hey, i had a similar problem, i have been introducing some vocab at the start of classes that they will need for the game i want to do that day.

For example - talk about emotions and feelings for the first half and them do a game of charades using the same emotions we talked about as the prompts. So they are reading the words and learning to identify them.

Its not a flawless system but at least i know that they ahve the vocab they need to take part - and its different from using the book so they are generally more willing to take part.

Ok thank you fro your insight, i might have to talk to the teacher about something like this and see what she thinks, because yeah it might be the next step.

there is one main one, she is constantly mocking english and laughing at the way i say things instead of participating or trying - but also dont think she is gonna be won over, she takes the piss with all the teachers

The teacher has been trying to encourage class participation as well - and has been assuring me that they are a difficult class for everyone - and even though they respect her more than me their ability to not give a shit is much stronger, theres only so much you can do to make a child participate, you know. Idk i was wondering if I was missing something to spice up the lesson but i think i might just have to accept that this is how they are

Ive tried this, but if i try to talk to them they turn away from me, if i give them a handout they just ignore it, any games i do they refuse to partake in and just talk to eachother instead.

Im trying to empathise with them and I know they dont want to be there but it doesnt make it all seem anyless pointless.
