Activities Old Maid Game Use the Target Vocabulary pages as a reference if necessary. Bingo

Page 7: Let's Get Started Book 9 Sample Unit

Then follow with Fill in the Letters, Word Find Upper Case, Lower Case Fill In and Lower Case Word Find. The students can then work in small groups on Conversation and/or Categorizing Activities. Next can come a class activity writing original student-generated or teacher-directed sentences. Play the Day at School Game and the Crazy 8 Game. Then follow with Spelling, Scrambled Words, Match the Picture to the Word, Separate The Words, Shape Word Find, and Cloze Sentences. The Crosswords and Match the Word to the Definition can be assigned or used as assessments. As a final assessment use the Written Assessment Test at the end of each unit. Follow up with the games as a review to aid retention. Once a unit has been covered, students can play Bingo, Day at School, or the Matching Card game during free time.

Let’s Use All The Vocabulary - Review In this section the students get a chance to use all the vocabulary they learned in the previous five units in brand new exercises. (R= reading, W = writing, L = listening, S = speaking) 1. Information Gap Activities - What is it? and Spell It R W L S In information gap activities students exchange information orally with a partner in order to complete their handout sheet, without looking at the their partner’s sheet. For example, Student B would ask Student A, “What is in box A?” Student A would answer, “A comb.” Student B would write COMB in box A on their sheet. Student A now gets a chance to ask Student B about missing information. 2. Short Conversation R W L S

3. Find Someone Who… WSL

4. Story Puzzle R S L

5. Runner and Writer R W L S

6. Correct the Sentences R W

7. Listen and Number L

8. Walking Dictation - He/She/They like... R W L S

9. Names to Pronouns R W

10. Following Instructions: Stand Up, Sit Down, Raise Your Hand, Wave If You… L

The Day at School game can be played with the cards from ALL of the units shuffled together. Also the Old Maid cards can be combined as well. (This is where the numbering on the back of the cards to designate the unit becomes helpful when sorting them for storage.)

Old Maid and Crazy Eights These cards can be used to play games like Old Maid or Crazy 8. Old Maid: (The game works best with a group of 2-3 players. Each group will need their own set of cards.) Use ONLY the picture and word cards. 1. All of the cards are dealt to the players. 2. Pairs of cards (picture and corresponding word) are collected and laid down. 3. Players take turns drawing a card from the player to their right. 4. The game is over when all of the pairs have been laid down. 5. The person who finishes with the most pairs is the winner. 6. The person stuck with the frowning face is the loser. Crazy 8: (The frowning face is not used for this game. The game works best with a group of 2-3 players. Each group will need their own set of cards.) 1. Each person gets 5 cards. 2. The remainder of the cards are placed face down, with one card facing up for a “discard” pile. 3. Players can lay down pairs (picture and corresponding word) on their turns. When a pair is laid down, replacement cards are drawn from the pile. 4. A turn consists of either taking a card from the face down pile, or taking the top card from the discard pile AND choosing one card to discard. 5. When the face-down pile has been used up, the discard pile is turned over and play continues until all of the sets have been identified and laid down. 6. The person with the most sets at the end wins the game. NOTE: For the advanced version of Crazy 8, you may also use the cards that have written descriptions of the vocabulary word. In that case, players collect all three cards that belong together - the picture, the word, and the written description.
