Reading computers

Hello everyone!

Today we're going to practice a reading activity!

As our students are digital natives, I've looked for a text about computers, for them to know more about this tool they use everyday almost everytime.

You can find the text in the following link:

https://learnenglishkids.britishcouncil.org/read-write/reading-practice/level-3-reading/computers

To start the activity we can ask the students some questions about the creation of computers to see their knowledge, like: when they were created, by who, where, how they were at the beginning... we can also ask them about mobile phones, Internet...

Later, we will read the text and check doubts together. Also, we will explain them some vocabulary that we find interesting for them to know, such as "store" or "program". We can also look for pictures or further information about the things that are mentioned in the text, so they can find the activity more interesting.

Finally, I have prepared a Kahoot with some questions about the text to see if the students understood it correctly. You can access through this link and to play it you just need to have an account created:

https://create.kahoot.it/share/computers-text/d0250415-1bdb-4fea-8133-fe7a158d06a2

Using Kahoot, when the students finish we will be able to see their answers and the percentage they had correct.

I hope you like this activity, tell me in the comments if you find it interesting.

See you soon!

Farm listening

Hello everyone! Today we're going to the farm! Here you are a listening activity using the following audio that you can find in the link: https://www.learning-english-online.net/language-course/unit-8-at-the-animal-farm/reading-and-listening-story/ It is about a family which visits the farm and the different animals and activities they find there. In the link, you can also find the script. The activity I did is the following one: First of all, we warm-up and engage the students doing a brainstorming of the animals they know, using a padlet in a collaborative way, as the one you can see here: https://padlet.com/carolinafernandez21214/animals-uht55pbyr6jnm2dc Next step will be listening to the audio and discovering what happens with this family. Later on, we will check the understanding of the students and also, we will give them the following worksheets I created with Canva: Once the students have listened to the audio twice, they will be able to answer the questions and together,...

Delicious food writing

Hello everyone and welcome to my restaurant! As you already know I'm a big fan of Canva and here I am again one of my creations. The aim of this worksheet is to practice writing about food with primary 1 or 2 students. First of all it is necessary that the students have learnt some vocabulary about food so, later, we can give them this worksheet to practice it. They have to write some food they love, like and don't like and then, choose three of them and draw a picture in each of the boxes given. I've used it with my students and they really enjoyed doing the activity. You can ask them also, when they finish, to show it to the rest of the classmates to make it more motivating and to practice also the speaking skill. I hope you like it and find it useful, again, if you want to have access to the resource, contact me in the form and I'll send it as soon as possible. Let me know in the comments your opinion about it. See you soon!
