Learn English by playing

By Great Little People
February 6, 2024

Our materials have been designed to Learn English while playing. Developed especially for young ages, it is a way to motivate and encourage children to research and interact on their own. In other words, it's a perfect way to learn English while playing in a fun way.

Magnetic whiteboards as elements for learning English while playing

We have several materials in English for children with which to apply our revolutionary method of learning the language while playing. However, some of the most striking are our magnetic whiteboards. In our classrooms, our students go through several corners where they can collaborate in the development of the sessions. For example, holding meetings and indicating with colored magnets, which colleagues have come. In this case, we ask them to say what day of the week it is, putting a star where it belongs. Or also what the weather is like that day and what clothes we wear thanks to the images that represent it. When we review emotions, we do so through individual mirrors where we imitate the gestures of each of them and together with our own songs in English, which will accompany us from the beginning to the end of the session. These and others are some important examples of our innovative methodology of Learning English with games.

Espejos sensoriales

Phonetics in English for children is our main pillar in the methodology

This is because it is a system that we have implemented in a unique way and we work it through mysterious boxes. In them, we introduce tangible objects that begin with that sound. Children can experiment, using all five senses and thus have a complete experience of sounds, words and songs. That is why in this same corner we began to work on reading and writing. But also the Alphabet in English using sand strokes, also called sensory boxes for initiating pre-writing. In the case of the elderly, we do it by means of marker boards or chalks and strokes with plasticine. In many cases, the fact that we have a large amount of material allows us to adapt to the different groups we have. For example, with puzzles to form words using the blending technique.

Our dynamic activities comprise an enormous amount of games in English for children. From simulating that we are on a bus when we see the transports to having to draw our body on a paper where they identify the parts of our body. Within our teaching units, we introduce a wide spectrum of elements such as finger painting, balloons, stickers and we pretend to create the right environment for each one of them. In addition, each of the routines makes sense within the session. In this way, we can vary the presentation of the contents with series monitoring, shadow recognition, bingos, intelligence bits, and even fine motor skills with tweezers.

The eating corner is a children's favorite

Not only because of the novelty but because of doing this activity in another language. On many occasions we also make recipes with them and they love it! In some cases, children try foods and textures they don't know. An example of this activity is to show the letter “A” and then show an apple while saying “Apple! At that time we all tasted a piece of the fruit.

The last corner is that of the Reading in English for children. Here we seek relaxation to go home with the best feelings after a session of intense learning and acquisition of English.

In this case, we slightly dramatize the Stories to learn English to make it more playful. In some sessions we give them freedom of voluntary choice so that they can develop their imagination and we ask them what they see in the images of the yarns.
