This is far from original ... but it works well in groups. I know we are
not supposed to focus on writing in our elementary school lessons but...
I have a few 5th and 6th graders that from time to time are challenging.
I use Genki English a lot in my lessons and to spice it up a little for
these higher grades (and some mixed levels) I have made Word searches for
each Genki English lesson.
I also make sure I do a demo on the whiteboard as a group and I make sure they do it in groups of 3-6 students (so they can help each other)
I use the 8 words used in the GE lesson only.
eg if I was doing , "What sports do you play?", along with a game I would use a Word Search with the words "Rugby",
"Soccer" etc etc
I find its good to have as a back up plan for a lesson that finishes early or problem classes etc
