Teacher`s corner: T5 class using the zodiac signs



Hello everybody,


I have this material in a printable version with pictures so if you are interested just let me know.
As in Unit 1 of T5 they are learning personality you can use the list of qualities of the zodiac signs in many ways.
I used it by giving each student a list and based on what they read, they tried to guess the signs of their classmates.

Capricornus
POSITIVE
Patient, reliable, warmhearted, loving, persistent, determinedplacid and security loving
NEGATIVE
Jealous, possessive, resentful, inflexible and greed.

Aquarius
POSITIVE
Adventurous, energetic, pioneering, courageous, enthusiastic, confident, dynamic and quick-witted
NEGATIVE
Selfish, quick-tempered, impulsive, impatient and foolhardy.

Pisces
POSITIVE
Adaptable, versatile, communicative, witty, intellectual, eloquent, youthful and lively
NEGATIVE
Nervous, tense, superficial, inconsistent, cunning and inquisitive.

Aries
POSITIVE
Imaginative, sensitive, compassionate, kind, selfless, unworldly, intuitive and sympathetic
NEGATIVE
Escapist, idealistic, secretive, vague, Weak-willed and easily led

Taurus
POSITIVE
Friendly, humanitarian, honest, loyal, original and inventive, independent and intellectual
NEGATIVE
Intractable, perverse, unpredictable, unemotional and detached

Gemini
POSITIVE
Practical, prudent, ambitious, disciplined, patient, careful, humorous and reserved
NEGATIVE
Pessimistic, fatalistic, miserly, grudging over conventional and rigid

These are just some examples. The complete list is too long to be posted here.
Take care

Teacher`s corner: Wallace's idea for T2 class




Dear Wallace shared a great activity for zero classes and can be adpatable to many other levels.

This was done at T2 groups and it was a great success.

You'll need: * Balloons * String * Paper
How to do it:

- Enter the class in silence and don't talk much to them( that itself is already shocking)

- Give each student a piece of paper with a review question from T1

Examples of questions:

1- what's you name?

2- where is your father from?

3- How old are you?

4- What time is it?

5- What's your favorite band?

6-What time is it?

7-What sport do you play?

8- What's your mother's name?

- Students put the question in the balloon and tie it on their legs with the string and the game starts: the purpose it to blow as many balloons as you can and keep yours safe.




-When the students have their balloon blown, they have to take the paper go to the board and write the question

- when the game finishes and all the questions are on the board it's time to work in pairs and interview their classmates. They report to the class.
* Teacher must participate. Remember that until this moment they know nothing about you.


Thanks Wallace. It was greeeeeeeeeeeeeat!
