OBJECTIVES

Welcome teachers to Vivadí´s second Cycle!

 

The structure of this cycle may look familiar, as it is similar to the previous one. This will make it easier for you to get used to the planning and class dynamic!

 

The objectives of this cycle has are different from Cycle 1, but continue in the same line. Therefore, the rubric is also different as it is based on these new objectives.

 

Remember we are always available to solve any doubts you may have!

CLASS PLAN

Starting-songldpi.png

1. STARTING SONG

Starting Song - Vivadí
00:00

It is important that the starting song is maintained throughout the cycles to emphasize the beginning of the Vivadí class. This way, we are letting students stay calm because they will know what is going to happen, even if the activities are different in this second cycle. The starting song and the ending song frame the English moment.

Once again, we need students to change the disposition of the class by moving the desks and chairs to the sides and making room in the center of the classroom.

This way, students are in charge of building their own learning space. This makes them protagonists of their process of language acquisition.

2. STORYTELLING

Storytellingldpi.png

In this section, students will understand how narratives exist anywhere. One of the many examples is in songs.

You can choose between these options in no particular order, but, remember how important repetition is. So, if you choose to repeat a song more than once, don’t worry if another song is never told.

OPTION 1:

Major Tom (Coming Home)

Peter Shilling

OPTION 3:

Speak Now (Song Narrative)

OPTION 2:

Livin' on a Prayer

Bon Jovi

CLASS PLANS
1. STARTING SONG
2. STORYTELLING
Starting-songldpi.png

1. STARTING SONG

  • Emphasize that the English class is beginning with a rite that will be repeated in every class.

  • Mess up the class and make room in the centre of it

  • The children take off their shoes

Word-gameldpi.png

3. HANDS-ON!

  • This is the main activity that will follow the narrative in our classes. There are surveys, creative projects, and activities around the school (if that’s a possibility). 
    • The hands-on! activities are always inspired by the narratives, so make sure you check them in advance in order to better choose when each one of them.

Brain-breakldpi.png

5. BRAIN BREAKS

  • It is a transitional break to regain the student's attention, to keep them focused and to integrate their minds and bodies into one same action.

  • At the end of the game, the students should be sitting in a circle in the middle of the room.

Starting-songldpi.png

7. ENDING SONG

  • The idea is to end the English moment with a closing rite that the kids will memorize with the repetition of it.

  • Also, it's time to put the shoes back on and order the class.

Storytellingldpi.png

2. STORYTELLING

  • Let the children listen to a story in English 

  • Always try to generate curiosity in your students by eliciting from them any kind of speculation; and when reading with them, make sure you use your body language so that meaning is clear.

  • The narrative will always be followed by a simple discussion, in which you will ask specific questions about what they’ve heard or seen.

Move-your-hipsldpi.png

4. MOVE YOUR HIPS

  • To let the children’s bodies move freely after staying seated.

  • Connect children's daily activities with school life.

  • Associate mind and body in the same action.

Harmony-timeldpi.png

6. HARMONY TIME

  • Strengthen the student’s familiarity to the practice of harmony so that they feel comfortable to really relax. In other words, we want the practice not to be something new for them.

THE OBJECTIVES OF THIS CYCLE ARE:

  • Consolidate bond with Vivadí’s class.

  • Give meaning to the class' contents.

  • Feel confident to use English during Vivadí´s class.

When you see that there is progress in these areas, you can move on to the next cycle. Check the rubric that will help you know if the group is ready to move forward!

WE SUGGEST YOU CHECK THE EVIDENCES WITH WHICH YOU WILL OBSERVE IF YOUR STUDENTS HAVE ACHIEVED THESE OBJECTIVES​

My class is 25 to 30 minutes long!

We know that some schools work with more frequent and shorter English classes of 25 to 30 minutes. In those cases, we suggest you follow this shortened plan of activities. 

If your friends are in the classroom, say hello.

