L & S 16 : My Monster!

Skill : Listening and Speaking
Topic : The Old House (Shapes)
Year : 2

Assalamualaikum and Hi!

I would like to share the activity that I did with my kids on our lesson recently (few days before everyone went back for General Election 14 on the 9th May 2018). This activity is named as My Monster! Why? Simply because they need to draw their monster based on the instructions that I've told them. Let's check it out!

Firstly, I taught them some basic shapes such as circle (round), square and triangle. I also taught simple adjectives such as tall, short, small and big. Something like this one below :



As you can see, I drew an example of monster so that they know what they were about to do later on. Then, I started gave simple instructions. I started with the face of the monster. Let's say something like this :

"The monster has a big round face." (So, the pupils need to draw a big circle on their book)
"For the eyes. It has two eyes. One eye is a big triangle, the other one is a small square."
"For the teeth. It has six teeth. Starting with a triangle, square, circle, triangle, square, circle."
"Its nose has a small triangle shape."
"It has two ears. One is big. the other one is small."

And that's are some of the examples that I did. I can't recall since I taught three classes and I did three different kinds of monsters. Hahaha! Well, this lesson is definitely a bilingual one since I need to translate a bit when the pupils seemed a bit confused. 

Anyway, I only asked them to complete the face part. The other parts of the body were completed by the pupils based on their own preferences. After that, I asked them to name their monster and think about the power that it has. At the end of the lesson, the pupils shared their monsters with the class. That's all! We had fun and my pupils enjoyed the lesson as they kept on laughing at their friends' monsters as well their own.

Check out their drawings below!






























Yeah, we had fun in this lesson. Syukur alhamdulillah the LINUS thing is over and I can finally teach them whatever that I want to. Among the answers that I got from my pupils about their monsters' powers were :

"Boleh lempar bom"
"Boleh panjang tangan"
"Boleh panjat bangunan"
"Boleh panjat pokok"
"Can cook"
"Like Boboiboy"
"Can run"
"Boleh terbang"

and the list continue.... I'm glad that they were thinking outside their boxes which I was pretty amazed on that. Most of them have very low self-esteem and confidence to stand in front of their peers but I did my best to help them to at least showed how their monsters looked like. Yeah, everyone was laughing at their own monsters. Haha! What a day!

Thanks for reading! :)
