Family Flashcards and Worksheets for ESL students

I am working on the family unit resource. Here is the link to this material:   https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Family-Flashcards-worksheets-and-more-for-Elementary-ESL-students-4841832
                                 
                             Watch the video of the complete resource:

Flashcards are great for introducing vocabulary. There are many things that you can use them. I made three sets of families. Two in English and one in Spanish. There are lots of dual language teachers that need resources and let’s see if these are helpful.

Grids are useful for students to focus on the new family vocabulary. Do it on the board by drawing a grid and placing the family members in random order.
Teacher: Who is in B2?
Students: Father!
Teacher: C3!
Students: aunt!
Point to the flashcards and ask Yes/No questions.
Teacher: Is this the brother?
Students: No, it isn’t!
Teacher: Is this the cousin!
Students: Yes, she is.

Show the students the flashcards upside down and have them identify the family member.

Sort the family members into male or female or boys and girls.

Worksheet 1. First, dictate a color to each family member box.
Teacher: Number 1 is pink.
Teacher: Who is in Number 1?
Students: The cousin!
Then, students complete the sentences.

I see that many teachers love using the notebooks for doing more thing beyond the worksheet. I would cut out each family member and then do a writing practice.
                                         
                                              Worksheet 2.

Writing cards. There are times when we have students that are not quite writing in their own language and a lot less in a new one. Tracing makes it easy for them to get related to the new vocabulary words.

More writing opportunities. Magnetic letters are fun and easy to use. I added a bigger size cards for the family members. Have the students write each word by looking at the writing sheet.

I found this idea and gave it a try. I buy lots of duct tape for many things, but I never thought of using it for writing purpose. I placed a strip of duct tape on top of a page of a notebook. Students can write the words as many times they want and erase it easily. Remember to use a dry erase marker.

Far are the days where the worksheets were put into a folder. I suggest dictating a color for each family word. Cut all the words and pictures from the worksheet and have them glue each picture and word on the notebook.
         
                 The worksheet can be used to play a matching game.
