Pre-reading1. Play the game ‘I have never…’. You can do this in

writing or orally.You all know the game: ‘Ik heb nog nooit…’. If you don’t know the game, it is quite simple. Think of something you have never done before. Start your sentence with ‘I have never……’

a. Write down and compare with a classmate. Start your sentence with ‘I have never...’

b. If you do this orally, you can start by giving them statements. Let your students try to make their own ‘I have never...’.You can make your student walk from left (I did that) to right (I never did that) in your classroom. If you don’t have the space, you can also to this by letting student stand up (I did that) and sit down (I never did that).

2. Make your own bucket list.A bucket list is a list of things you want to do before you die. Things you never did, but always wanted to do. Things you never dared to do. Cities you always wanted to see. Places you want to visit. People you want to meet.

Try to think of at least 5 things to put on your bucket list. Afterwards, you can discuss this with your neighbour. Start your sentence with ‘I’m going to…’.

PoemMay 2013

I’ve Never... By Kate Fox.

I’ve never worn a onesie in public,I’ve never played a spoon,I’ve never done a bungee jumpI’ve never gone up in a hot air balloon.

I’ve never eaten a grasshopper,I’ve never flown to Peru,I’ve never scattered rose petals onto a bedI’ve never had a tattoo

I’ve never danced like Bryan Ferryand I’ve never been to Glastonbury I’ve never ridden an elephant,I’ve never read War and PeaceI’ve never kissed a girl,I’ve never knitted a fleece.

I’ve never had an affair with John Terryand I’ve never been to Glastonbury

I could carry on listing forever,these things that I’ve never done,but now I’m going to experiencethousands of them in one.

I’m going to see the Rolling Stones,I’m going to be magnetically healed.I’m going to talk to strangers whilst poo-ing,I’m going to sleep in a massive field.

I’m going to buy waterproof outfits,I’m going to use a She Wee,I’m going to discover the next big thingI’m going to feel free

There are so many things we’ll never do,many of them unnecessary,but for me this one’s a rite of passage,I’m finally going to Glastonbury!

Teacher’s guide.This poem is for students who like to go to music festivals. If not, most students will still know festivals like Pinkpop and Lowlands. The poem is easy to read, no difficult words and it is of interest for your students.

The exercises in this worksheet aren’t all mandatory. You, as teacher, can pick &mix your own worksheet. The chosen exercises depend on the level of your students, their interests, time and creativity.

After each video clip url is the duration of the clip given in this format (minutes:seconds). Because of this you can see how long the clip will take if you show it completely. It is up to you if you want to show the whole clip or a small part of it. We suggest that you show you students a clip 3 minutes maximum.

Play the game ‘I have never.You can do this on paper or orally.

Written. (5-10min)Let your students write down 5 to 10 things which they have never done before. Each sentence starts with ‘I have never...’ followed by a past participle, because of the present perfect. However, if your students haven’t had the present perfect yet, you can give them some examples on which they can base their own ‘I have never..’s. Write them on the blackboard.For example: - I have never been to.... (place or country)- I have never been.....(activity)- I have never talked....- I have never walked....- I have never worn....- I have never drunk.....After the students have written 5 to 10 sentences, you can let them discuss their list with a classmate. After they did this let each student read one ‘I have never...’ out loud. This way you can check if they understood the exercise and also learn something about your students.

The goal of this exercise is (limited) using the present perfect without knowing the grammar rules. Student will be able to make a short list of things which they have never done before. This is effective because students will be actively working with this exercise. They see examples, listen (understand) and respond to them. Your students learn how to make an ‘I have never..’ sentence by using the example sentences. The language is authentic and related to the students.

10

CLASSROOM

I did that

I have never done that

Orally. (10min)If you decide to do this exercise orally you can use the same basics as for the written part. Again, it might be easier to start them off with a couple of sentences. Very important is that you let your students also make their own sentences.

You have to come up with a way to separate the ‘I did that’-students and the ‘I have never done that’-students. We will give you two options.

Option A. Let your students walk from left to right, corresponding with their answer to the statement. This way, your students are active.

Option B. If you have too many students, it might be better to let them stay at their table otherwise it might be too chaotic. Let your students stand up if they already did it, and let them sit down if they have never done it.

You can also watch a YouTube video of ‘I have never’ the drinking game. This might not be suitable for younger students; they might get the wrong idea. The YouTube video is easy to watch, simple and clear English.

The goal of this exercise is (limited) using the present perfect without knowing the grammar rules. Student will be able to make a short list of things which they have never done before. This is effective because students will be actively working with this exercise. They see examples, listen (understand) and respond to them. Your students learn how to make an ‘I have never..’ sentence by using the example sentences.

