Grammar in Mind 2 TB

Unit 1|Statements, Questions, & Imperatives
Gammar in Mind 2: Teachers Guide
Unit Objectives:
1. Students will learn about sentence types: statements (positives & negatives), questions, imperatives
2. Students will understand the meaning of new words and be able to use the words in grammatically correct sentences.
3. Students will learn major grammar skills and concepts and learn to apply them.
LESSON GUIDE
Discover
Discuss the picture with the students. Encourage brainstorming as to what they see in the picture and the types of things
the students can name. Model some answers (in grammatically correct sentences) for the students if necessary. Explain the
directions of the section. Make sure that the students have a clear understanding of what they are expected to do.
Complete the first question as a class to ensure that all students understand the exercise. Then have the students complete
the rest of the exercise on their own. When completed, go over the answers as a class by calling on individual students to
present their answers to the rest of the class. For further reinforcement offer the students other examples and more indepth explanation of the grammar skills being covered.
Extra Idea (optional):
Kaboom!: Type a list of sentences using the four sentence forms: interrogative, imperative, exclamatory and declarative.
Cut apart the sentences so that each one is on a separate slip of paper. Then fold all the papers and mix them in a basket.
Divide the class into two teams and, one at a time, have each student close his or her eyes and draw a slip of paper. The
student should read the sentence out loud, then identify what type of sentence it is. If he or she is correct, that team gets
one point. If the student is incorrect, say "Kaboom!" His team will then lose all its points and start again from zero. You
can also play another variation of this game by having a student draw the name of a type of sentence from the basket and
then create a sentence of that type. For example, if a student draws the word "declarative," that student would have to say
or write on the board a declarative sentence, such as "The cow jumped over the moon."
Notice and Say

This section is key in helping students gain awareness of the grammar topics they are about to be introduced to. Make sure
to thoroughly explain the grammar topics being introduced. Have students repeat after you or read the examples in the
chart. Offer the students examples of how to apply the grammar topics and encourage student questions.
This part of the unit is extremely important, as it describes and defines the key grammatical topic that will be covered in
the unit. Take as much time as possible to ensure complete student understanding on the topics given. Encourage students
to ask questions as much as possible.
Guided Practice
This section will introduce students to application of the grammar topics covered in the Notice and Say section. Since it
will be the first time for many of the students to apply these skills, many of the exercises will have to be closely guided by
the teacheranswers should be modeled for the students as much as possible.
A) Explain the directions to the students thoroughly. After they have fully understood what the exercise requires have
them complete the exercise. You may have to model the first question as a guide for the students. When all the students
are finished, go over the answers as a class. For students who have incorrect answers reinforce the subject at hand by
explaining exactly what their mistake was.

E) Explain the directions to the students thoroughly. After they have fully understood what the exercise requires have
F) Explain the directions to the students thoroughly. After they have fully understood what the exercise requires have
Other Sentence Games: Play the command game. Have students take turns writing a command sentence on the board,
being sure to use correct punctuation, capitalization and spelling. If it is correct, the other students then have to do what
the command says. Continue until everyone has had a turn. Another option is to pair up students and have them conduct
interviews with each other and transcribe them into their notebooks. Beforehand, review the traditional words that are
used for questions: "who," "what," "where," "when," "why," "how" and "do."
Expanded Practice
This section will offer the opportunity for students to apply what they have learned on their own. For slower classes,
sample answer modeling may be required. Explain all of the directions thoroughly and have the students complete the
exercises.

Unit 2|He is Strong.

Unit Objectives:
1. Students will learn about the verb be: positive & negative.
LESSON GUIDE
Discover
"To Be" Negation Activities: "To be" negation can be tricky for students, especially when it comes to contractions -- why
doesn't "am not" contract to "amn't," and how does "will not be" contract to "won't"? Explain the various forms of
negative contractions for "to be" verbs, then practice by creating teams of two in your class--or practice with just you and
your student in a one-on-one setting. Take turns making positive statements: "This book is mine," "I am a student," "They
are taxi drivers." Play the contradiction game by having the other member of the team fire back with the negative form of
the statement.
Notice and Say

Guided Practice
Simple Positive to Negative: The simplest activity for teaching negative sentences is to assign students a list of positive
sentences to be turned into negative sentences. The younger or more inexperienced in English the student, the less
complicated the sentence should be. Begin with simple present statements: "I watch TV" negates to "I do not watch TV."
Contractions can be taught simultaneously or at a later date. Include a variety of subjects and tenses so students gain
experience with past, present, and future negation -- have them negate variations on the same sentences to see the different
forms. Try "I clean my room," "I cleaned my room," "I will clean my room," "She cleans her room," and so on.

LESSON GUIDE
Discover
No Yes No Game: In pairs, students ask yes/no questions, but they are not allowed to answer with yes or no. For example:
'Are you from this city?' 'I'm from this city.' 'Do you come here often?' 'I sometimes come here.' A very simple game, but
it can also be amusing to play.

