A useful list
of vocabulary. You can extend the freetime activities that the children talk
about, and there are lists for a lot of other things too.
You could do the song which I have suggested for Lions, it’s a good sing a long chorus and a bit of a tongue twister. The Dolphins song could also be used for this level.
Also it is possible that we will be doing a competition for Haiku poems about Halloween (ask Jerry) and you will find resources (a description of how to write a Haiku poem and examples) on the www.bcnprimary.pbworks.com site. Special days/Halloween
This is a perfect activity for this age and makes them think about pronunciation.
Acrostic poems are also a good idea at this level.
Horrible noises
Afraid
Lots of sweets
Lightening
Owls
Witches
Exciting
Eating chestnuts
Night
There are Halloween flashcards on the LearnEnglishKids site and some big flashcards on the bcnprimary.pbworks.com site bighalloweenflashcards[1].doc
Another site, (you will LOVE this one)where you will find some fantastic masks and things for kids to make for Halloween is
On this day (4th November 1922) Tutankhamun’s tomb was discovered. A good one for practising Past Simple, as is the fall of the Berlin Wall on 9th November 1989.
Remember, remember the 5th November !!!!! There is material at the back of the book in Find Out 5

If you are working with animals at the moment, then you have an example of a writing task on the wiki at http://bcnprimary.pbworks.com/w/browse/#view=ViewFolder¶m=the%20frog%20writing%20model
Lesson plan
1. The students read the description of the frog and guess what animal it is.
2. Show them the version with the photo.
3. They bring in photos of their favourite animals (or draw them) and on a separate piece of paper they write a description of the animal. These are stuck around the class and labelled with numbers. The students then go round and read each description and put the name of an animal for each number.
4. Students stick the picture of their animal next to their description.
5. They go round again and check to see how many they got right.
6. They stick the picture and the description
together on a card to make a poster to decorate the class.
Another activity that is always successful is to get the children to write the alphabet down the left hand side of the page or in two columns if necessary, then they have quarter of an hour to find an animal for each letter. You may need to read the list to fill in some of the more difficult ones !!!

Afterwards you can look on Google images and show the children the animals they didn't know.

1. It may seem a bit similar to the idea about the animal posters, but kids love writing about their favourite famous people. Get a list of who their favourite people are and tell them to bring in a photo of that person next lesson(you also download a photo of each one for the students in b/w - it would be very unusual if they all brought in a photo on the right day!!!) As with the frog writing, you can get your students to write about the person (give them an example piece of writing as a reading before they do this) and the others guess who it is.
2. Designing a wanted poster is a fun way to write about people (he wears/lives/eats/rides/smokes/drinks/walks/likes)
On the Times Educational Supplement site you can find Police Identikit Information - this is quite a high level - There is a power point giving support and suggested vocabulary. There is also an 'Identikit Worksheet' and a 'Wanted Poster' template. (You need to have an account, but it is free and easy to set up - and well worth it ! )
More wanted poster templates of pirates and cowboys at

The elephant song (Cool Tunes for Kids by Eric Herman)
and you can find a word search and a flip chart (if you have the programme uploaded on your computer) at
You
could treat your kids to a short clip of the film of Alice in Wonderland (As it's her birthday!!!)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNXpnufLVkc Alice falls down the rabbit hole. Get them to guess what
happens next.
And then
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxsHkI0-dPM Alice shrinks. Which
could lead on to work on comparatives and superlatives
.
Also,
Nicole has made some material that you can share if you have a Panthers class.
She’s made
some extra materials to go with The Elephant Song above. The video link is at the bottom of the
following article.
It’s
especially interesting for Primary Purple teachers doing Unit 2.
The ‘Animal
Wordsearch has all the animals from the song and there’s a worksheet named ‘The
Elephant Song’ with before and after activities. Both of these documents are
here:
T:\Shared
Area\2 By teacher\Nicole\Primary Purple 2014-15 or http://bcnprimary.pbworks.com/w/browse/#view=ViewFolder¶m=The%20Elephant%20Song
She has also
prepared an IWB flipchart with the animal vocab from the song (you could do this
as a team matching game). It’s kept in the same folder under ‘The Elephant
Song’.or at http://bcnprimary.pbworks.com/w/browse/#view=ViewFolder¶m=The%20Elephant%20Song

You can make Christmas cards, which often seems a little more grown up to Panthers
and can be just as much fun.
- Get them to bring in old Christmas cards to do collages (I have a big stock if anyone wants some – give me a day’s warning) and remember to concentrate on the text that they write inside the card
- Use white card and decorate the card however you feel is best, use silver paper, white cotton wool and coloured card.