If you see your teacher smiling, show your teeth

If you want to show your feelings, give a hug

If you feel like being silly, make some noise

 

If you want to get together, make some room

Let your heart feel so much better, make some room

 

Let’s get ready for Vivadi

Let’s have some fun and play with english in our world

Let’s get ready for Vivadi

We are all in this together

We’ll do it you and me

We’ll be a big great family

To ask your students about the video experiences (jornadas), ask them how they did them, if they are liking them so far, which were their favorites, etc.
Light bulb_edited.png

Remember

Before playing the song

"Major Tom (Coming Home)"

  • Tell students they are going to listen to a song that tells a story. They must pay attention to it and try to understand what it is about. 

After playing the song

"Major Tom (Coming Home)"

  • After listening to the song for the first time, ask students if they understood what the story is about. Then, play the video with the lyrics or project the lyrics on the board. Ask them what other details they found out by reading the lyrics.

Before playing the song "Livin' on a Prayer"

  • Ask students if they know any bands from the 80’s. Elicit from them the characteristics of that time, regarding hair, clothes, behavior on stage, and also the way of making music. Tell them they are going to see an example of that, of a band that was immensely popular at them. Ask them to pay attention to those features, and also to what the lyrics say.

After playing the song "Livin' on a Prayer"

  • After listening to the song for the first time, ask students if they understood what the story is about. Then, play the video with the lyrics or project the lyrics on the board. Ask them what other details they found out by reading the lyrics.

Discussion for "Speak Now"

  • What is the story in the song?

  • (after reading the lyrics) What other details did you find out?

MORE STORYTELLING OPTIONS

Discussion for "Breakfast​"

Pre reading

  • Everyone loves pancakes. Some are big, some are small, sweet or salty.
    Before starting the narrative, ask students what they eat for breakfast. Talk about it.

  • Then ask them to close their eyes and imagine a beautiful breakfast table. Then play the video.

  • After watching the video, ask the following questions:

  1.  Did you have breakfast today?

  2. What do you like for breakfast?

  3. Do you like pancakes?

  4. Who makes breakfast at your house?

  5. Do you help prepare breakfast?

The boy who only ate Pancakes,

Written by Kristen Dembaremba,

Illustrated by Ulrike Mieke Marais,

Designed by Nadene Kriel,

Edited by Mandy Collins

 

 

 

 

Pre reading

  • All meals are important, but breakfast is essential for good health. The ideal for breakfast is to eat a little of each food group, which are carbohydrates, proteins and fats, but foods are never made up of just one nutrient, and that is very good.
    Ask them to draw what they eat for breakfast. Use the
    Gallery Walk strategy to make them reflect on what is a healthy and balanced meal. 

Activities

  • Let's make pancakes together! Having previously organized each necessary material, ask each child to help you in the production. If you don't have enough time to make the pancake, ask them to tell them what materials they used to make or bring one ready for them to experience the story. Here is a step-by-step pancake video.

Post Discussion

  • Use the CHAT STATION strategy to help students discuss the questions.

  • Let's discuss the stories – Ideas for talking with kids. Healthy eating, independent thinking.

  1. Why do you think Rekai´s mother wants Rekai to eat more than just pancakes?

  2. Why do you think it might be good to eat all sorts of different things, rather than the same thing all the time?

3. HANDS-ON!
Word-gameldpi.png

3. HANDS-ON! 

Follow the activities that are inspired by the story you just read! 

Inspired by the song "Speak Now"

Game: Speak Now!

How: Ask students to stand behind their desks. You will say a word, and point to the first student in the row. S/he must say another word that begins with the same letter. Example: Map / Monkey / Money / Milk / etc. If a student can’t come up with a word, s/he must sit down. The game will end when only one student is standing.

Online: This activity works online also! The only difference is that students will stand up behind their chairs at home.

General Activities

Game: Song Challenge

Material: Projectable

How: Assign a number to each student. Each one will be responsible for choosing a song that matches their corresponding number. You may either dedicate a class for this sharing of songs or start each day with a couple of them. Remind students that the songs chosen by them need to be school-appropriate!

Online: This works online also!

Game: 2 Truths and a Lie

How: Divide students into trios. Tell them they must think of two things about them that are true, and one thing that is false. Taking turns, they must say the three things in a random order. For example: "I am 14 years old", "I went to Rio last week" and "I have never eaten sushi". The other two students must figure out which one is the lie. 

