Winter/Summer Camps Complete Package

Winter/Summer Camps Complete Package

Your co-teachers right about now are asking you what you are going to do for your English lessons during winter camps, and they want a full schedule of what you’re going to do by tomorrow. Overwhelmed? Don’t be. I’ll give you mine. Here you’ll get the schedule to print out and give to your teacher, as well as all of the handouts and powerpoints. A note about how to use them, though:

1) The last few days are full of different games. I have loaded a few to fill the time, but you can change that up however you want. Most of the games are available through this page, though some are not.

2) PC users take note: everything here is originally made on a Mac. I have converted it all over to Powerpoint format, but it might not look as pretty, or might even look jumbled. If the latter is the case, then you can probably find how it’s supposed to look with each game’s preview video, found on this page as well. The handouts have been saved as Word files if you want to tweak them, or PDFs if you don’t

3) You can pretty much use this as just a complete package of games, and modify them for the next school year, if you’d like. This package is also good for Summer, which is why you’ll see some of the games with a Summer heading.

My school wants a 10-lesson plan by Monday. Eatyourkimchi is saving my life right now. Thanks!

Ha! Glad to be of service!

My co-teacher asked for a schedule and wants it "IMMEDIATELY" — but she mentioned to me my camp will be 4 classes a day for 10 days. This looks like it is designed for 2 classes, or ~2 hours a day… correct?

http://www.eatyourkimchi.com Eatyourkimchi
Yes, this is two classes a day, for two hours a day. Every "hour," though is just one class, which is 45 minutes. So, technically, it's an hour and a half for each day.
Also, will you be teaching the same group for 4 classes? I had the same deal, except I had a different group for half of the classes, so this was able to work out fine.

Life saver! Two months in the country isnt enough time to have stability in my lesson planning, plus im transitioning from American math instruction to this. Two totally different cows!

Glad you found it useful

Oh, also is there an actual lesson plan? Materials are fantastic but some of them aren't completely self explanatory (like Greetings Kaboom).

I thought that there was an explanation for Kaboom in there? No? I'll look it over.

Everything else seems [retty straight forward

You are amazing to have shared this. I really appricate it thank you. I have been racking my brain trying to come up with ideas for winter camp, you've saved me hours of work.

Sweet! Hope it works out for you

Autumn
Do you have to have iWork to open these?

http://www.eatyourkimchi.com Eatyourkimchi
iWork for the Mac versions, Office for the PC versions, but you can open the PC versions in Office for Mac.

Autumn
Oh, OK! I downloaded the Mac version because I have a MacBook Pro but not iWork. I'll just download the PC version then and see it on the hubby's PC! Thank youuuu from a education student.

Sweet! Hope it works for you!

I've downloaded some of the material but for some reason it wont open. I have a mac thats only a couple of years old, could that be the issue? please advise. Your site and personalities are awesome btw!!

Do you have iWork for Mac? The Mac files are for iWork. PC files are for Office.

Hey guys, thanks a million for this! I know several teachers who willbe using your package this winter camp. I just have one question: How do you play Kaboom? I tried looking it up on the internet, but to no avail. If you could explain, I would appreciate it. Thanks!~ ^^

http://www.eatyourkimchi.com Eatyourkimchi
Damn! I thought the description was in there. Sorry about that! Anyhow, to play Kaboom, you pretty much have four teams or so. One person from Team A walks up to grab a piece of paper from your bag. On the paper is a question. If they can answer it correctly without their team's help, they get a point. If they make a mistake, team B can steal the point. First team to 10 points wins.
If the student gets a piece of paper that says KABOOM, then they can erase another team's points entirely, even if that team was at 9 points. Yeah! Awesome

Mort
Sounds good, but on the PDF you have several numbers, too. What is the purpose of that? 11-15, 21-25, 31-35, 41-45, 51-55.

Those, unfortunately, are part of another game I played for the day, and put in one file to print, yet forgot to remove it afterwards when I exported it into this package. Stupid, I know

Hello and thanks so much for the lessons!
I’m not seeing the game preview videos on this page. Is it somewhere right in front of me? Thanks!

I’m also wondering about the video previews. Did they get deleted on accident?
