MATERIALS NEEDED:
- KaitenSushi attachments: Worksheet / Song
DETAILED EXPLANATION:
- All of the students form a large circle and start passing around the sushi cards when the music starts. When the music is stopped, the students holding the cards must come to the blackboard and write a sentence using a word with the first letter of the sushi name. For example, "kanpachi" starts with a "k" so a word like "key" is acceptable.
- This activity can used for various grammar points as well. For example, if the grammar point was "How many...?" They have to make a sentence using that point.
VARIATIONS:
- Small groups like lunch groups work great for classes with little space to move the desks around.
TEACHING SUGGESTIONS:
- I used the song, スシ食いねェ！by シブがき隊, it's from 1986! (≧∇≦)
- Make an audio CD with the song you choose. A computer's volume is not enough.
TIPS/CAUTIONS:
- The classroom can become noisy. Don't let the students throw the cards as they should be laminated and tell them to hand them gently to prevent paper cuts.
Files:
We couldn't attach the mp3 that comes with the activity, but I was able to find a karaoke version of the song on Spotify if you have a method of playing it in class (maybe a Bluetooth speaker or something).
