Get here and you are ready to study in English at university

If you think you had ran out of topics that can help students increase their vocabulary and at the same time help them to learn something that can benefit their lives it is because you had not stumbled upon this beautifully designed “SLEEP” presentation, in which you can begin a conversation regarding: 



A brief introduction of the importance of sleep.

3 reasons why sleep is as crucial as food and water

5 chronic diseases that are likely to happen if sleeping is not given its vital magnitude.

Also 5 pieces of advice to get a good night sleep in order to get the benefits of such a mysterious evolutionary human behavior.



Sleep

In this PPT you will find a list of different foods that will help you fall asleep. Each slide contains the type of food, a picture of the food and a brief explanation why that food makes it easier for us to fall asleep. It's great for an interactive discussion class. Students learn about the health benefits of different types of foods, get an opportunity to give advice to others and discuss their advice with the class. I've been teaching a class about food for more than two years and used this PPT a couple of times. The students always found it interesting. It gives you an opportunity to teach the students something new in their target language as well as using the newly acquired language. I suggest keeping the class loose and fun with a warm up about sleeping habits and what the students do when they can't sleep, followed by a discussion on what you should or shouldn't do to help you sleep. Then introduce the foods on the PPT (you might have to explain some of the more advanced words in simple terms or look those words up in a dictionary) and go through them one by one, giving the students the opportunity to take notes. After you showed the students all the different types of foods, close the PPT and ask the students how many different foods they remember, then ask them to work in groups to come up with a plan on how to incorporate those foods into our diet. 

Foods That Help You Sleep

PPT for a lesson from Success Pre-Intermediate, Pearson/Longman

why sleep is the best medicine?

Speak as much as possible about a given topic (pictures). Students can work in pairs or in bigger groups. If you like, you can use a stopwatch and make students speak for any time given. Students can change groups after some time and share info with their new group.

A speaking activity about sleeping and feelings or actions connected to it.

Here are 34 first person present continuous cards.



Another teacher uploaded them as very small cards. I scanned them, enlarged them, and added some color.



I suggest you round the edges off and laminate them. That way, they'll be useful.....FOREVER!



PS - Before you laminate them, add a full-stop (with a felt pen) to the sentences, as this was overlooked by whoever created them initially.

I am (V)ing. Small Flash Cards

Some students REALLY have a hard time making the Z sound. I made this PPT to introduce the Z sound and some Z words. 


I suggest having the students pretend like they are sleeping and/or having them fly around the class like bees.

Phonics Z

After the first ppt, you can use this to teach furnitures. I placed the furnitures in an order. For example what do you do in the liv.room, - we watch tv, where do you sit, on an armchair- if it isn't comfortable we lie on a sofa...or where do you sleep - on a bed- if you wake up you turn on the lights- you go to the wardrobe and look at the mirror.etc

House and objects

This is a PowerPoint for students working on the topic of going on holiday. It is a great way to lead to a discussion.

There is a video to watch on the first slide (click on the photo to go to a link on YouTube)

You may wish to pre teach key words before such as reception, sleeping bag, buffet etc 





The Ice Hotel

Here's a most enjoyable game to test your knowledge on four different content categories and corresponding vocabulary/grammar. I employed diverse formats in the making of quiz items. Hope this will come in handy for your syllabi. Regards. 

JEOPARDY GAME (4 CATEGORIES)

This is a simple presentation I made to help my beginner level students learn vocabulary associated with feelings and emotions. For the final slide, the teacher should point to an image and ask a student to identify it using full sentences (i.e. "I'm sleepy). 

How are you feeling? 



I get up at 9 am, I change, then I have my breakfast and then I connect to my virtual classes which are from 9 in the morning to one in the afternoon. In the afternoon I have lunch, do my homework and play for a while.

At night I take my seine, I watch TV for a while, and then I go to my bed and sleep.

Personal Hygiene

This is an activity for students to have fun while dealing with this topic of feelings and emotions: happy, sad, frustrated, angry, hungry, thirsty, scared, bored, hot, cold, sleepy, tired, surprised, etc.

Memory game activity: the teacher/ students select the blue squares on the left/ right in order to see the picture and once more to cover it up again.