Sentence Auctions: This grammar activity is slightly more advanced. Divide your class into groups and tell them what
auctions are and how they work. Then allot each group a certain amount of "money" or points and tell them that they want
to bid only on correct sentences. You then auction off sentences, both correct and incorrect ones. Whichever group ends
up with the most correct sentences wins.

LESSON GUIDE
Discover
Around the World: Flash card games help students with words. Write the singular and plural forms of several nouns on
the front and back of flash cards. If your class has been reviewing specific vocabulary, use these words; otherwise, choose
words of appropriate difficulty. Have your students sit in a circle. Choose one student to stand up behind the student to her
left. Show the two students the "singular" side of the first flash card. The first person to give the correct plural form of this
word moves on to the next student. The student who moves the most spots wins. The object of the game is to make it
"around the world" back to one's original seat. You can also show students the plural and ask for the singular form.
Notice and Say

Guided Practice
Relay Races: Relay races require both teamwork and grammatical understanding. Put students on teams of three to five,
and give the first student from each team a "baton," which could be anything, such as a book or a pencil. At the other end
of the room, set up a station with a puzzle or an exercise for each player to solve. This could be on a computer or on paper,
and it could involve matching, word scrambles, translating from singular to plural, or finding all the singular or plural
nouns in a paragraph. To play, one student runs to the station, solves the first puzzle and races back, handing off the baton
to the next player, who solves the next puzzle. The first team to solve all the puzzles correctly wins.

Unit 5|I Have Some Juice.

Unit Objectives:

LESSON GUIDE
Discover
Wally's World: The teacher writes some phrases on the blackboard. "In Wally's World, there is --" and a blank. Next, "In
Wally's World, there is no --" and a blank. She then writes the same thing, replacing "is" with "are." She then has students
quickly read the sentences, adding their own nouns. This will teach the students which nouns are count nouns and which
are non-count nouns. For example, if the student says, "In Wally's World, there is a cat," then says, "In Wally's World,
there are a cat," the teacher would correct the student, saying, "In Wally's World, there are cats." The teacher explains that
this is a count noun.

Guided Practice
Shopping List Game: This game gets students to get used to using count and non-count nouns correctly. The students and
the teacher get in a circle. The teacher begins with, "I'm going to the store to buy some --" and says an item. Then she says,
"What did you buy at the store?" to the student to her right. The student then says the same sentence, but changes the noun.
The teacher corrects the student if he makes a mistake. For example, if he says, "I'm going to the store to buy some apple,"
the teacher would explain that apple, in this instance, is a count noun and correct him to say, "some apples." The exercise
is continued around the circle.

LESSON GUIDE
Discover
Disappearing Text: Put a text on the board including examples of the meanings of articles that you have presented or are
going to present, and have one student or team of students read it out loud. They then choose one word and that is covered
or erased. The next person or team must then read out the whole text, including the words that have disappeared. They
then choose the next word to disappear. This continues round the class until the whole text has disappeared or they give
up. The same game can also be played in groups by having a grid that covers one A4 page with one word of the text in
each box. The students then cover a word with a small scrap of paper after they have read out the text, continuing until the
whole text (and therefore the whole grid) is covered with scraps of paper. As an extension that involves production, they
can then go onto write similar sentences with lots of articles on a blank grid to challenge other students with.

Tic Tac Toe Grammar: For this fun grammar activity, you can either draw a giant tic tac toe board on your blackboard or
make some in advance. In each square of the grid, you need to put a sentence with a blank where the verb must be. If your
students can fill in the blank with a verb of the proper tense, then they get an X. The trick with this game is that the
teacher must check the answers as the game goes on (which can be a problem when you have a large group of students
divided into pairs.) You can also use this tic tac toe method to practice other parts of grammar, as well. You can have your
students put the given sentence in past tense, finish a sentence correctly, etc.
Notice and Say

Guided Practice
Sentence partners: Give each of your students a word. Give some students subject nouns, others should get verbs, and
some should get adjectives (more advanced classes can have adverbs, prepositions, etc.) Then have your students go about
the classroom and find at least two other students that they can make a sentence with. When everyone has found a
sentence to be a part of, read the sentences to the class, and then do it all over again!

Scavenger Hunt: Students can enjoy themselves while participating in a scavenger hunt while reviewing the grammar
rules for possessives. Make 10 or more labels that you will stick to the applicable objects around the room. Labels might
say, "This globe belongs to Ms. Appleton" or "This mural belongs to the students." Students must find all of the hidden
labels around the room and write down a statement in the possessive form corresponding to each label. For example, for
the examples stated above, students should write "Ms. Appleton's globe" and "The students' mural."

Guided Practice
Memory Game: Pairs or groups of students can play a memory matching game to review possessive pronouns. Half the
cards should have the person forms written on them, such as "I," "you," "he" and "we." The other half of the cards should
have the corresponding possessive pronouns, such as "mine," "yours," "his" and "ours." With all of the cards spread out on
a table face-down, the first player flips two cards over attempting to reveal a matching person-pronoun pair. Students
continue flipping two cards attempting to make a match, while remembering the position of the cards that were previously
flipped. The player to collect the most pairs wins. You can also make a similar memory card game to review possessive
adjectives, such as "my," "your" and "our."

