Let's get dressed



Let’s get dressed 


In this entry I will post different activities that can be useful to teach clothes vocabulary






To introduce the selected words (clothes vocabulary), students can watch this interesting video so as to get familiarized with the new concepts. I think that the activity will be really appealing for young learners because they will be really engaged with the proposed task as they have to interact with the “Wonkidos” (characters that appear on the net). The teacher won’t be in charge of introducing the new vocabulary. He/she will take profit of the source in order to present the task as pleasant/attractive as possible to his/hers students. 



Annie and Joe need to get dressed
 

By using different flashcards, students will review and consolidate the vocabulary. The purpose of this task is to dress up two characters: Joe and Annie. The teacher will ask for volunteers and pupils will have to decide the clothes that they will use in order to dress up these two cartoons.

Once a kid has chosen some clothes, he/she will have to recall the new words that he/she has already heard or learnt. In this way, at the same time students are playing, they will be consolidating the foreseen words. I think it is a good activity to deal with young learners in a ESL classroom.  












          
Through this game, students will have the opportunity to consolidate the vocabulary. The teacher will read the possible options and pupils will have to choose the correct word.
