WRITING IN ENGLISH

I think it was the best lecture about the book "English for Primary Teachers" although all presentations are very important for develop our syllabus so it was very interesting pay attention.

Children enjoy themselves writing with colours and working in pairs, so we have to exploit resouces like this. As a teacher, we also have to help them at the beginning write about people, so the main ideas to descibe people and then we will teach them to write more complicated essays with a simple structure.
This group realize several activities about how carry out this topic in class:

  • Having fun making a book in class all together. They can make up a little sentence and then other classmate continues with the story, or making a paragraph each day and realize one story for month.
  • Writing with penfriends. It is a very good idea to improve the writing.
  • "Gafa party" What color is it?". to work the colors in a funny way for children.
  • The typical word game to work with a specific letter all kind of things like: place, color, food, clothes and so on.
  • Describe the teacher aloud but not physically. (We did it in class)
But the most fantastic game was: "What word is it?".
They had a sheet of paper with different shapes like a circles, stars ans squares, each shape contained one word like: definition, picture, sentence, synonym, antonym, suffixes, part of speech, related words.
This kind of activity serves children to learn consciously each new word, and not only pay attention in the word, but that mens this word and its application in other kinds of situations.
