Welcome everyone to English with Jill the kids edition. I will be posting activities and ideas that I have found useful in my years of English teaching. Kids can be difficult if you are not well prepared! So here it is and enjoy!
Teaching Family vocabulary can be a fun and creative time for young learners. First you need to teach them the vocabulary . You will find below some fun family trees that you can use for any age, even those that don't know how to read!
After they have learned the vocabulary they can make there own family trees. Below are some creative ideas. They can bring in pictures or simply color their family members. I find it more amusing when the kids draw their own family members!
I am currently working on a couple of fun English games for children. One involves a search through the jungle to search for lost treasure, using the help from animals and action verbs. Then I have a grocery shopping game where the students need to go around to each shop and collect items. I am hoping to have it by the end of the week! Please tell me some of your ideas so that I may use them for more games. I also have a 2 part lesson on food with the very hungry caterpillar that I will be putting up soon.
