Face unit Printable book for Elementary ELL

This resource is included in the face unit for Elementary English Language Learners-Starters.Click here: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Face-Unit-for-Elementary-English-Language-Learners-10106986

A printable book is a good way to wrap up the unit and the students will show all that they have learned. It reinforces the description of facial features.They will use their creativity to put together their book. It is a way to do a little self-assessment.

Print the templates of the book. It can also be done in a group.

Students will cut all the strips of the book and the texts that can be or not glued next to each picture. They can also provide their own texts. The pictures make it easier for them to organize their thoughts and sentences to write. Texts can be long or short depending on their fluency.

This is intended to be a matching book. To assemble, cut the strips of the book along the center dotted lines and add a book ring or yarn. Students can cut and add the text or write their own text to match each picture of the face.

The coloring part of the book can be on the student own inspiration. Bookmaking is always a new activity for the students.It's a moment for students to express thier own opinion.

The matching book is ready to read!!! Send the book home and have the students read with their parents.

Finally, take a look!

Face unit Games for Elementary ELL

Games promote effective communication between peers by playing with meaningful and engaging materials.

This is a 5-minute gap-filler for your lesson plan to develop linguistic competence. It is a Listening wrap up activity Let’s call it Hair Dictation. Hand in a copy of the people cards for the students to color as you dictate to them.

Teacher: Look at Anna, she has short curly red hair. (Continue with the other people, students can also help out saying how people look for the classmates to color)

Print a number template that can be used over and over again. Students will cut the people that they just colored. Describe which person will be in which number.

Teacher: Number 6 is a person with short straight brown hair.

Students will complete placing each person on each number.

Here is a video to clear it up:

This activity can be used to supplement the content of your course book. It is focused on the reinforcement of the vocabulary to describe eye and hair. Print the descriptive sentences cards for a group of students and a worksheet for each student. Have them prepare specific detail sentences to write on the worksheets and draw on the person template. Let your students be creative and then share their work with peers. Stuents will develop strog grammar skills.

reinforcement of the vocabulary to describe eye and hair

This game is wonderful to see if your students are understanding the adjectives to write the sentences.

Take a look at the video on how to use the game:

Playing constitutes the heart of children’s learning, and it prepares them for life.

Playing with cards is also considered a teaching tool to improve concentration and develop fluency. These can be used as a memory game to match a facial feature to a word or a matching game to play on a table or the floor.

I used this font from Creativa Fabrica. Here is the link. I am an affliate.

A board game to review the new vocabulary in a fun way to increase socialization at the same time. Print one template for every 3 or 4 students. I made the markers by opening a clip and adding a sticker. There are 4 sets of colored cards. When a student lands on a colored space, he/she grabs that colored card and answers that question in order to move. For example. I landed on a blue space, I grab a blue card and read the question: What color is his hair? I answer: blond.

Games promote a sense of achievement.

Writing with these colorful letters. Use the pictures from the game below as a guide for writing the words. Children will work alone doing this to gain self-develpment.

Or use a worksheet as a guide on how to write the words,

Use this printable as a file folder game. Students will match the phrase to the picture.

You can also do it as a cup game. Check the blog post where I have a similar game for Kindergarten. I glued the label to plastic cups and started the matching activity in a different fun way.

Here is the video:

Wrap it up with a Pocket Chart Activity. Buy or make this versatile tool to enhance the learning experience of the new language as students make sentences interacting with their peers. Students will make sentence to review the adjective word order.

I loved these characters so much that I want to do more with them. I cut all the sentences and the images, then I added Velcro con the images. I glued the sentences onto cardboard and the other piece of the matching Velcro. Well, students have to attach the image to each sentence.

Face unit Small Cards for Elementary ELL

Lovely comments on the resource.

You can print the face unit small cards onto cardboard to play games and activities. Use them to consolidate new vocabulary. Students will be motivated to engage in the language to say hair and eye color.

Use the face unit cards for Sorting activities. Learners will sort the cards into categories/group. Have them explain their reasoning, for example, this sorting is by hair color.
