Fruits

 

TOPIC: Fruits

LEVEL: Very Young learners (3 and 4 years old)

NAME OF THE GAME: finding the fruit

OBJECTIVES: à Know vocabulary related to food and fruits. à Identify fruits by touch.

CONTENTS: à Name of fruits as healthy food. à Use and develop the sense of touch to recognize fruits.

MATERIALS NEEDED/ APP USED TO CREATE THE GAME: à Plastic fruits that are life-size or not too small. à A cloth bag, not transparent. It can be dark color such as black or navy blue.

DESCRIPTION OF THE GAME AND RULES OF THE GAME: à We put several plastic fruits in a large cloth bag, in which the fruits cannot be guessed by their shape with the naked eye. As they are so young, we will show the fruits that we put in the bag so that they have some reference to say the fruit. à In turns, a student will put his hand in the bag and will have to take only one fruit, they have to guess which fruit it is and then when they take it out of the bag, they will be able to check if they have succeeded. The game will get more complicated the more fruits we put in and if we add more food.

City

 

The first term I was working on this topic with my 6th graders.

We decided to create a small game in which each student created their favorite city building with a small model, so the class became a mini city.

Then to work on the directions, questions of places and vocabulary, each student prepared a small speech explaining their work and the characteristics of their establishment, then we made a roll play in which the students played the role of tourists lost in the city looking for the airport, hospital ...

It was a very fun activity that they enjoyed very much.

I leave you some pictures of the models.

Battleships

 One of the games that I love to use to practice questions with my students is the battleship. 

Here I let you an example and how to play it:

P1: Does your mum drink coffee? P2: No, she doesn’t. –> water!
P1: Do you like onions? P2: Yes, I do –> hit!
P1: Does your mum like onions? P2: Yes, she does –> hit and sunk!

ABC Countdown

 This is my favourite game: ABC Countdown. 

Can you thin of the Can you think of one word in English that begins with each letter of the alphabet? Animal, banana, computer... Can you continue until z? Then, we can talk about what's our favourite word in English?

Cluedo

 To work on the parts of the house with my 6th graders I wanted to use a game that is well known to everyone. "CLUEDO"

I have adapted it so that it is much easier to play and at the same time to have fun guessing the murderer, students work on the parts of the house. 

In addition we can change the parts of the house that we want to work on the different boards and thus have more variety, as well as the weapons of the assassins we can use vocabulary related to each part of the house.

They are delighted with this game.

I leave you an example of board that I have found.

House and family

 Last year I worked with my 2nd grade students on this vocabulary game about the family.

The students move the cards of the family members through the different spaces of the house and explain where each one is.

We also can work on this game by writing the sentences in their notebook.

For example: My mother is in the kitchen
