Fruit and Vegetables Unit Game for English Language Learners

 I created a game inspired by a game on a book from this autor Shelley Vernon, named 176 English Language Games for Children. I found mine online years ago.

I have been adding a collection of units to my TPT store for Kindergarten Language Learners. This game is based on the 10^th  unit for the Fruit and Vegetable Unit.

LINK to the game resource: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Fruit-and-Vegetables-Unit-Game-for-English-Language-Learners-6407555

This is how it goes: Print one set of cards with the words and flashcards per group.                                       

 Make a list of posible sentences or phrases and write them down on a paper.

Divide your students into groups and give them a set of cards.

Call out the phrase : white onion.
 Students in each group will go through the cards and put the phrase together and show it to the teacher or to any assigned student who will be the teacher’s helper.

Use simple phrases with colors and numbers for the early beginners. Why not, size!

          

It is a good practice to go for more complicated phrases with your older students.

The cards will make into a variety of sentences.

Students can write down the sentences or phrases they made on their notebooks.

This game will be fun in a face to face classroom. For online teaching, sending the students the cards would be good and I guess that more games will come to your mind, but please write them down on the comments section to benefit other teachers.

Christmas Coloring Worksheets as a listening, speaking or writing activity

 It's Christmas and when we think of coloring pages we think of the little ones. I do have FREE worksheets  for the students. For the older students, it can be a writing practice as they color and write a short text for their page. 

Here is the LINK to the FREE resource:

 https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Christmas-Coloring-for-Kindergarten-EFL-3527578

For our English Language Learners of all ages can benefit of a listening activity as they color the worksheets.
Teacher: Find the bear! Color it brown.
Find the Christmas tree! Color it green.

Or do a show and tell. Students come up to the front and describe their worksheet: This is a bear. It has a Christmas hat. It is red.

This is what I did! I wrote the word for each item on the coloring page using a wax crayon.

Then, using markers I started coloring the pictures and the word would show up. Here is my example.

So, it is just a Spelling activity for the Season. If you do yours, please show me!

Thanksgiving Printable Book for ESL: Turkey on the Farm

 Adding a new Thanksgiving resource to all the other that are already here on the blog. Check them at the label section on the right column.

LINK to the resource:   https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Thanksgiving-Printable-Book-for-ESL-6213262

                                                             Print the pages of the book.

 Students can make individual books or group books. Students will color each page as they read the sentences.

There is a set of a turkey surrounded by several objects and pages describing each item. You an put them together.  I would make the students color the separate items first and then look them up in the turkey picture and color accordingly.

Another example:

       The pages are meant to review vocabulary from the farm unit that might have previously taught.

the last set of turkey and vocabulary pages.

                                       Put all the sets together and bind the pages of the book.

Prepare all the toilet paper roll puppets. You can also do craft sticks or flannel board cutouts for storytelling.

                                       You can also practice prepositions. 

Teacher: Put the turkey in front of the barn.

Teacher: What color is the barn ?

Students: It's read and white.

More examples for practicing prepositions.

Students can say positional sentences to other students to find the items and place them in the correct postion.

Student: The turkey is in front of the barn.

You can place the puppets in any position and ask questions.

Teacher: Where is the turkey'

Students: It is between the basket and the chicken.
