Biorhythms - April 16, 2018
Lesson Collection #5 - Lesson 5
Students first create their own biorhythm charts. Then, in pairs, they discuss the items on their "To Do" list. Some of these tasks require more mental, physical OR emotional stamina.
A typical conversation might go like this:
Student A: When's the best time for you to study all night?
Student B: The best time for me to study all night is around
June 14th because I will be UP mentally. How about you?
Student A: That's not the best time for me. How about early July?
Student B: That's OK. How about July 3rd?
Student A: That's fine because I'll be way up mentally around that time.
This lesson guarantees a whole lot of lively discussion, and students will have to not only listen carefully to each other, but they'll have to coordinate their Biorhythmic schedules.
What Makes Our Lessons Different?
Teachers Save Time
Reduce lesson planning and gain freedom in the classroom. With all students busy, the teacher can casually roam around the classroom and offer assistance wherever needed.
Students Learn by Doing
Minutes after beginning each lesson, classes often become noisy. At times, very noisy. Why? Students, in pairs or small groups, actively engage in completing the lesson task. They use English to learn English.
Listening, Speaking, Reading & Writing
Oral communication is important. Listening and speaking have priority in our lessons; students need to carefully listen to each other. Reading is also important for the success of the lessons. The amount of writing required varies.
Fun for Teachers & Students
We believe students learn better when having fun. Our lessons range from silly to serious but each has a solid task-specific educational goal including grammar usage, vocabulary building and fluency improvement to name a few.

Hi Kurt,
Your collection of lesson worksheets is really great. It makes my teaching much easier and funnier. I work in an International House School in Ukraine. We all enjoy your lessons, especially our students. Your illustrations are just great.

My life as an English teacher changed dramatically when I purchased all of the great lessons from EFL4U.com. I use them constantly! My students always light up when I bring one to class. Truly fab. Fun, creative, educational.

Dear Kurt,
Your lessons are professionally done and most of all fun!
We all find your materials more than just a fun filler even though they do liven things up.
I post each of your lessons on a teacher’s exchange board Mondays at school for the other trainers. The feedback has been nothing but praise.
Keep up the good work.
Margaret Ann Doty - EFL Trainer
Dear Kurt,
I have been teaching English in Latvia for 5 years now to such varied student groups as Music College, military and Bible College students. I came across your site about a year ago and it has been incredibly helpful in my teaching. I have found all of my students - from the highest ranking military officer to the most ordinary school-kid - enjoy your lessons. The worksheets and the ideas are fantastic! Thank you so much for making the English teacher’s work easier, more varied and much more enjoyable!!!

Dear Kurt,
I’d like to thank you for the wonderful worksheets; they are very useful, time-saving as well as entertaining, especially for students who don’t want
to learn English.
