Cartoons for very young learners
|
|
HI there!
I �ve just discovered some cartoons named Peppa Pig, they are aimed at very young learners of English (I think) and they are fabulous. So I strobgly recommend them if you use videos in class.
NOw, my question is: Do you know about any other cartoons suitable for young learners (or Primary)?
Thanks in advance,

I �m a huge fan of Manny Manitas (personally - I haven �t actually tried it in class!). You can probably find him on youtube - he �s a Disney character who lives in an English-Spanish speaking town.

Kids love Pocoyo - not much talk there, so if they �re very little... and try this by all means, for ideas and materials http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/characters/
You know what I did with some elementary kids once, and it was a blast - we watched Mr. Bean and they �synchronised � it - they had to say what the people on the show would say if they used words (you can also use Mr Bean cartoons) - there �s nothing like laughter to get things going...

I love Peppa the Pig as well. Another good one is Postman Pat and Balamory. I think you can get them on the cbeebies website as previously suggested. Another one there is Mr Maker. I sometimes have craft times and we talk through what we are going to do to practice vocabulary and then I put the video on and then we all make it together. My kids at school love it and they learn loads.

Let me suggest Bob the builder, too.
