Appropriate for grades 34; could be adjusted for 12
Length of activity: 1020
minutes for a class of 30 (depends on class size)
Objectives: cement
vocabulary; conversationally use and interact in English
source: 4th grade teachers at Kanai ES
Materials needed
small vocabulary cards (approximately 2 x 3 in.) (enough for each student to choose one or
two)
paper envelopes of roughly the same size as the cards, with a small window cut in the
middle to show a glimpse of the card that will be put inside (makeshift envelopes of
folded paper are fine) (one for each student)
Both the ALT and the Japanese teacher should walk around the class during this activity and
give prompts to assist students who have difficulty with the dialogue. Teacher participation
in the activity, with teachers also having cards and envelopes, is a good way to do this.
