Huggy Wuggy and The Experiment
+ Using chart prompts to create vocabulary exercises
Note: Zip file download of all exercises and the best prompt templates for today’s exercises are in the paid subscriber section at the end of the post. There are some extra exercises in the zip download.
1 The Huggy Wuggy Chronicles (pre-intermediate and up)
The Huggy Wuggy Chronicles is an exercise about the viral success of the fictional creature, Huggy Wuggy.
Also, I want to note that I used a chart prompt to create a vocabulary exercise for the Huggy Wuggy PDF. The prompt is at the end of the post. This is something I find extremely cool and time-saving. It just needed a touch of editing - mixing the words around a bit.
2 The Experiment (vocabulary introduction)
If you teach English as a second language to science or medical science students, the exercises below might be useful. I have created a series of related exercises under the title, “The Experiment”. This first exercise introduces basic vocabulary for talking about experiments and laboratory work.
3 The Experiment 1 (conversation )
This exercise follows on from the one above, focusing on the same vocabulary.
4 The Experiment 2 (conversation )
This conversation broadens the vocabulary to include vocabulary describing trends and graphs. Students will need to understand this vocabulary before attempting this (see February 21st post).
5 The Experiment (live!)
This is an older exercise, but I added it as it complements the exercises above (especially 2 and 3).
