Find the Hidden Animal - 3 views

  •  
    This game is designed for low intermediate EFL learners. The game is very interesting one, becuase the player is motivated to guess the hidden animal until it appears in full picture (there are three choices for each hidden animal and when the player chooses one of them, the computer either makes green or red line in the word and also pronounces that word). So, this game can also help learners gain right pronunciation skills. I used this game with my neighbour (11-year-old boy) and he was interested in guessing the pictures and tried to pronounce the word after the computer prounced them. I would suggest ESL teachers to use it because it enhanced my neighbour's vocabulary and improves his pronunciation. skills.

Animals :) :) - 2 views

  •  
    This is a nice game for elementary level students through which they can learn the names of animals! The best thing about this game is that it has four sections: 1-shows the animal and pronounces the name along wit providing the written variant 2- it checks spelling VS. pronunciation 3-it checks pronunciation VS. picture 4- it checks spelling VS. picture. I tried it with elementary level students (two) and it was quite effective!!!!

    Thanks Gayane for this game. I tried this game with my cousin who is 5 years old and only knows 10 letters of the English alphabet. We played this game together and he pretty liked it. He only knew the name of some of the animals but he doesnt recognise the written form of letters. therfore, I skipped the writing parts. I perticularly liked the part which he should listen to the names and then point me the animal to put the name under it. By the way, I used this game just to entertain him not to teach him. It think this approach helped him to just enjoy it as a game not a lesson. Thanks again.

Essay Map - 2 views

  •  
    Using this site, you can Improve your students compositions dramatically, teaching them how to plan their ideas first. This programme will help them create and print a map with the ideas they need. I tried this with a couple of my private students who are studying for iBT TOFEL examination. They stated that using this map they could write a sentence or a paragraph for every idea and this way they had a coherent essay, well organized and much better than the usual messy stuff they would produce formerly.

    Adeh this is a very nice way to involve students in essay writing. I tried it myself and I found it very useful. I am going to use this with my own students. It is a real sample for academic essay writing and also we can print our writing. Thank you for this format.

Keyboarding Games - Typing Challenge | Learning Games For Kids - 4 views

  •  
    Education is part of life. It should be fun and challenging... not boring. Children should learn while they are playing. It is impossible to imagine any educational or professional experience without using typing. This skill can be very successfully learnt if it is taught when children are pretty little. I tried this activity with my little son, niece and nephew they find it interesting to try typing the words correctly and quickly. Frequently they failed but tried again and again to insure they could make it.

    The game will help the learners to remember the locations in the world more easily. The more they play the faster they can drag each country map to the correct location in the Earth. My neighbour' s 14 and 15 year-old children found the game quite entertaining and wanted to try it again to do it faster.

Irregular Verbs - 3 views

  •  
    This game can be played alone or with another player. It reminds the "Jeopardy" board with points, whereby the player must choose from and the questions are more challenging when the points are higher. The question appears right away and when the answer is correct, the player gains points and the next player chooses a category. If it is incorrect, the correct verb is given. The point board is shown every time you choose a category. Thought there is no flash, my students enjoyed it and thought it was a good way to review irregular verbs.

    A very easy and interesting way to teach and learn phonics for early readers. Attractive images and sounds make the kids have fun with phonics and learn them easily. The game also increases kids' concentration while trying to find hidden words with the same middle sound.

    This is an Audio concentration game or memory game for elementary level students. The game practices the names of family members. The player needs to click on each card, try to remember the word and find another card with the same word to pair them. The game trains concentration skills, at the same time helps students learn the words through repetition.

    In this activity everything seems to be real! I was taken away by it and decided to try it on my cousin. He enjoyed it very much! He is a boxer and this activity was so real for him: he was in a ring but this time trying to answer different questions in order to get through the rounds and win.

Boowa and Kwala travel in search for Kwala's family - 1 views

  •  
    Kids can listen to and read a story in funny settings (and also through listening to songs). The story is about how Boowa helps his new friend Kwala find her family.This trick can be used for teaching kids travelling by developing their reading and listening skills. The story consists of 13 chapters, so it's better to teach them during a couple of classes.

Paint it ! Rainbow - 3 views

  •  
    * This painting game is good to teach or/and revise vocabulary as well as to practice listening and reading skills. I have practiced it with my 5 year old son. Though he can not read, with this activity he practiced listening, repeated known words and assimilated new vocabulary. And he enjoyed it very much! I think that other 5 -7 year old kids also will like it.

    This game can be played on line or again with the use of handouts. In case if you don't want to use it online, then the best option is to prepare cards with the word and the articles below, as in the online version. And have the students answer every time you show one card. You can choose one students to answer or make it a competition on "first answered gets a star" This can be engaging and motivating.

Much, many - 1 views

    This is an online game you can use if you use technologies in the class. Otherwise, you might print them out and provide handouts to your students. This game can be played in pairs or individually. Or you may want to divide your students into two groups. Provide with two boards or flipcharts and have two groups work separately within a certain time limitation to complete the assignment. The group that finishes first wins and gets a price, star, etc.

English grammar for ESL kids: am, are, is (1) - 2 views

  •  
    Mini grammar lessons for kids learning English: am, are, is - positive form. I tried this activity with one of my students during a private class. After many times of explanations of "to be" verb, I tried this game with him and found it very helpful. This game both teaches and gives practice for the target structure. I taught positive, negative and interrogative forms of verb "to be" with this game, and my student liked it, even playing it at home.
