6th Grade : Let's make `Teacher Quizzes`!
6th grade students had their second lesson this year studying We Can!1 Unit 5 `She can run fast. He can jump high.` In this class they made `Who is he/she?` quizzes about their teachers in order to prepare to make similar quizzes about their friends in a later class.
At the start of the class some of the students gave a demonstration for the greeting game. They made sure to ask many `Can you ~?` questions.
"Can you play the recorder?"
"No, I can't."
After watching the demonstration it was time for everyone else to try.
Good eye contact!
Nice gestures!
Next, we listened to the chant from We Can!1 Unit 5. Everyone tried their best to do gestures along with the chant.
The students have been able to learn the chant very easily because they did a similar chant last year.
After that, we did a listening activities. We did `Let's Watch and Think 2` from We Can!1 Unit 5.
First the students listened to a boy describing what two of his friends can do. They tried to catch some of the words and take notes. They didn't have to understand everything.
Next, they watched a video of those two friends talking and describing directly what they can and can't do.
"If they can do it, draw a circle. If they can't, write a triangle."
Everyone checked their answers from the first part by completing the second part.
We actually did this same activity last year. The students found it really difficult at that time. This year, it was still a little difficult but everyone found it much easier than before.
Next, the homeroom teachers introduced someone to the students through a quiz.
"He can sing. He can dance. He can act. He is cool. Who is he?"
"Hint, please."
"He can dance like this!"
"Oh! Hoshino Gen!"
The students enjoyed listening to the quizzes.
Next, we reviewed the adjectives that the students learned in the previous class.
We also introduced some pictures of the teachers at the school. The students had to make quizzes using those teachers.
After some thinking time the students got into groups and gave their quizzes to each other.
"He can play soccer."
"He is cool."
"Who is he?"
After doing quizzes in groups the teachers picked some of the students with interesting quizzes to give their quizzes to the whole class.
"She is funny. She can play the piano."
"I know! I know!"
Good job 6th grade students! Let's make more quizzes in the next class!
