Group 5 (12-14 year olds)

Welcome to Cycle 4! 

 

Congratulations for the progress you are helping your students achieve. In the following cycle, students should become engaged with the class in an increasingly active and participative manner. This is why some of the proposed activities in Cycle 4 will require a more dearing involvement from the kids.

OBJECTIVES

THE OBJECTIVES OF THIS CYCLE ARE:

  • Consolidate understanding of class structure.

  • Interact with the concepts of past, present, and future.

  • Speak spontaneously and creatively experiment with the target language.

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​

CLASS PLANS

CLASS PLAN

1. STARTING SONG

  • Just like in previous cycles, the Starting Song is the moment for preparation of the Vivadí class. It is also necessary to carry out the playful tasks that the song proposes.

Starting-songldpi.png

3. MOVE YOUR HIPS

  • That students strengthen their sense of team-work and collaborate with their peers in an immersive activity through active participation.

Move-your-hipsldpi.png

5. BRAIN BREAK

  • 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.

Brain-breakldpi.png

7. ENDING SONG

  • To end the class in the same way it started. 

  • That children take responsibility for ordering their learning space and to make them feel owners of it.

Starting-songldpi.png

2. STORYTELLING

  • That children feel protagonists of their learning process by inviting them to engage as creators in a narration experience.

  • To challenge the students to find agreements as a group through the process of choice making.

4. CRAFT TIME

  • .

6. HARMONY TIME

  • To let the children begin to embrace the postures they have been learning and start to play with them. Fewer poses are guided step by step.

1. STARTING SONG

Starting Song - Vivadí
00:00

As always, the Vivadí Class will begin with the Starting Song. Considering one of the main objectives of this cycle, we propose a small activity to start the class and generate spontaneous group responses while the children get ready for Vivadí.

During this cycle, you will play the starting song without giving any indications to the children. In other words, you will stay still and wait to see their reaction to the introduction of the song without giving instructions. Wait for a few seconds and see if they begin to arrange the classroom, or if they take their shoes off, or somehow show that they are ready to start with the class.

Lyrics

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

If you notice that the kids haven’t reacted to the song, you should intervene by giving the usual instructions of the beginning of the class. Nevertheless, it is very important that you try this exercise every class.

TEEN TITANS – GOING TO THE FUTURE

PRE READING

Before watching the video, your students should answer the following questions: 

  1. Do you like superhero comics? 

  2. Do you prefer DC or Marvel? 

  3. What is your favorite superhero and what is his/her super power? 

  4. Imagine what could have happened in the comic books if superheroes didn't exist. How would the stories change? 

  5. How well do you know your superheroes? Take this quiz and find out: https://www.beano.com/posts/the-ultimate-superhero-quiz

  6. Can You Identify All 50 Superheroes From A Screenshot? https://www.zoo.com/quiz/93-people-cant-guess-all-50-superheroes-single-images-can-you

ACTIVITY

Debate: DC vs Marvel 

  • Who is the ultimate superhero? 

  • Which is the best universe? 

  • Would you be a member of the Justice League or an Avenger? 

  • Batman or Spiderman? Thor or Superman? Wonder Woman or Wolverine? 

  • Which are the best comic-books and superhero movies? Pick a side!

Divide students into two groups: DC supporters and Marvel supporters. 

Ask students to prepare arguments to defend their preference and legitimize the favoritism of their choice. 

Each argument with a relevant answer is worth 10 points. The group that has no argument to debate the opposing group loses the game.

THE MYSTERY OF CYBER FRIEND

PRE READING

  • Do you prefer to chat with your friends online or in person?

  • Do you have any virtual friends? If yes, how did you first meet?

  • Are virtual friends as legitimate as real-life friends? Why?

  • Do you think it’s possible to have a real long-distance friendship? Why?

  • What is the best way to make friends online?

  • Are virtual friendships easy to keep?

  • Do you think it's dangerous to make friends online?

  • What are the pros and cons of making friends online?

 

ACTIVITY

The Friendship Game

Yes, we can make friends in the virtual world, but it's different from a friendship offline. Do you agree? You can discuss it with the kids. Friends CAN be a great part of our lives. When we get together with them, it is an opportunity to share and connect, to talk about feelings, our lives, or even problems and also try and help each other! This is a game designed to get the very best out of our friendships. The more honestly and clearly we answer, the faster we advance around the game. The winner is the person who has best demonstrated that bedrock of true friendship: the capacity for sincere, kindly self-disclosure. The game is guaranteed to bring out new facets of our friends and will allow for a series of fascinating moments of revelation and mutual discovery.

Divide students into pairs, preferably among students who are not so close. Then they should ask their colleagues simple questions to get to know them better. You could suggest that students switch pairs on a rotating basis.