Online: Put the students into breakout rooms and do the activity. Or do the activity as a class. 

Game: Have You Ever? Bingo 

Material: Projectable

How: Print out bingo handout and give one to each student. As fast as they can, they must tick the things they have done in their lives. The winner is the one that completes either a full line or a full row, and shouts “Bingo!”. If they use the square in the middle, they must provide one thing they have done that is not in the handout.

Online: Instead of giving the students the bingo handout, send it to each of them so they can open it on their computers and play the same way.

Game: Would You Rather

Material: Video 1       Video 2

How: Print out bingo handout and give one to each student. As fast as they can, they must tick the things they have done in their lives. The winner is the one that completes either a full line or a full row, and shouts “Bingo!”. If they use the square in the middle, they must provide one thing they have done that is not in the handout.

Use Move your Hips! activities when you feel students are too distracted or have been seated for too long. The idea is to move and refresh the body, always through learning, and it can be used at any moment of the class. Below you will find some ideas for your age group.

CONCENTRATED MODE

If the kids are concentrated, we propose a few activities that will help you manage the energy of the group.

FREE DANCE

Let them dance one of the following songs on our Spotify list (or Youtube list) that is also aligned with what we have been experiencing in the class. Just select a song that they will enjoy and press play to let them move freely around the space.

EUPHORIC MODE

If the kids are euphoric, we propose a few activities that will help you manage the energy of the group.

CHOREOGRAPHED DANCE

Play either one or both videos so that the students can mimic the motions. This way the students are listening to a song in English and matching the words with their actions.

4. MOVE YOUR HIPS
Move-your-hipsldpi.png

4. MOVE YOUR HIPS

KARAOKE TIME

Music affects the way you learn a new language and it can help you improve your pronunciation and fluency. Working with lyrics is a great way to stimulate the learning of new vocabulary and help students pronounce difficult words.


Ask your students to choose a song from the options below, let them feel part of the decisions in your class. Once they are involved it is more likely that they engage with the activity and feel comfortable practicing their English.

5. BRAIN BREAKS
Brain-breakldpi.png

5.BRAIN BREAKS

the robots bedtime story.png

This is a brain break moment for the kids to change energies and prepare with their minds and their bodies for what follows. This is an optional activity, you don't always have to do it. 

 

You can choose between these options:​

Trading Places

Have students stand behind their pushed-in chairs. Call out a trait, and everyone who has that trait must quickly sit down (students who do not have the trait stay where they are). Examples: “Everyone with curly hair.” “Everyone who ate cereal for breakfast.” “Everyone who is wearing stripes.”. Another option is to form two lines of chairs, one facing the other. Each pair of chairs is designed with one word (or a theme like “animals”, “colors”). The teacher tells a story, and every time the word or theme is said, the kids must change places. You can also add one kid in the middle of the lines, who must try to sit down, allowing some other kid to stand up. 

 Scavenger Hunt

 

Give your students different things to find and explore throughout the classroom or school (or at home if you're online). During each brain break, they can try to find one new item on their list. Some options: blue marker, different color paper clip, paper airplane (they can find a paper sheet and make it), stuffed bear, ruler, colored ball… Give them a list of objects and an amount of time to discover them. 

5.BRAIN BREAKS

This is a brain break moment for the kids to change energies and prepare with their minds and their bodies for what follows. This is an optional activity, you don't always have to do it. 

 

You can choose between these options:​

 Pass the Ball

 

This game is great because you can incorporate a little physical activity and coordination. Get a soft, medium-sized ball and let students grab a spot for themselves around the classroom. The goal is to not let the ball drop to the floor. Students must constantly pass the ball to each other. Every time someone passes the ball, they must say something in english, depending on the teacher’s theme of choice. It can be: animals, colors, foods, desserts, candies, tv shows, jobs…

Online: Don't pass the ball, just quickly say the name of a student and they must say something in english depending on the theme of choice.

