Dear all,
I have a half-hour slot in the school break to teach English to a group of ten children, rotating each day from the 3 year olds to the 11 years. Due to the fact that I am taking their break time I base this session on games which is not difficult as we are based in the gymnasium rather than a classroom filled with desks. I have found many ideas for activities to carry out with the older children, but this post is to ask for ideas of activities for younger children: the 3 to 6 year age group. I sing many English songs with them, read them very simple books in English, give them 3-5 new words of vocabulary using flashcards, use puppets to introduce simple conversation phrases, but am lacking games. They enjoy action songs, but I am looking for actual games.
Does anyone have any suggestions for English language games for 3-6 year olds that involve moving their bodies, please?
Thank you in advance.