 

SUGGESTED QUESTIONS 

  1. What’s your favorite color?

  2. Who is your best friend?

  3. What is your favorite TV program?

  4. If you could visit anywhere in the world, where would you go?

  5. What are you good at?

  6. If you could have a super power, what would it be?

  7. If you could make one wish come true, what would it be?

  8. What are you most afraid of?

  9. What’s your favorite song?

  10. What is your favorite class at school?

  11. What makes you happy?

  12. What makes you sad?

Catch Me If You Can

Divide the class into two groups and then ask them to face one another in two lines. The groups have approximately one minute to look at the opposing team, taking in all details about the individuals in the other group. The two lines turn and face away from the center. Each group has a minute to change things (total of changes determined by the facilitator) about their appearance (Ex.: change a watch to a different wrist, unbutton a button, etc.) The changes must be discrete but visible. The players again turn in to face each other to discover the physical changes that have been made. The team who discovers the most wins.

Are you more like…?

Ask the students to stand in the middle of the room, and then have them move to either side to indicate their choice (they must pick one).

 

Are you more like…

  • a book or a movie?

  • a bank or an outlet?

  • breakfast or dinner?

  • night or day? 

  • Winter or summer?

  • Space or the deep sea?

  • Spotify or Deezer?

  • Youtube or Netflix?

  • the past or the future?

  • a dog or a cat?

  • the beach or the farm?

  • Soccer or volleyball?

  • Gym or yoga?

  • Pizza or sushi?

  • Cell phone or TV?

  • Waking up early or sleeping late?

"September" Lyric Video | TROLLS

You can Bring Home Happy with DreamWorks TROLLS on Digital HD: http://gwi.io/h55ad7 Watch it now on on Blu-ray™, DVD or Digital HD From the creators of Shrek comes DreamWorks Animation’s Trolls, a smart, funny and irreverent comedy about the search for happiness, and just how far some will go to get it. This hilarious film transports audiences to a colorful, wondrous world populated by the overly optimistic Trolls, who have a constant dance in their step and a song on their lips, and the comically pessimistic Bergens, who are only happy when they have trolls in their stomachs. After the Bergens invade Troll Village, Poppy (Kendrick), the happiest Troll ever born, and the overly-cautious curmudgeonly Branch (Timberlake) set off on a journey to rescue her friends. Together, this mismatched duo embarks on a rescue mission full of adventure and mishaps – trying to tolerate each other long enough to get the job done. Utilizing music to further the film's narrative, the Trolls soundtrack is produced by Justin Timberlake and features five original songs including songs by Justin Timberlake, Ariana Grande, Anna Kendrick and Gwen Stefani, in addition to a number of classic hits from the ‘60s through the ‘80s. → Credits ← Edited by: Duncan Rawlings Join the fun on Peacock Kids where you can find an endless supply of laugh-out-loud jokes, lovable characters, life hacks, music, magic, gaming and more! → Watch Something New! ← http://bit.ly/1L3zRrF → SUBSCRIBE TO Peacock Kids! ← https://bit.ly/SubscribePeacockKids

3 Minutes Body Scan Meditation - Mindfulness For Kids And Adults

Able takes you through body scan meditation. Kids love this and so do parents and educators. In Mindfulness for kids, Shamash Alidina describes the body scan as a way to get in touch with the body, let go of feelings of needing to get stuff done, and release pent-up emotions. Just like other forms of meditation, the body scan also trains attention. Alidina says: The body scan alternates between a wide and narrow focus of attention; from focusing on your little toe all the way through the entire body. The body scan trains your mind to be able to move from detailed attention to a wider and more spacious awareness from one moment to the next. In our 3.5 minute body scan meditation, we let the practictioner experience the meditation in a fast paced world allowing oneself to be in touch with one's body.. About Fablefy: Fly With Able and Fy is our series that brings #mindfulness to you and your children. In this video, Able and Fy talk about simple breathing meditation. Check our website for more: http://www.fablefy.com https://www.facebook.com/fablefy/ https://twitter.com/fablefy https://www.pinterest.com/fablefy/ https://soundcloud.com/user-695567368 Podcasts: fablefy Other reading: Could yoga and meditation be a good choice for kids just like adults? Continue reading: By practicing yoga poses and meditation, children can learn how to exercise, develop confidence, and concentrate better. Because children encounter emotional, social, and physical challenges or conflicts, a dedicated and intentional yoga and mindfulness practice that includes breathing techniques, behavioral guidelines, and physical postures can be incredibly valuable. Meditation and yoga is something children can practice anywhere and that the breathing, the concentration, the poses, and the way kids learn to act or react to situations, will lead to constant self-discovery and inquisitiveness. Plus, yoga is portable, and no mat, no shoes, no special wear or special clothing, or special pillow is absolutely necessary. In this video, we use music and animation to bring simple exercises to children and also make them breath.

Ending Song - Vivadí

Finally, as always, you will sing our well-known Ending Song. 

Make sure everyone sings it out loud together. Encourage, especially those kids that don't participate much in class, to see if they can repeat the song phonetically. 

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!

 

It’s not goodbye with Vivadi

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

Do not forget to put the class back in order while you sing. 

To remind your students to access the platform and do the jornadas.

Don't forget
