              1  Guess My Feeling

          This guessing game aims to have students describe their moods. The activity is expected to help
          students with vocabulary related to moods and feelings.

          Materials and Preparation
          Worksheet with the adjectives related to feelings (one worksheet for Group A and one for Group B)
          given on page 108
          As a preparation, the teacher cuts out the worksheet.


          Procedure
          1  Divide the class into two groups and hand out the worksheets to each group.
          2  Ask students to jot down five things they associate with the adjectives on the worksheets.

             E.g. For the adjective “hopeful” students may write trees, smiling people, new friends, sunsets,
                 butterflies, etc. as the words/phrases they associate the adjective with.

          3  Give them some time to think about the adjectives and write their answers.
          4  When they are finished, a member of Team A reads aloud an adjective randomly. Members of Team
             B make guesses about what phrases Team A may have come up with.
          5  Remind them that for each correct guess with Team A’s list, Team B awards one point.
          6  When Team A’s answers are finished, it is Team B’s turn to go through the same process.
          7  The team with the higher score at the end of the game is to be announced as the winner.


              2  Those Were The Days

          The activity aims to have students describe their moods based on specific pictures and develop their
          speaking skills.


          Materials and Preparation
          Pictures on page 109-118
          As a preparation, the teacher cuts out the pictures.


          Procedure
          1  Put students into groups of four or five.
          2  Stick the pictures on the board or display them on the interactive whiteboard.
          3  Have students examine the pictures and then close their eyes. Afterwards, ask them to think about
             what those pictures remind them of.
          4  Next, the teacher asks students about their feelings/moods related to the pictures and writes the
             answers on the board.
          5  Finally, discuss the most common feelings/moods for each picture.
          6  As a follow-up activity, the teacher could ask students to draw their own pictures and ask the other
             ones to share their feelings/moods about them.
