Lesson!

Thank you, Vikki, for your lesson! Could you show us another one, please!

Dominoes

Hi Eddie,
You can select the '8 cards per A4 sheet' to make dominoes. Have you seen the dominoes games to download and print in our Tools for teachers section? You'll find them here:

Best wishes,

Thanks!

Thanks so much! yes, even I have downloaded one of them. I will practice a lot with flashcard maker because I have not found how to divide each card. It is really great (image, name and phonetics) and students like flashcard.

Have an excellent week!

Flash cards

Thank you, for showing us a new and exciting lesson that we all can use in our class with our young learners.

Thank you Vikki, I will

Thank you Vikki, I will certainly use this lesson and now have several other ideas for future lessons. One point, could someone please tell me what Vikki says when she talks about the book and points. I can't quite catch the words. Could I also ask where the book came from and how it's used.

Thanks again

The Very Hungry Caterpillar

Vikki says ‘….but he was still hungry….’ as she reads the story and points to the book. The book is The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle.

For more ideas on how to use this book in class (as well as other picture books) you could read this article: http://www.teachingenglish.org.uk/language-assistant/primary-tips/creepy-crawlies

Flashcard

Thank you.

I use flashcards a lot with

I use flashcards a lot with my young learners and they love them! I usually present the vocabulary by showing them the flashcard, repeating the word in different tones (loud, whisper, singing) and we describe the picture (colour, size, shape,...). Then comes the best, as students love touching the flashcards, we play different games with them, like hide and seek, cathegorizing in groups (colour, shape, parts of different rooms, to use at school, in the playground, ...). Flashcards are great because we can use them to plan different activities for different learning style's learners.

Thank you for this video ,i

Thank you for this video, I can make use of it in my classroom with my students.
