I'm sorry for my late commenting.
We tought you about inf. in last class. Junior high school secondly grade ss met that structure. In my opinion, inf. is one of the most difficult structure to teach. But we managed to make the part of class.
The strong point
Our class was based on real class. So I never thought to complete our class like a real class, and we did teaching stay in 10 minites.
The weak point
As Mr. Hall said, our class contained more mechanical practice than meaningful it.

Improved typical communicative activities
Interview
First, ss make their plans on after school (e.x. shopping, playing, etc…), and repeat interview to another ss. Next, if ss find the other have same plan on interview, he or she make a promise with that student. And all time table are filled with promise, ss sit down his seat. Of coarse if ss have a promise, he must refuse the invitation. Some ss are able to fill in time after school are winner.
Using movement
If I am a teacher, I indicate pretending not half the class but the students who is top of each line. Next, the ss show the pretending to ss sitting back to him. And the movements are continued until last ss receive this pretending, he or she answers the actors what they are doing. On this game, ss group contend for best speed and accurateness of the answer.

Alcohol
One of the most important things for me is Alcohol. Taking alcohol leads me get drunk. Too much drunkenness spends your precious time. But people drink.
I don’t know when I love drinking, it ran after I started this part time job. First, I can drink beer. Next, sometimes I become having wine. Of course I love spirits, now my best beverage is whiskey. I can drink except Sho-tyu. Especially whiskey makes my life calm. That taste sends me mad! It have good aroma, beautiful color, and never tire flavor. It is interesting that differences show by the land. Before all, what long time it is still that taste is made!! The better thing needs more than 10 years, certain bottles needs 30 years. As the case stands, whiskey hangs and never leaves me.

Our stories of studying English in secondary school
Frankly speaking, I little remember about studying English in secondary school. I think it cause by not good experience of learning English. Especially, in high school, it is said that we were studied for getting through the examination. In this position, I can say most of studying English in high school is least valuable and enjoyable language learning activity.
Though there were some valuable language learning activity and enjoyable language learning experience. First is ward game. I'm sorry I don't remember its rule, I enjoyed these game. (e.x. line ward game) And it was help for me to learn English wards. Second, having conversations with ALT is very good activity, I think. Because we never use English in usual, there is not better activity than that. But this activity has big problem. It is that Japanese students are too shy. They fear to mistake in conversation, so they seldom try to talk with ALT. I think if we can bleak this situation, this activity is one of the best activity.
After all, we should not teach only "受験英語". I think Learning pleasure of conversation leads students being good at English. Therefore we need to try to have students get minimum conversation skill.
