The 3 P's Procedure for teaching Kindergarten EFL

 The very common 3P's procedure can be used to plan your lessons for teaching Kindergarten English Language Learners.

3 P's Procedure for teaching Kindergarten EFL

This is the procedure that I learned when I took my TEFL course in ILAC,Canada. I still use this procedure for lesson planning and for the resources that I create are based on this procedure which has been successful for my students.

      

The 3Ps mean: Presentation, Practice and Production. Three easy words to remember.

Presentation is introducing the new vocabulary or grammar structure.

 Use flashcards,

small cards,
 

or cutouts to present all the new to your students. 
Be creative and varied as to what to use with your students. If I used the flashcards the last class, I would choose the small cards or the cutouts for the next class.

Practice is done with the workbooks or worksheets. This is drilling and repetition part that for young students you should have fun worksheets to do the job.


Production is where students show off what they learned and games are the easiest way to put all their knowledge to use. We never have enough games for the youngest students. They love games. I usually have a variety of common, simple and easy games to play.                                           

I am sure that many teachers use this teaching procedure. If not, here are some basics on this topic to get you started.

Birthday Unit Resources for Elementary ELL

  LINK to the Birthday unit resource that can be used with first graders: 
1st grade
There is more for the Birthday unit here:

Birthday Flashcards. Flashcards are still effective tools for the class. Plan motivating games with the theme for independent learning or for groups.
Place the flashcards on the board. Point to the cake.
Teacher: Cake. It’s a cake.

Birthday has Flashcards. A set of boys and girls going to a party with a gift and party hat or balloons. Place them on the board and write any set of numbers that you want to review. I choose from the 20’s to the 40.Ask as many questions as you can.
Teacher: What does number 21 have?
Students: He has a hat.
Teacher: What color is the hat?
Students: It is red, purple and yellow

Birthday Vocabulary Spelling.
Use the cupcake letter tiles to build the theme´s vocabulary words and review the ones from previous units. Each student of group of students can have a set of letters.
·       Children can line up the tiles in alphabetical order. Make it a contest.
·       Place the flashcards in a visible place and have students build the words.
·       Have children build new words in an allotted time. See which group has built the more correct words.

Birthday Cupcake small book.
Creating their own books will develop a positive attitude towards reading. In the doing, it will involve that children will be motivated as they will own a book that they will be able to read at home. It will enhance their narrative skill by telling the story to their parents.

Birthday cutouts for introducing prepositions.
Print and cutout the birthday cutouts to introduce prepositions. Place the table cutout in the middle of the board.
Teacher: What is this?
Students: It’s a cupcake.
Teacher: Where is the cupcake?
Students: It’s on the table.
Continue asking questions using all the prepositions.
Birthday cake and Numbers tracing cards.
For the lower elementary students, these tracing cards are good for reviewing.

 Birthday Worksheets.
Worksheet 1. Students read and color the balloons. The worksheet can be turned into a notebook activity. Have the students glue the sentence next to each balloon.
Worksheet 2. Students read and color the boys and girls. Then they have to cut out each person and glue them next to the correct paragraph on their notebook.
Worksheet 3. I couldn’t help it when I saw these Party Animals clip art and created this worksheet that can be done in several steps or in different ways.
First, have the students color the animals as you dictate them to practice listening. It also helps to keep the pace as students have to color on the time that you give them such as a minute for each animal.  Teacher: Color the giraffe orange!
There is the cake that students color as in the paragraph that you hand in. It can be done as a diorama. Students read the paragraph and place the animals where it corresponds. I placed an opened clip behind each item. Students can take turns reading each sentence and another student has to place the animal.
It can also be done as a poster . I glued everything as in the paragraph.
or a notebook activity.

Birthday Pocket Charts.5 words and colors to make pocket charts of use them on the desk to make phrases.

Birthday Unit Worksheets- part 3

Almost done with the birthday unit. I had some worksheets from previous years and made extra ones. I added them them to the same product from the previous blog post about the Birthday Unit Vocabulary. 
Worksheet 1. A simple worksheet to review a basic grammar point. Then, students cut the pictures and sentence and write more sentences on their notebooks.

Worksheet 2. This is a reading and coloring the picture worksheet.
I used a finger eye to read. I don’t remember where I got them. Watch the video.
Worksheet 3. Instead of color by number , it is a color by word. After the worksheet is done the children cut it up and have the student next to him/her glue the puzzle worksheet on the notebook.

Worksheet 4. This worksheet is useful for lower level students.
When the students have to do a matching word to picture I ask them to use a different color for each word.

For the numbered cupcakes, dictate  the color for each one.

Teacher:  Cupcake number one is red.

Worksheet 5. Dictate the color of each cake. When you do this it helps with listening.

Teacher:  Cake number one is purple.

Have the students color the number as you dictate.

Teacher:  Number one is blue.

Students cut and paste the numbers where they belong.

Once the worksheet is completed, make a mobile by hanging the cakes in the correct number sequence.
Worksheet 6. After the worksheet is colored, students can cut all the cakes and write a sentence describing each one on their notebooks.
Worksheet 7. Decorating a cupcake should be fun! Have the students add anything they want such as real sprinkles to decorate their personal cupcake.
Worksheet 8. I made two versions for this worksheet. It is an already colored worksheet that you can place into a clear plastic sheet and students can write using a dry erase marker.
                                   The other version is a normal worksheet.
Worksheet 9. Another read and color worksheet. Thinking that the cake can be turned into a puppet for reading.
scuola primaria
Worksheet 10 and 11. I included easier to complete worksheets for the lower level students that you might have.




Worksheet 12. For more advanced students this worksheet is great. After the worksheet is done, cut it all and make a match game.

Worksheet 13. After the students complete the worksheets do a little listening as you dictate the colors of all the vocabulary words. 
Teacher: Color the lemonade yellow.
Have the students cut the sentences and pictures and glue on their notebooks as they match them.
Worksheet 14. The questionnaire. Have the students walk around asking questions to their classmates and completing the questionnaire. Students can write the results on their notebooks.

There will be another blog post with  more resources for the Birthday unit. Follow me!!
