Try eslteachersboard.com navigate your way to lesson plans. They've acquired alot of junk over the past few months but scroll down to when it first started and there are at least ten good ones mixed in there. My kids love a game called pia (low brow word for throw in Chinese), it's especially good for getting the attention of completely out of control or disinterested classes. You write some vocab words in a scattered pattern on the board. Teach the meaning and pronounciation the words if the kids are good. If not throw a wet paper towel at the board. That gets their attention. Then try to quickly get the game going while their interested.

Here's how you play. Two teams, one side of the class vs. the other (or however you organize it). One from each team stands with their back to the board, wet paper towel in hand. You point at a word and their teammates have to say the word to the thrower who then turns around, finds the word and throws. Closest one gets the point. Can play for maybe 15- 20 min and then reveiw the words. Even if it's a bad class you have thier cooperation for the next 5 min.

A version of pin the tail on the donkey is another fun lesson. Draw the outline of the donkey. A blindfolded student is told to draw the tail, ears, eyes, or nose, etc. The rest of the class guides them to the proper spot with up, down, left, right. Usually draw one part and then switch students. Before the game teach or reveiw, up, down, L, R, Eyes, ears, nose. The tail is new to most students. Be sure to mock the silly smile and tail that sticks out of his back as the kids seem to like this.

Hope that helps but together those are only one and a half classes.
