Teaching numbers 1 to 20 is a key foundational skill for early learners. Using this robot-themed resource makes this learning process more interactive.

Each robot flashcard features a robot with a set number of dots on its body. This helps children: Connect numerals with quantities visually and develop one-to-one correspondence skills.

Kinesthetic learners can jump or hop next to the flashcard with the number you say. Perfect movement-based game.

 Students will connect numerals with quantities visually by writing the number with a dry erase marker.

Auditory learners can practice counting out loud and matching number words. Then, place any numbers cutouts to match the dots on each robot.

Counting in sequence. Line Up the Numbers small cards. Learners will shuffle the cards and working in pairs line them up in the correct order (1 to 20). But, previously cut up the printable template.

Students can use the small cards on their notebooks as they write the numeral and the word. This is a practice for the adjectives of quantities.

A Worksheet for Basic math vocabulary development. Students write the number word.

Matching numerals to number words worksheet.

The worksheet set supports meaningful learning in the classroom. Students can see the number, count visual objects (robot dots/buttons), then write the numeral and/or number word.

 Learners will cut the number words and glue onto each robot. This multi-sensory approach helps cement number understanding.

Encourage independent work habits by using this worksheet completing the  number word sequence.

Each student receives a blank grid-style BINGO worksheet with 4 boards. Instead of using pre-filled numbers, they write in the numbers 1 to 20 in random order on each one. The included small robot cards double as your bingo calling cards.

Board game. After landing on a number, the student finds and colors or covers the same number on their number mat or worksheet.

Numbers mats. There are 3 of them. Provide students with number cards from one mat (e.g., 15) and have them place them on the corresponding robot with the fifteen dots and the number words from the third mat (e.g., fifteen).

Teaching prepositions to your learners is crucial for constructing basic sentences. Students will learn to describe locations between the robot and a box.

Show a flashcard with a preposition (in, on, under, behind, in front of, next to, between) and pronounce it clearly. Have the students repeat after you as you show the relation between the robot and the box. All the images are relatable to the unit. Show a flashcard and ask students to identify the preposition. Encourage them to make sentences using the illustrated scene after you model one: The robot is in front of the box.

Reinforce with the Robot Prepositions Worksheets: have the students learn the correct use of prepositions for writing grammatically correct sentences.

Print several dice and have them ready for the stduents to color the word and robot according to the picture that shows up.

This is a matching worksheet that provides a list of sentences with all the prepositions and a set of robot pictures. Students will have to draw a line from each sentence to the correct robot.

Find Fill-in-the-Blanks with a preposition worksheet. There is also a review of the parts of the face worksheet.

Play a memory game where students find the matching pairs.

Use the cutouts to prepare this fun activity to help improve listening and speaking. Plan your Interactive Demonstration by gluing the colored cutouts to a box or any other item and a robot to a craft stick. Students should do the same with their cutouts after coloring them.  Ask the students to describe the position of the objects using the prepositions: The robot is in the box.

Use the board games as a review of the new vocabulary of the unit. It is a fun repetition of the words. The markers are also included with each board game. So, just grab the dice. Each space has a color. Players have to move along the path. When they land on a space, they have to say the name of that color and show an item in that color.

Create a motivated and positive classroom atmosphere, where students know that there will be an enjoyable learning game to wrap up the class. Players will describe the colors of the space they landed on besides the number: It’s an orange twelve.

Games help with memory skills that are crucial for English language retention. That’s another reason for printing and having the games ready to play. The objective of the game is to navigate through the various spaces on the game board, learning and practicing vocabulary related to different facial features.

Board games are a very informal way of assessing your student’s language proficiency in communicating. Are they using the language enough? Are they struggling to move along the board?

Players will navigate through the various spaces on the game board, answering questions related to family members with the cards in the game, light or dark green.

Add a twist to the pet unit board game, but it works with any other theme. Players have to describe the pet they landed on in order to take that pet into their pet shop.

Students can do more than just identifying the word but saying a phrase or complete sentence in order to get the food card. The more food cards a player has, he/she is the winner.

Players move their game pieces around the Toyland game board, by completing challenges such as miming how to play with the toys they land on.

It will foster critical thinking skills where the students will compare, contrast and draw conclusions about the results.

It will provide an engaging learning experience. It is an interactive activity. Students will manipulate the data and interpret the results.

Show the visual representation of the results on the board.

Adapt the graph to the different students that you have in class.

The resource is available here:    https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Graphing-Worksheets-for-Elementary-English-Language-Learners-11309998

Check these ideas:

The favorite toy worksheet can lead to a speaking activity. They will draw their favorite toy and write a short text. When all the worksheets are done, have the children walk around and find another student or group of students with the same favorite toy. Stand together. Then, graph the results.

Teacher: How many trains are the favorite?
Students: two!

Graphing the favorite food. Do this one as a simple survey by placing the options on the board, using the flashcards: pizza, hamburger, chicken, fries, hot dog, salad. Create a bar graph on the board as they will come with their worksheet and place it under their option bar. Tally the results.

Here is another example with the pet unit to make a bar graph on the board, to add variety have the students write sentences about the favorite pet winner, such as: The favorite pet is the dog. I like dogs.

There is a worksheet to do a pet ownership graph. Students will draw the pet they have at home.  Grap showing the number of students who have dogs, cats, etc. And students with no pets at home.

The favorite room of the house can be graphed, but add the variant of the color. Tell your students to color the room of their choice. You will count the favorite room and the color as well.

Use the number of rooms of the house worksheet to graph. Discuss with your students that homes have different quantities of rooms. Graph by writing the numbers 1 to 5 for bedrooms basically which will vary in the results

Make a list of the school objects for the favorite items. They have to choose from the list and draw on the worksheet. Do the graph as survey. Each student will stand up with the worksheet and say: My favorite worksheets is the pencil.

Create a tally chart to record the number of votes for each school subject.

Give a twist to the graph for the favorite color. Place colored balloons at several parts of the classroom. After the students finish their favorite color worksheets. Have them find the balloon of their favorite color and stand right there. Tally the results.

I hope you include any of these graph ideas into your lesson plan. All the worksheets are included in each unit resource. All of them are in the BUNDLE:https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Elementary-English-Language-learners-teaching-Units-Starters-BUNDLE-11215540
