Hi! I teach 1st graders and even smaller children (ages4 and5). I do a lot of colouring and cutting activities. I am a big fan of flashcards and I use them in games. Songs are theoretically a good resource but it doesn �t always work that good. Sometimes I take a ball or a tedy and I use it to get them to practice vocabulary by repeating a word and passing it to someone else. I also play the "message" game ( they whisper a word to the person next to them and it goes around and the last one says the word out loud).
Do you have a book that you can use? If you want send me a PM with the theme that you are dealing with and I �ll see if I can recomend some worksheets or activities. |

Hello!!! I am a teacher English in Brazil. I teach kids, 6-13 years old. I do a lot of games: hope (How old are you? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5..."singing"), flashcards (mime), posters, dominoes, memory game. My children like to cut and glue, puzzles, paint with ink, color, so I do this activities, too.
kisses...

Hi, I also teach in first and second grade. My children from first grade love singing, they have too much energy, so they get bored easily, so you need to keep them busy all the time and use many colors, flash cards as they suggested below, posters, special material such as Play doh, painting with brushes and drawing. If they still don �t read and write very good, try to make activities instead or writting. You �re not supposed to teach them writting and reading unless it is in English, right? So don �t complicate your life too much and let the other teachers teach them those things.
Good luck. Regards from Mexico City |
