So we made these hats and we learnt that He is for a boy and She is for a girl! How?
By creating our hats and when I showed a boy we all had to say he......
And we played games!
The template of the hat is here:https://www.bilgeceingilizce.net/worksheets2.html
But we also talked about British Culture!
We learnt that in England people love wearing hats! But most of all they love Tea!
And so we put on our hats and drank tea!
They loved it!
My presentation at Tesol on the 26th of November " Christmas Story telling"
please make a copy or download it in ppt form!
You will probably need to adapt it to your students' level.
After reading and retelling the story....it's time for crafts!
Now that they recognise their feelings, we explain that they don't need to be mixed up!
They can keep them safe in different jars and separate them!
When you sing or jump you are happy!Keep these emotions in the yellow jar!
Fighting and taking things makes you feel angry! You are red now!
I bought some plastic jars from a toy shop and asked them to write down different actions and how they feel! For example: You get a new present! What colour are you?

What makes a good friend? What are the keys that open the door of friendship? What do good friends say, have and do?
You can share thoughts on the board with a Spidergram. And you can give them a key like this...
Then you can make a door and students will be pretending to open by using the right words.
This year we gave our students different situations....For example:
"Your friend is wearing glasses and everyone laughs at her. "
" You got a bad haircut and they make fun of you"
" Your friend is telling you a secret"
Students were given Ball templates with different situations.
And they gave their Goal Answers and their Foul Answers
Make good choices, do the right thing, be responsible, be respectful, use kind words, be polite, say thank you, take turns, hold doors, help others, share... These are some of the values we want to teach our students, don't we?
The bad seed is a story to use! They will remember it throughout the year, you will be reminding them of good actions, it will be your class motto and all of a sudden your students will make an effort to be good seeds! Why? Because they want to be happy and successful! They want to be leaders!
The story is about a seed of a sunflower! The bad seed wasn't always bad. Something happened and he changed. He used to be good. But he was hurt and changed attitude. He started hitting, making fun of others, making noise and all the bad things bad seeds do! But he was sad.... So now, he is trying to to be good. Not always, sometimes! But he is trying. He sometimes waits, he sometimes says please and thank you! And he is happier! Because being good, makes you happy.
This story is fun, it can be dramatised, it can be read and it can be a great start to talk about rules, good choices, good manners.
You can find the flipbook here The story
Also, use prompts, pictures showing good and bad actions and let them decide whether it is good or bad
And you can ask them to write down how they can be good with craft
This is how we decorated the school's corridors!
We made big sunflowers and the projects.
