Elementary: Find the Synonym - 7 views

  •  
    Knowing synonyms is important for L2 language learners in order not to repeat the same words in writing or in speaking. Although it is designed for the elementary level, I advise this activity for intermediate level because I experimented with children in elementary level I saw that the words are a little bit more sophisticated.

    This memory game helps students to learn the vocabulary concerning Family members and provides correct pronunciation which is very important for them to learn.It develops students' memory and listening comprehension simultaneously. I tried this game with my 10 years old neighbour and he enjoyed it very much.

    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.

Food Game - 8 views

  •  
    A game to practice food vocabulary (fruit, vegetables, drinks, meat, desserts...). Students should find foods indicated by chief's list on the side by click on them in a kitchen. I piloted this game with a 12 years-old neighbor of mine, who studies English at elementary level. He was pretty much engaged in the game. Though the food list at side is restricted, foods in the kitchen are not. This makes students to look around to find the food indicated rather than simply choose from a limited set of choices. As there are other food items as well, it also provides an opportunity to teach new food vocab. When the list is done for the 1st time, playing the game again allows to practice new items and a new list is provided. It's definitely more interactive than usual paper-based activities. In case of using it in a class, the teacher can also add some speaking tasks for group work.

    I loved that activity Addeh:-) I tried it myself and it was a lot of fun!!!

    Addeh, thank you for this link.I could engage my nephews into the English world at last.

    Karine: ya, it is good interactive game for young learners of advance beginner/elementary level. Adelina: Glad to hear that. Actually the boy with whom I tried this also was pretty engaged in the game and few days ago when I met him and asked him to recall the words he learned back then, he almost named all of them. It provides a good visual for learning I suppose.

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.

podcast with support pack elementary listening reading cohesive order of sentences voca... - 4 views

    The PDF file includes a great range of various exercises. This activity is very useful as students learn to read and write while they are listening. Students need to read through the questions in the exercises in the practice materials before listening to the podcast. While they're scanning the text they will get an idea about what they are going to listen to. They have to read the instructions of each exercise carefully, as sometimes they must listen for the 'right' answers. But in some of these questions, they must choose the one answer that is not possible or wrong. These exercises are also appropriate for those who intend to take IELTS or iBT exams later. My students did this activity; they liked it and didn't get bored (the variety of the exercises made them busy and concentrated). I gave them some other podcasts with their support packs and saw their gradual improvement.

Vocabulary through Riddles - 2 views

  •  
    This game serves better for upper elementary learners as they have to possess certain vocabulary in order to read the riddles and match them to the corresponding words. I have piloted this game with my 17-18-year-old students of that level and it worked very well.
