This is a very exciting activity for the learners of any age who are in their beginning level. While teaching i tried it out and discovered that learners were more attentive to the details. I would recommend it to any learners who want to learn writing and pronouncing correctly. Don't miss your chance to learn them quickly and effectevily!!!
Looking at the power point slides the beginner students will learn the types of weather. After that they can listen to the recorder and pronounce the words related to weather correctly.
This activity will help the beginner students to learn the names of the animals. The power point will help them to remember the names easily as it is with pictures of animals. At the sasme time the students can learn the indefinite article "a". After looking at the power point the students can listen to the recorder and thus pronounce the names of the animals in a correct way.
This cartoon can be used to practice the four skills: reading, writing, speaking, listening.
Suggestion on how to use:
Before students listen/read the story, they are pre-taught some new vocabulary used in the story.
Then students can play the story in pictures while they're listening to it. They can click on the button "READ" to turn off and on the text. It's better if the first time, they listen to the story with the text on (reading while listening). Then, they will listen to the story with the text off and see if they can still understand. (listening)
When they feel confident, they can watch the story again with the text off and try to tell the story along with the pictures, without reading (speaking).
You can also ask them to write this tale down as a composition (about 250 words or more if you want to). Vocabulary can also be boosted through story. Students can also come up with their own ideas by discussing where they would go if they had a magic carpet.
I tried this with my young advance elementary students and it was pretty successful. we had also a very engaging discussion in which students said they would have gone if they have had a magic carpet. They also very much liked the cartoon itself.
