 Re: Help with 6 to 8 years old
I am in a similar position to you as I teach at an after school club in Austria (kids aged 8 to 10) where the children only speak english ie no written english and I find that this limits the activities available. I have only recently started doing this but from my experience so far the following were the most well received:
- balloon pop game - in teams if you answer question right you get to pop one of the other teams balloons (I used this to teach opposites)
- memory game. I my house there is a fridge , next person has to remember this and add one of their own
- throw the ball at the right picture on the blackboard
- pick clothes out of a bag and say "I am wearing...." Hilarious when boys picked out necklace etc.
If you have any tips on what has worked for you then I'd be interested to hear. |
