Hide and Seek English, baby! Video Lesson

Date: Apr 25 2008

Themes: Friend, Hobbies

Intro

1. Learn Vocabulary - Learn some new vocabulary before you start the lesson.

2. Read and Prepare - Read the introduction and prepare to hear the audio.

You might not be a kid anymore, but can you still squeeze in a closet or under a bed? OK, then you can still have fun playing hide and seek.

You remember hide and seek, don’t you? One person looks away and counts while all the others hide. The first one to be discovered loses and has to hunt for the others in the next round. That person is called it.

Check out this Cloverfield-inspired video of the Ebaby! cast playing hide and seek.

3. Watch - Watch the video without reading the dialog.

Dialog

1. Watch and Read - Watch the video and read the dialog at the same time.

Mason:  Is anyone…

Marni:  No. Go!

Mason:  Shoot. Marni, I’m sorry.

Mason:  Where am I gonna hide? I gotta find a hiding spot.

Amanda:  Get out of here. You’ll blow it, Mason.

Mason:  Amanda, I’m sorry.

Mason:  Man. Jason stopped counting already.

Jason:  Where is everyone? You guys are good at this.

Mason:  Uh…Uh…

Mason:  What about in the closet?

Devan:  Hey! Go away.

Mason:  I’m sorry

Devan:  This is my spot.

Mason:  Oh no!

Jason:  Hey, there’s Mason! You’re it.

Discussion

When the person who is it is done counting and ready to look for everyone, he or she yells, “Ready or not, here I come!” Mason hears Jason yell those words, but he still doesn’t have a hiding spot!

He looks under the table, but Beren is already there. Marni is already crouched in the corner of the kitchen. He peeks behind the curtains, but Amanda is already there!

So Mason runs upstairs and looks in the closet. Devan tells him to get lost. Now he’s trapped. Jason walks in and tags him.

When’s the last time you played hide and seek? What children’s game do you like to play with your friends?

i think everyone has too many good memories when it comes to the seek-and-hide.so do i.it make our childhood more unforgetable.if you miss the passed time,just cherish more the present for we know the present is another past when time goes on.

the last time i played this game was 4 years ago :D

bwahahaha i was staying in hostel n played with some of my dorm mates bwhahahaha

 

well we made a change… the person who was going to hunt need to be blind folded :p n use a stick to search for the other friends… 

there's a locker which is very3 high… i sat on it n just waited for my friend to search for me…. oooshhh my head was very3 near to the ceiling's fan…. n i can't move… otherwise my head will be cut off by that fan!!!  

my friend who was blind folded searched for me(i was the last one hahah)... she was fumbling the whole locker using a broomstick….n she was ver3 harsh…. OMG she beat my leg!!! 

i screamed because i can't move (u know…. the fan… bwahahah)... n i surrender bwahahhaah 

the next day i got bruise on my left ankle :D

that's what we called "extreme hide n seek" bwahahah :D

If the game has been played in open areas,the seeker would always get annoyed. Because there'er so many hiden spot that you totally have no idea where they could be.

Very nice game. I play this game with my son eveyday, who now is only one year and three months old. In game, I hide and he seek. My son first searchs me behind the door, then in the chest of darwers, then behind the curtain.

i love this game too. when i was a child,  i often play the game with my friends in summer night, all of us were children aged form 7 to 13 .

 all of us would find a place to hide. and only one seeks. he must find the people who hided.

i t's interesting! but now, the children don't play the game as we did, because there is no place to hide. all of the place were builded or planted.

what's a pity!

my childhood is beautiful and interesting! l love it more!