Alphabetical Adjective Story: The teacher should begin with a simple story premise, such as "Once upon a time, there was
a man who wanted to travel all over the world. One day, he decided to fulfill his dream, and..." From there, the teacher
should call on a student and ask him to add a few more sentences to the story. However, the student must use only
adjectives beginning with "A." Once he has told his part of the story, the student should call on another classmate. The
next story contributor should use only adjectives beginning with "B." Allow the story to continue until the entire alphabet
has been covered. The student that has the letter "Z" must give the story an ending.

Guided Practice
Golfing for Adjectives: Select an object and tell your students that they need to describe it using the most vivid, unusual
adjective that they can think of. Call on a student and ask him to give you an adjective. Have him call on another student
to replace the first adjective with one that means close to the same thing. If he cannot think of an equivalent adjective, he
can add a second adjective that means something different instead. The third student must come up with an adjective that
means the same as either the first or second adjective. If he cannot, he can add a third adjective. The goal is to go through
the whole class and end with only one adjective. The fewer the adjectives, the higher the class score. This is an excellent
activity for teaching adjectives and synonyms, and improving vocabulary.

LESSON GUIDE

"To Be" Negation Activities: "To be" negation can be tricky for students, especially when it comes to contractions -- why
doesn't "am not" contract to "amn't," and how does "will not be" contract to "won't"? Explain the various forms of
negative contractions for "to be" verbs, then practice by creating teams of two in your class--or practice with just you and
your student in a one-on-one setting. Take turns making positive statements: "This book is mine," "I am a student," "They
are taxi drivers." Play the contradiction game by having the other member of the team fire back with the negative form of
the statement.
Notice and Say

Guided Practice
Simple Positive to Negative: The simplest activity for teaching negative sentences is to assign students a list of positive
sentences to be turned into negative sentences. The younger or more inexperienced in English the student, the less
complicated the sentence should be. Begin with simple present statements: "I watch TV" negates to "I do not watch TV."
Contractions can be taught simultaneously or at a later date. Include a variety of subjects and tenses so students gain
experience with past, present, and future negation -- have them negate variations on the same sentences to see the different
forms. Try "I clean my room," "I cleaned my room," "I will clean my room," "She cleans her room," and so on.

LESSON GUIDE
Discover
Prepositional Puzzles: Prepositional puzzles can help students explore the structure of a sentence. Print out several
sentences in a large font and cut each sentence apart word by word. Put the pieces of each sentence into individual
envelopes. Divide your class into groups and give each group an envelope. The purpose of the game is to put the sentence
together and then point out which part of the sentence is the prepositional phrase. If you want a faster-paced game, offer
prizes to the first couple groups that finish the puzzle successfully.
Notice and Say

Guided Practice
Prepositional "Mad Libs": "Mad Libs" are word games in which a story has been pre-written but players must fill in the
blanks, without knowing the story, to complete the story. When all the blanks have been filled in, the silly story is read
aloud. If you are creative, write two to three single page stories and erase all of the prepositional phrases from them. You
can also print out free Mad Lib exercises, but they will have all types of words and phrases (see Resources). Call on
students in your class to fill in the blanks with prepositional phrases, not allowing them to repeat the same one twice. Read
the story to the class when it is complete..

Unit 17|Im Watching TV Now.

Unit Objectives:
1. Students will learn about the present progressive: positive.
LESSON GUIDE
Discover
Timeline: A time line helps students visualize a verb tense's function. Simply draw a horizontal line. Label the left end
"past," the middle "present" and the right end "future." Because most beginners studying present progressive should
already have a good understanding of simple present and past, explain to them that an "x" on the time line denotes an
exact moment. For example, an "x" on the left side of the line, along with the verb "to play," becomes "played."
Notice and Say

Guided Practice
Role Playing: This is a fun exercise and can help students understand present progressive. Give each student a note card
with a verb, like "drink" or "write." The students take turns acting out the action, prompting the other students to say, "She
is drinking."

Use both positive and negative statements when teaching present progressive. Questions in this tense also help, as they
prompt students to answer in the correct tense and boost their confidence. For example, ask "Are you studying English
now?" to illicit the response "Yes, I am studying English."

Tic Tac Toe Grammar: For this fun grammar activity, you can either draw a giant tic tac toe board on your blackboard or
make some in advance. In each square of the grid, you need to put a sentence with a blank where the verb must be. If your
students can fill in the blank with a verb of the proper tense, then they get an X. The trick with this game is that the
teacher must check the answers as the game goes on (which can be a problem when you have a large group of students
divided into pairs.) You can also use this tic tac toe method to practice other parts of grammar, as well. You can have your
students put the given sentence in past tense, finish a sentence correctly, etc.
