I don �t really have that much teaching experience. In fact, this is going to be my first year teaching english to kids betwwen the age of 10-15.

 

There is an event that happens every year at the end of the course. It is called � �Open House � �. Where all the teachers and their kids get together in front of the audience (mainly parents), where they show what they have learned so far by the end of the year. Well! I only have 12 minutes with each classroom (I have two, but they are the same level).

 

I was wondering if you could help me out based on your teaching experience, suggesting some activities where my students could show specially SPEAKING/LISTENING/COMPREHENSION habilities.

 

My students are Juniors 2. (They have 6 levels) So they are a pretty basic level.

 

These are some of the skills they should have already:

(The book we use is � �American Inspiration 1 � � MACMILLAN)

 

Well, I think it depends on the "formality" of the class you have to give but I�d do some kind of jeopardy game so they can show their use of English.

When is your class? if you still have time to prepare it,I�ll send some material.

Thank you so much for your reply.

I �d really appreciate your ideas (the jeopardy game sounds great).

I already have some activities prepared, but I am having trouble in finding SPEAKING activities where all the students can participate.

The event is in 2 weeks. But Next week I will be practicing with the kids the activities so they get familiar with them.
