I have the video itself, but none of the other training materials to go with it. Any ideas on how to use the video on its own?
I haven't used the video yet, except for passive viewing by adult students to give them a break now and then, but I think role play could be fun.
Any other ideas with it? I'd be using it for eight and nine year-olds.
Any ideas on "Muzzy in Gondoland"?

Hi
I've been looking for a copy of it. Didnt want to buy it because it's too expensive and do not know whether the contents will be suitable for my Pri. school students.
Will I be able to buy a "copy" burnt on VCDs from you?
Thanks you: Ju
Hi:
I'm v. interested in getting a copy of the video. Can I then exchange a Cambridge "Playway" or "Join In" Video with you? with a copy of the Teacher's Guide: Ju

I always use the videos with small children AND adults. They all love it. It is full of short scenes that are extremely useful: introducing yourself; describing people; etc.
Here are some ideas: view a scene to say what it is about; view a second time to repeat all the words you heard and understood; (I recorded an audio tape from the video) listen to repeat; watch a last time to roleplay the scene. In groups, prepare the roleplay; act the scene (all the rest applaude and cheer). Depending on the group: instead of or after roleplaying the scene, create a similar situation with different details. For example: the first scene, introducing yourself, change to a *beep* party or business meeting or first day at school and introduce yourself.
Then, students have to write something related to the scene. For example, the first scene: write your identification card or write your business card or invent a character and write his/her ID card, etc.
You can also prepare handouts with soups of letters or crossword puzzles in relation with the vocabulary in the scene, then have the students create their own new vocabulary games.
Each scene is good for 2 or 3 hour activities.
I hope these ideas are useful.
