Write the following on strips of paper and have your students act them out for their groups who then have to guess what they're doing:
|
- a turkey being killed for Christmas dinner
- a christmas tree being cut down
- a snowman melting
- Santa climbing down the chimney
- reindeer pulling santa’s sleigh
- singing Christmas carols in the cold
You'll have lots of fun and it's not as hard as it looks!

Best with YLs, but works with any age at any level!
Give all the SS six bits of scrap paper.
Each SS writes three things they want to get for |
xmas and three things they don’t really want for xmas but think they might be given anyway (e.g. a scarf / socks etc).
Give all the SS six bits of scrap paper.
Each SS writes three things they want to get for xmas and three things they don’t really want for xmas but think they might be given anyway (e.g. a scarf / socks etc)
All the presents get “wrapped up” (or fold / scrunch up the bits of paper) and put into “Santa’s Sack” (a plastic bag or whatever you have handy).
You then jumble up all the presents and dish them out to the SS – two at a time – until all the SS have six.
SS then have to swap and barter the presents with each other until they get pretty much what they want for xmas.
Feedback – find out what the SS got at the end!
Extension – SS write a “thank you letter” to Santa…?
Hope it helps,

RHETT & LINK'S NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION SONG |
|
|
Here's a handout to accompany Rhett & Link's New Year's Resolution song on youtube.
Rhett & Link
It's good for speaking about future intentions and the difference between will and going to, as well as using the present continuous for the future.
(You can download from Youtube using the downloadyoutubevideos.com website
Enjoy!

Ask SS to write the numbers 1 – 12 down the side of a page.
Next to each number ask them to write the following next to each number: |
1 – the name of a famous man
2 – the name of a famous woman
3 – a noun (an object)
4 – an adjective
5 – an emotion (different to 4)
6 – an animal
7 – a vegetable or fruit
8 – a noun (an object different to 3)
9 – a verb in the infinitive (with “to”)
10 – a preposition
11 – a location / place
12 – the name of the person sitting two spaces to their left
Then tell the SS they’re going to do a dictation. But when you say a number, they substitute the word(s) they wrote in their list.
Dictate the following:
Dear Uncle (1) and Aunty (2),
Thank you very much for the (3), it was really (4) and I was very (5) you gave it to me.
This year, instead of turkey for Christmas lunch, Mum cooked (6) and (7), which was nice.
I hope you liked the (8) we gave you, it was really difficult (9).
Well, that’s all from me. I look forward to seeing you (10) (11).
Lots of love,
(12)
SS then find the person two spaces to their left and read them the letter.
Monitor and choose some choice examples to be read out to the class!
One more for the site!
