Christmas Activities for ESL

Krasner (1999) recognized the necessity for language learners to develop not only linguistic competence but also an awareness of the culturally-appropriate features of the language

Link to the files at my TeachersPayTeachers store:
 


I made a Coloring and a Writing book. Students read the incomplete sentence and looking at the picture write the missing word. Students can color the picture as you dictate.
Teacher: Look at the elf! His hat is yellow and green.


A foldable accordion book. Students trace each word to create the book. You can choose the vocabulary. Then trace the Elf hat onto red or green cardboard to assemble the book. 

Half card game. This a fun game that many students love. Cut all the cards in half. Have the students match each half to make a complete card on their desks as a group challenge.
As a speaking activity, hand in a half card to each student. They all stand up at your signal and walk around the classroom finding their other half and stand together. Shout stop! At any given moment. The winners are the students that got together correctly.


Labeling clothes and body (labeling). Have the students label the Christmas Characters cards. They come in color and black/white version.


More vocabulary practice with the picture and word matching cards.


A final review of Prepositions or Positional words.A set of small flashcards to review each preposition.
Teacher: Look at the reindeer! The reindeer is between the boy and the girl.Or the reindeer is between the elves.

A  Prepositions or Positional words game.The sentence association game which is fun.
There is a set of cutouts to glue onto a file folder.
Students can sort the cards.
A  Prepositions or Positional words book.Print and assemble the book or use the file on the tablets.

Halloween Activities for the ESL student

Another Halloween again! I prepared this resource with many things. Hope you like it. 


Let’s start with Halloween Flashcards!


 Picture Dictionary. Hand in the 3 pages for making the picture dictionary. It is a good idea to do this in groups. This is a cut and paste activity.

I love tracing cards. It is a spelling activity that can be done using the clear plastic sheet. Just as some native language students learn to trace words in Preschool some ESL learners benefits from tracing.

I made another set of tracing cards that can work as coloring cards. Practice coloring the body parts and/or the clothes.

I made a smaller version of the tracing cards to create an accordion book.
First, I glued one card onto another.
Then, I folded all the cards into an accordion.
I traced the cover onto cardboard to make the other part of the book. I glued the first page onto the cover and the last one onto the cardboard.
Just a worksheet to place all the words in ABC order.

Spelling Bingo is always a fun game to play. Use the small cards or the Big Flashcards to call the Bingo words. Students just write a playing word in each part of the spinner. They have to cross out the word that is being called if they have it.

If Spelling Bingo is not enough. Try Spelling Scrabble. I added the Scrabble letters. I printed them onto Halloween colored paper, I chose orange and purple. I did my example using the puppets, you can use any of the small cards in the resource.

I also made worksheets with all the Halloween Characters without the face parts and for the students to color the clothes items.
Teacher: This is Dracula. He has green eyes, a small nose and funny mouth
Students draw as indicated.
You can also dictate how he is dressed or have them color the clothes and then describe his clothes.
Students: Dracula is wearing a black and red cape, gray pants and brown shoes.

I made all the characters into puppets using toilet paper rolls. Here are just a few and made a haunted house, it comes in two pages which you will have to glue to make a big one. I printed mine onto orange cardboard and colored the door, the windows and roof to review parts of the house.
Teacher: What color is the door?
Students: It’s brown!
Use the puppets to review the words.
Teacher: Who is he?
Students: He is the Mummy!
Teacher: Who is she?
Students: She is the Witch!

I also used the puppets to do prepositions practice.
Teacher: Where is the Devil?
Students: She is in front of the Haunted House!
 Teacher: Where is Frankenstein?
Students: He is behind the Haunted House!
Teacher: Where is the Witch?

Students: She is in the Haunted House!

Or have the students write about where the characters are.

A game board for those minutes of free play!

I taped an opened clip behind each game piece to make it stand as a marker.

Clothes that Family Members Wear for ESL learners


Place several of the family members flashcards on the board and ask questions.
Teacher: What is the cousin wearing?
Students: He’s wearing a cap, a t-shirt, shorts and shoes.
Teacher: What color is his cap?
Students: It’s blue and green.

Make a grid on the board and play GUESS WHO ? with the class. 
Students: Is he or she wearing pants?
Teacher: YES!
Students: Are the pants yellow?
Teacher: NO!
Students: Are the pants green?
Teacher: YES!
Students: Is it B2, the grandpa?
Teacher: YES! 

More activities with the flashcards for speaking purpose.
Teacher: Who are wearing a dress?
Students: Mother! Cousin! Sister! Aunt!
Teacher: Who is wearing shorts?
Students: Brother!

I made some labels to use with the flashcards. I made labels for the body parts and the clothing.

Clothes and family Bingo game. I don’t know how I came up with doing a Bingo game involving clothes and family. But it looks good.

There are more than 40 worksheets to give one to each student.

Have them label the family member and each clothing item. They can also color only the clothes. I think gluing the worksheet on the notebook will lead to more activities.

Then, grab your Bingo calling cards. The student that crosses out all the clothing items is the winner.
Take a look!

Since the worksheet is on the notebook, students can write a short text.
