Smile EFL one-to-one young learner ideas

Hi,

I teach English as an additional language to young learners (all primary) in the UK. Some have no English whatsoever and I'm struggling to come up with fun activities to get them to start speaking/learning English.

My classes are one-to-one and I have limited resources (what I can provide myself) and am often working in a corridor or shared working space (eg a library) and so cannot really do 'noisy' activities like songs, etc. A course book isn't a great idea either because often the children are of different levels (although my main concern at the moment is the ones with zero English).

Any tips on how to construct a whole lesson and what kinds of resources to use and where from?

Thanks in advance!
