Christmas and Colors Unit for Elementary English Language Learners

 This resource is included in the Colors Unit for Elementary ELL. Find it in this link here:          https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Colors-Unit-for-Elementary-ELL-Starters-3629423

Use this resource to engage Students with Thematic Learning. It integrates visual (flashcards, puzzles, board games), auditory (read-and-color, listening activities), and kinesthetic (board games, coloring) elements to cater to diverse learning styles.

Give each student a gift flashcard. Name a sequence of four colors. The students with those flashcards stand in the same sequence: orange, pink, blue, black.

Repeat with more sequences.

Let’s do Role-Play: Set up a pretend market on the board. Students "buy" and "sell" gifts by asking for specific colors: I want the blue gift, please.

Have students match their crayons to the larger flashcards.

The set of small cards are useful for more activities:

Hide the gift flashcards around the room. Call out a gift color, and students search for the matching gift. You can hide the small card on the board, on a book or behind the door!

Teacher: Where is the red gift?

Students: on the book!

By the way, that’s a book that I made the originals in 2010!

Each student picks up a card and says their favorite color: My favorite color is green!

The small cards work for writing prompts.

The gift worksheets will encourage students to work at their own pace, reinforcing self-confidence.

Unscrambling letters helps students practice spelling and letter recognition. Then, they can color each gift.

Print the bingo gift worksheet. Students will color the gifts in any color they wish. Use the small cars to call out Bingo and students mark or cover the corresponding gifts on their cards. Save the bingo sheet to play at any other time since it is ready.

Fun way to practice listening and matching.

Puzzles capture students' attention and encourage active participation. Plan a Puzzle Race. Divide students into teams. Provide each team with a puzzle set. The first team to complete their puzzle wins.

Lay the puzzle pieces out. Call out a color, and students must find the phrase and complete the pocket chart.

Game board! Students say the colors as they land on them, improving pronunciation and confidence. As students land on a present, they must say the color out loud. For an extra challenge, they can make a sentence (e.g., “The present is red”).

Prepositions and the School Unit for Elementary ELL

 This resource is found at this link at the TPT store: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/School-Theme-for-Elementary-ESL-1707072

This resource uses a crayon and a crayon box. It aligns with the  school supplies, or classroom objects, making it a versatile tool for reinforcing learning throughout the school year. All to prepare a model lesson plan for your english class.

Introduce prepositions using the flashcards and writing the sentences on the board: The crayon is on the crayon box.

Use the opportunity to write questions on the board and have the students ask more questions for the class to answer: Where is the crayon?

Flashcards offer clear visual cues, which helps students grasp the meaning of prepositions more easily. Cut the word out of each flashcard and have the students match to the image.

Small cards give students flexibility to create a variety of sentences, encouraging creativity. They will write a text that you give a prompt or they show their creativity.

Students must carefully listen and follow instructions: Put the blue crayon on the crayon box. I suggest that you have the cutouts ready. I glued the crayon box onto a toilet paper roll.

Visual and kinesthetic learners can see and manipulate the crayons in various positions relative to the box, reinforcing spatial concepts through movement and observation. Students can also make their sentences for the classmates to recreate.

Teacher: The crayon is under the crayon box.

As students work with the resource, they’ll also reinforce color vocabulary, by printing the worksheets.

Rolling the die adds a game-like element to color the preposition images on the worksheet, motivating students to actively participate. The die and worksheet can be used for solo practice or in pairs.

More worksheets to complete the practice section of your lesson plan.

The matching mat allows students to link visual cues with written prepositions, reinforcing vocabulary.

Have the puzzle ready to give students a hands-on way to construct sentences, helping them understand prepositions.

Turkey Family for Thanksgiving Teaching -Elementary ELLs

 This resource is included in The Family Unit for Elementary ELLs. Link To the resource:   https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Family-Unit-for-Elementary-ELL-Starters-1804475

This Turkey Family resource is perfect for engaging elementary English language learners with family vocabulary. It introduces students to Thanksgiving themes, building cultural awareness. All to prepare your lesson plan for your english class.

The turkey family can be used to review the family-related words, helping students practice terms like “mother,” “father,” “brother,” and “sister” in a fun, memorable way using the printable flashcards.

Teachers can create interactive activities around the turkeys, like naming family members, describing them, or using simple sentences, boosting speaking confidence by creating small cards on the templates provided.

The Turkey Family worksheets in the resource offer a great way to support both vocabulary building and holiday-themed learning. There are color words and then bind together and create a book.

By engaging with written tasks, students build reading comprehension and writing skills, which are crucial for language development. There are: color by number, complete the family words, answer the yes/no questions.

Games provide a playful way for students to repeatedly use family-related vocabulary in context. As students play, they need to speak and listen to each other, promoting language production as they move along the board: It’s a blue feather. If the students say the correct word, that feather card is available for that player to take.

The goal is that players get as many feathers. They will color the feathers on their worksheet if they have the cards. They will continue playing until they get as many cards possible. The winner is the one with the most feathers to color.

They will complete their turkey on their worksheet, either mother, father, brother, sister or baby, just one. They will make a craft with their turkey member by adding the feathers and the person. Make a display in class.

Halloween and the School Unit for Elementary ELLs

 This resource is found at this link at the TPT store: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/School-Theme-for-Elementary-ESL-1707072

By incorporating Halloween activities, teachers provide ELLs with an opportunity to experience and understand a key aspect of the culture. Find it all to prepare a Lesson plan 3p.

Blend essential classroom language with the fun of Halloween using the school things flashcards. Students will associate common school supplies (e.g., pencil,) with the Halloween theme helping retain vocabulary through visual context. Always use pointers for asking questions.

The Halloween theme reinforces additional seasonal vocabulary, such as "vampire," while teaching necessary school-related terms using the small cards. Ask questions: What character is shown on the scissors?

Students: Vampire!

I made this pointer to read words. I bought this cutout at Dollar tree years ago, but grab the idea to make your own.

The worksheets with a Halloween theme add excitement to the lessons. Have the students complete the worksheets while learning school supplies vocabulary in a festive context.

Engaging ELLs in games around Halloween helps to maintain their interest and participation in language learning. This domino game involves all the school supplies words and images to match.

Halloween-themed school supplies games provide a dynamic way to teach vocabulary to English language learners (ELLs). Students love BINGO! Play this game by having the students color the school items in any of the four colors playing: green, orange, purple, black, and glue only 6 of them onto their board.

Use your calling cards to start the game: an orange book! The student that color the book orange can cross out the block. Keep in mind that you can play this game at any other time using the same board that they have created. It is useful for those final 5 or 10 minutes to wrap up a class.

Leaving for last this flap book printable. This is a creative writing activity. Students will color the Frankenstein on each flap and write a text.