Make your own bucket list. (5-10min)A bucket list is a list of things you want to do before a period of time ends. The exercise is self-explanatory. The questions should be answered individually and discussed in pairs. Again you can let your students read one bucket list item out loud in class to check if they understood the exercise.If you want, you can let them write it on a separate piece of paper and let them hand it in. You can grade them, or just check them and hand them back.

After this exercise your students will be able to make a short bucket list. This is a simple exercise with a repetition of the beginning (I am going to) of the sentence. By repeating your students will see a pattern in the exercise. That pattern is the base for the grammatical tense ‘Future’.

Know your festivals. (5-10min)If your students are a little older they probably know some music festivals. If they do, this exercise is perfect for them. They only have to connect the name of the festival to their location. If they do not know all the festivals, don’t worry. Individually, in pairs or in groups, they will know a lot more than they suspect. To check this, you can pick students to read a connection out loud. If you are handy with a smart board, you can let students drag lines between name and location on the smart board.

Your students will get an idea of all the different places where music festivals are held. The student will be able to name at least 3 festivals by name.

To give the students a general idea of the different music festivals, you can show them some YouTube clips. You can pick yourself which ones you want to show and for how long. Try to give them a short impression.

Watch the YouTube clip. (5-20min)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVhnxKP3kj0 (1:38)

Let you students watch the YouTube video. The first time, just let them watch it. They don’t have to do anything. During the second time, let them write down a couple of things they suspect Glastonbury Festival is about. You can let them discuss it in pairs (when the video is over) or in groups. If they are finished, let each group/pair/student tell something about Glastonbury Festival.

If you have the time you can tell them something about Glastonbury Festival. Another option is to give the students the text below on paper, they can read it themselves. If you give the information to the students, check it first according to their level of English. You might want to include a wordlist.

This exercise gives your students a bit of English culture. Your students will be able to tell something about Glastonbury Festival. Covered in a ‘fun’ theme, your students will learn about the history of Glastonbury Festival.

Glastonbury Festival is the largest greenfield music and performing arts festival in the world and a template for all the festivals that have come after it. The difference is that Glastonbury has all the best aspects of being at a Festival in one astonishing bundle.

It's like going to another country, a hip and thrilling Brigadoon that appears every year or so. Coming to Glastonbury involves a fair amount of travel, and probably a queue to get in but, when you get past these impediments, you enter a huge tented city, a mini-state under canvas. British law still applies, but the rules of society are a bit different, a little bit freer. Everyone is here to have a wild time in their own way.

The Festival site has distinct socio-geographic regions. The more commercial aspects are around the Pyramid, Other and Dance stages, which feels as if the West End of London a Saturday night has been removed to a field and thoroughly beautified. Unlike the West End, visitors are on every guest list, from the night time cinemas to the biggest gigs.

But that busy whirl of excitement is not to everyone's taste. To accomodate the more laid-back reveller, more chilled out areas like the Jazzworld and Acoustic areas are in easy walking distance. If that's still not the relaxed state a Glasto-goer is after, there's also family oriented areas like the Kidz Field, the Theatre and Circus fields. And if you're into the more alternative, less noisy aspects of festival life, you can always head up to the Field of Avalon, the Tipi Field, and the Green Fields. At the top of the site is the Sacred Space - the stone circle is a modern construction, but it has already seen as much celebration and ceremony as some of its forebears. Sun-up on a Sunday morning, with drums and torches and chanting and an astonishing measure of joy from the sleepless revellers at the Stone Circle is a glorious sight to behold.

14

The Festival takes place in a beautiful location - 900 acres in the Vale of Avalon, an area steeped in symbolism, mythology and religious traditions dating back many hundreds of years. It's where King Arthur may be buried, where Joseph of Arimathea is said to have walked, where leylines converge. And the site is ENORMOUS - more than a mile and a half across, with a perimeter of about eight and a half miles.

Then there are the people, thousands of them in all their astonishing and splendid diversity! There is only one common characteristic of a Glastonbury-goer - they understand that Glastonbury Festival offers them more opportunity than any other happening to have the best weekend of the year or even of a life-time, and they are determined to have it! You'll meet all kinds of people, of all ages, backgrounds, nationalities, lifestyles, faiths, concepts of fashion (or lack of it) and musical taste. Some will undoubtedly wear silly hats, or buy shirts that they'll never wear again... until next year, that is. The overall vibe of the Festival is consistently mellow and friendly, even in the event of rain and all that comes with rain, a field and thousands upon thousands of tramping feet.

There will be moments when you ask yourself the inevitable: "Why can't life always be like this?" There will be enlightenments, awakenings, surreal happenings, Damascene epiphanies and people doing the strangest things in public. Sometimes the strangest things you'll see happening have been booked well in advance - but often it will be people spontaneously reacting to the spirit of the Festival. No two people's Festival experience will be the same unless they're tied together, in which case they're probably part of a theatre company.

