Lesson plan including material and a card game "The Midnight Society"(adapted version of the popular class game) for EFL/ESL classroomsDuration: 75 - 90 minutesLevel: B1-B2Description:The lesson provides an introduction to activate the students' previous knowledge on the topic of Sherlock Holmes and detective stories. This is then linked to new knowledge (via PowerPoint, handout and a video). Finally, the students are asked to become detectives themselves and use the vocabulary they have learnt. For this purpose, the popular class game was adapted for this lesson and called "The Midnight Society", in which the villagers/detectives have to find out who the murderers are. The specific instructions for the game, as well as an accompanying PowerPoint with a short back story, are also included in this pack.The game can also be used individually and is a good end-of-year activity. It is recommended to play the game with the students more often so that they learn to develop strategies and formulate arguments.Material:1. Lesson Plan2. PowerPoint about Sherlock Holmes in PDF3.
