Hi

In order to motivate my all boy classes which are slacking off a bit. I am starting a series of lessons about things which interest boys.

I started this week with a lesson on cars and transportation which went down well.

As a woman, I am now at a bit of a loss for ideas.
Does anyone out there who teaches all boy classes have any lesson plans they'd like to swap?

Try to incorporate soccer or at least a few soccer player names in your lessons (especially the Korean Musketeers, Park Ji Sung - Manchester Utd; Lee Young Pyo - Tottenham; and Seol Gi Hyeon - Reading).

Describe the face/body of pro wrestlers.
Anything to do with video games. (Not quite sure how you make this one into a lesson, though).
Anything with snack food.

yeah, get them talking about Man U.

my boys were fascinated when i explained american football.

my boyfriend seems to think that boys are more interested in stock market-type stuff than girls.

you could have them plan their own theme park or adventure sport.

oh and obvious computers in general. I gave my kids a spec sheet comparing different computers and they had to construct advertisements comparing 'their' computers.

Show them some rugby. They love rugby.
