There is\u00a0a PowerPoint\u00a0and\u00a0a\u00a0worksheet\u00a0for the students to fill-in the blanks as they listen to the songs. The second lesson is <em>Frozen<\/em> themed and covers the topics of inviting someone to do something, and making an excuse for being unable to attend. The PowerPoint\u00a0leads students through examples for politely rejecting an invitation, and follows\u00a0a letter-writing activity where students make an excuse for not being able to build a snowman. The last part of the lesson is a fill-in the blank activity for the lyrics to &#8220;Let It Go.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The files for the lessons are as follows:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/fulbridge.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Can-You-Give-Me-a-Hand-PPT-Secondary-South-Korea-Robyn-Kincaide-2016.pptx\">Can You Give Me a Hand PowerPoint<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/fulbridge.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Can-You-Give-Me-a-Hand-Wksht-A-WordDoc-Secondary-South-Korea-Robyn-Kincaide-2016.docx\">Can You Give Me a Hand Lyrics Worksheet<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/fulbridge.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Making-Excuses-PPT-Secondary-South-Korea-Jessica-Zucker-and-Jet-Cessant-2015.pptx\">Making Excuses PowerPoint<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/fulbridge.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Making-Excuses-Snowman-Worksheet-WordDoc-Secondary-South-Korea-Jessica-Zucker-and-Jet-Cessant-2015.docx\">Making Excuses Snowman Worksheet<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/fulbridge.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Making-Excuses-Worksheet-WordDoc-Secondary-South-Korea-Jessica-Zucker-and-Jet-Cessant-2015.docx\">Making Excuses Worksheet 2<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Visit our lesson catalog again next week for everything you need to cover what is arguably\u00a0the best American food holiday- Thanksgiving!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can You Give Me a Hand? by Robyn Kincaide (South Korea ETA) and Making Excuses by Jessica Zucker and Jet Cessant (South Korea ETA&#8217;s) &nbsp; This week we&#8217;re featuring two secondary-level lessons that incorporate American songs and fill-in the blank lyrics which\u00a0complement instruction on\u00a0key phrases and grammar points.
