Learn English for children, we teach you the best way

By Great Little People

Learning English for children, like any other language, occurs more quickly and naturally when they are young.

When teaching English to children, we must bear in mind that they perceive reality in a global way.

For most, this will be the first contact with the English language, so we cannot start from the student's previous knowledge. A good method is one that is based on students' interests and parallel knowledge that you are acquiring in your native language.

The activities that are done with children should be of a playful nature, through physical experimentation with their own body. It's about having contact with the English language in the most natural way possible, through games, songs, stories and manual work.

Initially, with the game, we are able to motivate students and thus introduce them to a fun environment that encourages their creativity. Once we have achieved this playful dynamic, with the initial routines, we will involve students in the teaching-learning process, which is always a dynamic, fun and motivating process.

Activities in English for children that promote language learning:

Motor activities

They allow children to promote their motor skills and abilities in an attractive way to apply them later to their daily needs. Body expression games enhance the externalization of emotions while encouraging students' creativity and imagination.

Canciones

The songs serve as a motivating element for us, and in Great Little People they are adapted to the pedagogical content of the sessions. Thus, they become a great way to learn English, improving the learning of vocabulary and grammatical structures.

Plastic activities

These support the child's expression through drawing and colors. It will also allow teachers to get to know each individual better, as well as to evaluate the contents of each unit.

Experiencing activities through the senses

Sensory stimulation activities will be the basis for learning and reasoning, using the physical expression of both the body itself and its environment.

Learn English for children with stories

Los Stories to learn English serve to introduce and clarify the basic concepts of each thematic block. The different stories will be based on the vocabulary learned and will be clear and simple to facilitate understanding.

At these ages, children's attention span is very brief, so it is due to change in body posture and spatial distribution as much as the activities allow us, as well as the activities themselves.

Great Little People is committed to playful and psychomotor games, the manipulation of real or symbolic objects, songs, routines, hygiene habits, the creation of needs in children for subsequent oral expression and communicative exchanges between students, among others, as a method for acquiring a foreign language in an active and meaningful way.
