More about Teaching Adjective Clauses

This week, you will learn about other types of adjective clauses and how to teach them. You will again learn new activities for helping your students practice these other types of adjective clauses. Then you will practice what you've learned by creating your own lesson for students and demonstrate your teaching skills by sharing a video of your instructions to students for feedback from your peers.

Preposition Jeopardy, a review game for

adjective clauses, objects of prepositions.

In this video, I will review the purpose, the preparation of materials,

instructions on how to play, and tips for teachers.

The purpose is to help students review adjective clauses with objects of

preposition in a Jeopardy game.

The tricky thing about these types of adjective clauses is the placement of

the adjective clause pronoun and the preposition within the sentence.

Instead of another guided activity that has students making sentences, this

activity combines a number of ways for the teacher to review with the students.

The materials that you need for this activity are a Jeopardy template and

questions for different categories.

A Jeopardy template has been included for you to use.

Here is an explanation of the template and how to use it.

There are four categories.

Correct, combine, choose, and create.

I will give examples of each category later.

For each category, there are five questions.

Questions typically go from easier to harder because you have a hundred

points versus 500 points.

In total, this template can be filled with 20 questions.

You can add or subtract questions once you download the template.

The first category is correct, which is basically correcting errors and sentences.

Here is an example question.

I visited the school in which you are interested in.

Students are supposed to find and fix the mistake.

When you reveal the answer, you can give them both correct answers.

The first one is, I visited the school in which you are interested.

Or, I visited the school which you are interested in.

The second category is combine, which is combining two sentences together.

Students will use the second sentence as the adjective clause and

insert it into the main sentence.

Here is an example question.

This is the bank.

You can depend on the bank.

It is your choice whether you want students to give every possibility or

if one sentence is enough.

When you reveal the answer, you can put every option for students to check.

This is the bank on which you can depend.

This is the bank which, that, nothing, you can depend on.

The third category is choose, which is choosing the correct sentence.

For example, amongst these three sentences, which is correct?

A, the girl with that he went to the concert is his girlfriend.

B, the girl that he went to the concert with is his girlfriend.

C, the girl whom with he went to the concert is his girlfriend.

Students can only choose one.

Here is the answer.

It's B.

This would also be a good time to review why A and C aren't correct.

The last category is create, which is providing a phrasal verb.

Students need to make a sentence with an adjective clause using the phrasal verb.

For example, I would give the students the phrasal verb, talk about.

The answer could be anything.

So, it is up to you to make the judgement.

However, you can also include an example answer like,

the album you talked about was sold out.

Make sure students understand that they must use the phrasal verb

within the adjective clause so they don't make a sentence like,

I talked about an album that was famous.

That would be considered wrong.

Let's take a look at the Jeopardy template that I have provided for you.

With the template, you will see that the numbers are already hyperlinked,

which means that if you use the presentation view and

you click a number, it will take you to another page where the question is.

Let's try clicking on Correct for 100.

You will see this page.

This is a question.

Again, we are still in the presentation view.

When you press the spacebar, the answer will pop up at the bottom.

Next, you need to return back to the Jeopardy title page to continue the game,

right?

Do you notice the star?

If you click the Star, it will go back to this page.

Since I don't know the level of your students,

I only provided one example question for each category.

You will have to finish the rest of the categories using sentences that your

students would feel comfortable with.

Okay, let's talk about how to play Jeopardy.

It's a very popular game but just in case you've never played it before,

here are the steps.

1, students are put into small teams and one team will be chosen to go first.

2, teach students how to select a question.

They can say, Category for amount.

For example, correct for 100.

3, students have to answer the question correctly to get the points.

4, the next team continues by choosing another question.

And finally 5, the team with the most points is the winner!

Here are some game tips.

After you put students into groups, they can play individually or as a group.

Next, decide how or where you want students to write their answers.

Maybe they can use whiteboards or they can put it on a sheet of paper.

Decide how much time students get to answer each question.

And finally, do you want more competition?

You can subtract the points if the team answers incorrectly.

And here's one general tip.

You can use this Jeopardy template for

any game, you just have to change the categories, questions, and answers.

Jeopardy is a lot of fun, so I hope your students enjoy this one.
