INTRODUCTION
We have put this manual together because we believe that teachers
play an important role in language learning. It is primarily the
teacher whose task is to motivate the learners, inspire them and
provoke their interest. Only in this way learners will develop their
love for the language that will lead to successful language learning.
WHO IS THIS MANUAL FOR
This manual is aimed at teachers with little or no experience, and
for those teachers who have extensive experience in teaching
young learners. The manual contains a vast number of activities
suitable for learners aged 6 to 11 that will spark their interest,
creativity and enthusiasm. We believe that the recommended
activities for each grade will lead to a high degree of motivation and
make the English classroom an enjoyable and stimulating
environment for everyone, including the teacher.
THE LEARNERS
We are all aware that young children have a short attention span,
and therefore need shorter activities that will keep their interest. It is
for this purpose that the manual contains activities that will require
colouring in, cutting with scissors, singing songs, playing games
and activities that are not too demanding in the early stages of
learning the language. Grade one primarily focuses on Total
Physical response (TPR), which is an extremely useful and
adaptable teaching method. With TPR learners listen to their
teacher telling them what to do, and then do it. Instructions tend to
range from very simple sentences to more complex ones. However,
bear in mind that children tend to understand much more than they
can produce. As we progress further, we have suggested activities
and tasks that are relevant, more challenging, practical, motivating
and at the same time enjoyable.

GRADE 1
According to the Grade 1 curriculum, students are expected to
develop positive attitude towards language learning and to
understand basic spoken language.
There are a multitude of approaches, methods, principles, and
techniques used in foreign language teaching. Needless to say,
none of them is the right and the most appropriate method. The
teacher herself/himself must decide on the method she wants to
use in teaching her students.
Methodological approaches in the first grade, and when teaching
very young learners, in general, are based on the so-called TPR
Method (Total Physical Response). This method emphasizes
listening as a skill as it exposes students to the target language.
Language production comes at a later stage, when the child is
ready. However, as time progresses, learners gain more confidence
as they can understand and do what they have been asked.
British Councils free Learn English Kids website offers a variety of
songs, games and other activities that learners can do at this
particular level. To choose songs and different activities, go to the
Learn English Kids website at learnenglishkids.britishcouncil.org/en

http://learnenglishkids.britishcouncil.org/en/songs/brush-bus (linkot

http://learnenglishkids.britishcouncil.org/en/songs/the-busy-elf
Children learn through play and often are not aware that they are
learning if they are enjoying the game. Games, apart from being
motivating and educational, help children be more creative. The
visual and the sound effects only further enhance learning. A
sample game is Paint it where children can visualise the animals
and paint them with the required colour, thus revising already
learned vocabulary.

19
GRADE 2
Learners in grade 2 have been exposed to some listening and
speaking activities in grade 1. Although they understand basic
classroom language, exposure to language is crucial at this level.
Besides word games, students will be exposed to the target
language by doing a variety of different tasks and activities ranging
from listening and watching short stories, acting out stories, singing
songs and some hands-on activities. Teachers can print materials
to use in class.

At this stage, learners have the opportunity to register on the site.
They can create their own avatars, write comments which are
published and read comments from other learners of English. All
comments are moderated by site editors to ensure a safe online
environment. Recently published comments are featured in the
Your comments box on the home page for the world to see, which
can be very motivating for learners. Pupils can also participate in
polls to vote on various issues.
Quizzes and other fun drag and drop activities can be used to help
students practise vocabulary. These activities can be done online.
In addition, much of the vocabulary is presented through
flashcards.

GRADE 4
These students are able to read and write, each child at their own
speed and knowledge. The complexity of language learning is very
much present and obvious here. Students are guided towards
autonomy, however slowly.
By carefully selecting activities and taking the same activities
sometimes from previous levels, teachers can make the
requirements for the song, story or game more difficult by letting
students have the text in front of them (there is also a Text off
option).
Since reading and writing are considered to be more complex
mental activities, teachers need to gradually introduce each novelty.

GRADE 5
The expansion of the reading and writing skills is even more
emphasized in the fifth grade.
Fifth grade students can compare and contrast, and share their
knowledge with the prior knowledge from other courses taught in
school. The skills of reading and writing can be employed and
practiced here in a controlled manner with some student autonomy.
Grammar games and activities are more challenging for this level.
However, they are still fun and motivating. They provide students
opportunities to respond quickly, and guess the right word order in
the sentence. The encouraging sound effect is very supportive and
leading. Grammar videos are also important for this level.
For grade 5 learners, the Learn English Kids website offers texts,
dialogues, twisters, songs, games and videos which can be used
both in the classroom and at home.
Audio and video activities are accompanied by printable worksheets
that can be done in or out of the classroom.
Grammar is taught in a more explicit manner at this level. There are
numerous things which can be done when learning or practising
grammar. Teachers and students can find grammar games,
grammar videos, grammar quizzes and grammar tests at

More extensive reading is offered within the stories section that also
allows teachers to download and print worksheets. There is a
possibility to print the text of the stories that may be used in the
classroom while watching and listening to the story. This section
allows for practising of all four skills with the students and there are
a variety of tasks that offer opportunities for extra practice.
The sections Read and Write and Speak and Spell can be used
for ample opportunities of practicing these skills.
