Fun Games for Days, Months for beginner Adult?

Posted by narel · September 30, 2010 · 1 replies

Hiya, am a new teacher and am starting my first one on one with an adult, topic : days of the week, months etc.. want to make it fun and would love any suggestions .
Have thought of cutting the days up and getting the student to put them in order, reading a script with days/,months and getting them to point when they hear the word, but does any one have any fun ideas ? 🙂

An interesting thing I did to help students to learn the days of the week was a song. The song is "Friday I'm in love" by The Cure. Everybody loved that song and were happy to be able to sing it. I just printed the lyrics for them and we listened it from youTube. Not only they've learned the days, but they still remember them after three weeks, without any practice.