It's best not to come to Glastonbury with a head full of preconceptions and a notebook full of plans of what you want to see. If there are one or two particular bands a day you really want to see, then let your day revolve around them and go with the flow. Hurrying between stages so you can tick off a list of things you feel you must see is not the best way to enjoy Glastonbury. If you can't get a good vantage point, or aren't enjoying a show, move on; there'll be something else in the next field that might just change your way of seeing the world! Often, your best memories of the Festival will be of new things that have startled you with their brilliance.

Have a good look at the Line-up and Areas pages on this site and at the Festival programme when you are on site, or ask at Information points. There are a plethora of wonders to be seen, heard or just caught from the corner of your eye. Glastonbury runs like a huge clock - it is the Big Ben of Festivals after all - and it is best not to stay staring at just one of the huge cogs, however many famous spokes it has. Travel round it clockwise and investigate all the workings of the Festival. All those other stages and attractions wouldn't be there if they weren't worth taking in - and they are all capable of surprising a visitor.

One last instruction: whilst at Glastonbury Festival forget all instructions (as long as doing so involves hurting no one) and ENJOY!

Poem. (2-5min)The first time the teacher will read the poem out loud. Try to read the ‘I have never..’ part with regret, and the ‘I’m going to…’ part with optimism. Pay attention to the rhyme while reading.

If some students are up for it, you can let them read a part out loud.

The goal is to let students pronounce the words correctly.

Match the pictures to the words in the poem. (5min)For some students it is easier to understand certain words when they have an image with them. Read the poem a third time. While reading let your students find words with the pictures. Let them do it individually. You can check the answers by showing the pictures one by one on a smart board (PowerPoint) and let a student write down the correct answer below the picture.

Connection words and pictures will be helpful for students who have trouble with English. A picture can say more than a thousand words. The goal is that your students will know what the words mean.

Which words rhyme? (5min)Make a choice for the easy or hard version of this exercise based on the level of you class.The rhyme is based on the pronunciation of the words. For your students is it easier to do this exercise if you read the poem slowly. However if your students are up for it, they can try it without you reading it out loud. Let them to this individually if you read out loud or in groups/pairs when they have to do it on their own. You can check this by letting a student write one pair on the board and let them pronounce it correctly. This way they learn to pronounce words. They also learn a bit between the difference of a written words and its pronunciation.

Practicing the pronunciation will help students be better at speaking English. Seeing that words are written differently but pronounced the same will help them in further tasks. Your students will be able to pronounce healed/field and peace/fleece.

Make your own poem. (10-15min)For creative writing this is a short exercise. Rhyming might not be simple in a foreign language, but with the help of a rhyme word generator it becomes a lot

16

simpler. http://wikirhymer.com/words/game is a good one. Students can use their phones or a computer.An ‘elfje’ is a short poem consisting of eleven words. You can let them do this individually, or in pairs. Let your students present the poem at the end of the lesson.

Grading can be done with marks, or V (voldoende) or O (onvoldoende).

Poster.Creative exercise. Group assignment.Let your students create their own festival. The assignment is that they have to make an advert for their festival. The student can use anything they want to create the right atmosphere.

The students should be ready to present their poster the next lesson. This might count as a presentation according to your school curriculum.

While grading the poster and presentation, pay attention to the following: - Did your students follow the instructions given in the exercise.- Use of English- Level of English (ERK)- Is the given information clear?- Is the poster clear?- Is the use of English correct (ERK)

Your students need to use all their creative skills and use what they have learned until now. Practicing English in a creative way is for some students an ideal method for learning the language. Without focusing on the grammatical structures and use of English, they do use all their skills.

Grammar.If you have little time besides the curriculum, this is a fun way to introduce the Future or the Present Perfect. The grammar will be explained in the method picked by school.

Write a short essay 1&2.Individual assignment.Let your students write a short essay. You can let them do both exercises and make them short or you can pick one exercise and make the essay longer. The amount of words depends on the level of English of your students.Let your students hand the essay(s) in before the next lesson.

17

Give them a checklist based on how you are going to grade it. An example checklist is added to this document. You do not have to use this checklist. This checklist is a guideline for students. It shows the points the teacher will grade them on.

You can grade this as a ‘Personal Narrative’. Rubric scoring sheet is added to this document. You do not have to use this rubric scoring card.

If you use the Rubric scoring cards for grading, you can calculate the mark with the formula (points/max. points) x 9 + 1 = ….

The students put their creative writing skills to the test with this assignment. The end result should consist of a clear essay. The student should be able to follow the instructions and use the ‘self-assessment’ card.

I’ve Never... By Kate Fox.
