Emotions adjectives Flashcards to describe people

 This resource can be found here: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Emotions-Unit-for-Elementary-EFL-2023631

Emotions are the feelings we have inside. It is important that English students learn to use these expressions.

Students can see a clear picture of the emotion on the flashcard and connect it with the word. They also allow for interactive activities such as matching, role-playing, games, and question-and-answer practice, which helps children remember the vocabulary and use it in real situations.

This activity helps students connect the visual image, body language, and spoken sentence. Hold an emotion flashcard and ask: How does he feel?

Student: (Miming) He is worried.

Shows more cards for the students to act it out.

Ask more questions to check comprehension and use of the new language. Students can also be the ones to ask the questions: Is she shy?

Student: Yes, she is.

Ask the students for any emotion: Who is sad? Any student that has the emotion will raise the hand and say: I am sad.

Activity: How Are You Today?

Ask a student to pick any emotion flashcard. Then ask, “How are you today?”
The student holds the card and answer, “I am confused.”

This activity gives students practice in first-person sentences

take a look!

Activity: Match the Word and Picture

Cut the word off each flashcard. Place the picture cards on one side of the board and the word cards on the other.

Ask students to come to the board and match each picture card with the correct word card.

This activity helps students connect written words with visual images,

Activity: Or Questions

Family member’s name, face and emotions for ESL

This is the second part of the family unit resource. All will be one product. LINK: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Family-Flashcards-worksheets-and-more-for-Elementary-ESL-students-4841832

It is available in this other store:

https://www.bilingualmarketplace.com/products/family-flashcards-worksheets-and-more-for-elementary-esl-students?variant=31252696793226

Watch the video of the complete resource:

Family members have a name.Use the possessive adjectives to introduce them.

Teacher: Who is this?

Students: Mother!

Teacher: What’s the mother’s name?

Students: Patricia. Her name is Patricia.

Continue with all the family members.

Family members have facial features. 

Use the flashcards to describe the parts of the face.

Teacher: Who is this?

Students: Mother!

Teacher: Look at the mother! She has curly black hair. She has black eyes.

                      

Insert each flashcard into a clear plastic sheet and using dry erase markers have the students label the facial features.

Students will understand how to use adjectives to express emotions.

I made a set of worksheets that can be done in a group to color in the facial features and the emotions. Each student can do one family member and then present to the class.

Or, they can exchange with other students in the group and read. The teacher can start a question and answer session.

Teacher: Who is this?

Students: The aunt!

Teacher: What’s her name?

Students: Her name is Lucy.

Teacher: Does she have brown hair?

Students: Yes, she does!

Teacher: Does she have blue eyes?

Students: No, she doesn’t. She has green eyes.

Teacher: Is she happy or sad?

Students: She is happy!

I also added a smaller set just in case you needed it.

After the little faces are done, you can sort the family members by hair color.

                                          

                                     Or sort by eye color.

Family Unit Pocket charts can be used for reading purpose and have them work in pairs to complete the reading task.Use these to ask yes/no questions: Is this Father?

If you do not have a pocket chart, try making the sentences on the desk or a mat.

Make it fun to read using a pointer. I had this old one from the Dollar Tree store.

I found these dry erase cutouts and use it for writing the sentences in the pocket charts.

                       

You can make your own sentences for the pocket charts. I used these strips that I had from the Dollar Store.

Or cut the words and have the students make the sentences.

To end this part of the Family Unit I made a game board.

The golf balls are the markers for each student, I placed a clip behind each ball. The cards are light green (female) or dark green (male) depending if landing on the dark or green part of the game board. Students move along the board as they answer the questions correctly.

Playing a game in class is an authentic taks that involve peer interaction. It is as easy as ordering alphabetically. I made craft stick puppets  with the sea animals pictures and then ordered them alpahabetically.

Place all the flashcards face down on the desk. Have a leader come to the front and grab a card and read it to the class. Students have to write the animal they hear. After the students have written the word the leader shows the flashcards and the class corrects any spelling mistake.

Use the Point finger to review this and that.

Teacher: This is an orca and that is a prawn.

Do the same by placing several flashcards of the same animal and practice These and Those.

Place more flashcards around the room and have the students say sentences using their own finger.

Numbers. Write the Numbers 10 to 100 in random order under each flashcard. Play!

Students can play with the small cards. Separate the printable into cards and select the ones that you are working on. Divide the class into pairs. Hand in at least 8 cards to each group. Have Student A write on piece of paper the name of a Sea Animal. Student B has to guess which is that animal.

Feelings Sea animals Flashcards. I wanted to add some flashcards regarding feelings to recycle the vocabulary words.

Place all the flashcards on the board. Have students come up with a fly swatter and swat the correct flashcard. Practice listening skills as you say the sentence.

Or introduce more positional words such as left and right.

Practice more positional words with this worksheet. Have the students glue their Sea Animals in any way that they want and then have them write sentences to show to the rest of the class.

As a listening activity, dictate how to  glue the Sea Animals.

And extra practice is always necessary. Hand in all the worksheets and have them work in groups completing the Sea Animals body parts. Have them research the unknown words.

Sea animals habitat.  Sea or Ocean animals live in the same place or in some other. Place a flashcard of the habitat and ask the students which animals they think live in that particular habitat to create a mind map. I have ocean, sea, beach, river and lake. Ask the students to draw the habitat and the animals that live there. They can investigate and make their own diorama or picture. Have them do a show and tell to the class.

Sea Animals also eat.Create another mind map with the flashcards on the board.

 Make a Sea Life Table. Have the students make a similar table as the one you are making on the board. Ask them questions. Students usually know details of Sea Animals, if not have them investigate before completing the table.

File folder game. I made them the size of a circle puncher.

Snapshots templates where children can draw the animals and write a sentence for each one.