  The Atom Game 

 

The teacher must call out different ways for students to move around: like a cat, a dog, an old person, space aliens, mermaids… Then, call out a number with the word “atom” (e.g., “Atom three!”) and the students must join up into groups of three. Any stray “atoms” are out of the game. One idea is to always change the student who is out of the game: when a new kid must leave, the one who is already outside comes back. 

  Riddles

 

Kids love a good riddle. Give them easy ones to see how many they can solve in one brain break, or try to stump them with a tougher riddle. If the kids are able to read, you can give them the riddle, with answers, so they can challenge each other. 

Riddles

  Would You Rather

 

Questions are a good way to get to know people and provoke interesting conversation, stimulating the kids to speak english. Some options will show up on the screen, and the kids must choose one of them. The teacher can also provoke more questions, depending on the will of the students and the class theme. 

Would You Rather

Would You Rather - Among Us Version

6. HARMONY

6. HARMONY

Harmony-timeldpi.png

Now, you will continue activating your bodies. To do this, ask and show the kids how to move the body from their toes to the head:

                                                                                                           - Stand on your feet and lean forward letting your head and arms hang.

                                                                                                                                           - Maintaining that position, shake your body freely.

                     -  Slowly, raise your body back to the standing position. Always remember that the last part of the body to raise is the head.

 

                                                                                                                       - Open your eyes and mouth as big and wide as you can!

Tip: it is a good time to mention parts of the body and make the children start listening to these words.

To end this moment you can ask your kids to give a few jumps to finish activating all the parts of the body.

Now it’s time to start with the harmony activities. When the kids finish jumping and moving their bodies, put this playlist as background  music for the rest of harmony time.

Meanwhile, go ahead and start
with the following activities:
1. ASANA
2. SWARA
3. SAVASANA
4. ANJALI
1. ASANA (Postures)

We will start with the asanas, which means postures. Try these three different positions with your students.
Each position will be related to the story previously read. You can explain to the kids why they connect to the story.

BODY POSTURES

This time, we will start with a short series of body postures. They should be done one after the other in the order shown.

YogaGames-SunSalutation01.png

1. Mountain

Stand on your two feet.

Feel the ground beneath you.

Let your arms hang freely and relax your shoulders.

YogaGames-SunSalutation02.png

2. Sun

Raise your arms up high as if you were reaching for the Sun.

Place your hands together in Anjali mudra.

YogaGames-SunSalutation05.png

3. Dog

Bend down and place your palms flat on the ground. Step your feet back to create an upside-down V shape with your buttocks high in the air. Straighten your legs, relax your head and neck, and look down between your legs

YogaGames-SunSalutation01.png

4. Mountain

Stand on your two feet.

Feel the ground beneath you.

Let your arms hang freely and relax your shoulders.

2. SWARA  (Breathing)

Children should be lying in the floor in a comfortable and easy position for them.

Remind them of the importance of breathing through their nose.

 

Belly Breathing exercise:

- The children should put their hands on their tummies and try to expand their bellies (not their chests) when they breath in.

- Then they should feel their tummies shrink as they breath out. (They should picture their belly buttons push towards their tummies)

3. SAVASANA (Final relaxation)

After the Belly Breathing exercise, you should play a song from this playlist and let them just relax, ideally closing their eyes.

It would be also ideal to:

- Turn off the lights 

- Have the children lay down on the floor

- Have the children covered with a blanket

This song will be repeated every class in this same moment. This will serve as a guide for the kids to, eventually, understand that the final relaxation moment has come. Hopefully, they will gain the confidence to close their eyes when they hear the song as it will be a familiar activity.

4. ANJALI

After the Savasana song, you can ask the kids to sit down again and close the Harmony practice by taking their both hands together to the centre of the chest.

Then, you should say “thank you” to them and they should repeat "thank you" after you.

4-7-8 Calm Breathing Exercise - Relaxing Breath Technique | Meditation I Anxiety reduction and Sleep

Lyrics

If you enjoyed our time together, sing along

If you can’t wait for next class, high five!

To get ready for what follows, tidy up

See you next time dear teacher, good bye!

The things I learnt today will always stay in me

It’s not goodbye with Vivadi

We are all in this together

We’ll do it you and me

We’ll be a big great family
