Children love a
routine!!!
Dopo il blog di supporto a tutti gli
insegnanti di inglese che lavorano con ragazzi della scuola media, la nostra
Elaine si rivolge ora in questa serie speciale a chi insegna ai bambini. Come al
solito, le "lezioni" di Elaine sono ricche di idee e di consigli pratici che
riusciranno certamente a rendere più gradevole ai bambini l'insegnamento
dell'inglese. Il pronunciatore di inglese ReadSpeaker integrato in ogni pagina
consente di ascoltare il testo premendo sul pulsante ASCOLTA IL TESTO. Inoltre è
possibile scegliere anche la varietà di pronuncia che si preferisce: inglese
britannico, americano, australiano, scozzese o indiano! Per operare la scelta
cliccare sul simbolo di ruota dentata quando il player è visibile.
It’s said we
are all creatures of habit. This is particularly true of
children. When the children arrive in the morning, they’ll know what they are going to talk about. Ex. Using a large colourful calendar they are guided to see what day of the week it is. Then they repeat after the teacher, “Today is Monday.” Then they observe the weather chart (complete with sun, clouds, rain, and snow symbols) and they choose the symbol for the day’s weather. Again they repeat after the teacher, “Today is sunny.” If the class is an older class they can add the date too. The teacher can also form the questions for them to answer. “What day is today?, What’s the weather like today?” This routine is important for children. They enjoy doing things in the same way every day. It stimulates their capacity to observe and proves to be an excellent way for them to memorize, in this case, the days of the week and vocabulary regarding weather. I found a nice song about the days of the week on DreamEnglish.com It is very good for them to hear the pronunciation of the days and sing along . When they have more practice with these days, they can also play Scrambled Eggs. The days of the week are written on colourful cards and put on the blackboard ledge in a mixed up order. The children are each given a turn to put the days in the proper order. After doing so, they are to recite together the names of the days of the week. Birthdays are very important to children so it’s a good thing to make their day a special class occasion. First of all the teacher announces the birthday girl or boy. “Today is Ann’s birthday”. Singing the Happy Birthday song here is a must! Then each child can make a birthday card for the birthday girl to bring home. If they are already writing at this time, they can copy Happy Birthday from the blackboard. If not, a nice drawing of the birthday girl and maybe a cake would be nice to suggest for a card. Obviously, when the children are older, they can use the calendar to mark the upcoming class birthdays, perhaps with a heart and the name of the child. They may even work with the teacher suggesting what they can write on the card. Ex. Today is Ann’s birthday. She is 7 years old today. We are happy for her. Happy birthday Ann. Have a wonderful day! After they have decided what to write, they should read it out loud. The children can ask Ann, “How old are you? And she can answer, “I’m 7.” Then the birthday girl can ask each child their age. They will each answer her. This is a nice way to have them begin using questions and answers and a valuable way for the teacher to evaluate pronunciation. Just for a laugh.
Children touring a retirement home were asked by a resident if they had
any questions.
