Reading in English for children. “The Rainbow Fish”

By Great Little People
February 6, 2024

We started a new section with reviews. We want families to know what we read in Great Little People and how Reading in English for children participates in language acquisition. Oral reading and the presence of books always arouse children's curiosity. Curiosity is the starting point for “magic” to begin at this young age. It's where the ability to acquire new skills is in full swing. The encouragement of reading in English motivates the learning of new words and phonetics. That's why each class has a space dedicated to this activity.

Example of reading in English for children. “The Rainbow Fish”

The “Storytelling” moment, is always linked to the vocabulary in English that is being learned in each class. A suitable climate is created for listening, interaction and, above all, fun while children learn English. We have taken advantage of the summer theme with the game with marine animals. This week in the Summer Camp Digital, the specialized teaching staff included in the teaching project, the reading of “The Rainbow Fish” by Marcus Pfister. It's a perfect example of Reading in English for children.

This short story, full of colors, with a spectacular and brilliant illustration, tells the story of a small rainbow fish. It shone in the ocean and caused admiration within the marine world. The story not only allows us to acquire specific vocabulary about the animals of the sea.. Also about the marine environment and animal body parts. The activity is also a perfect opportunity to learn about and learn about emotions.

This rainbowfish, whose scales shimmered in the ocean, was selfish and very presumptuous. I didn't want to share its shiny scales with the rest of the fish in the sea.

On a very interesting journey through the depths of the ocean. The rainbow fish begins to be left alone as the rest of the fish walk away to see that it does not want to share its brightness. Thus, Rainbow, begins to ask other marine animals for advice. In this way, he discovers that sharing is a good way to make that “glow” for everyone.

Some of the values highlighted in the book are: generosity, the importance of emotional ties and, above all, the value of friends. Reading in English for children not only encourages intellectual stimulation in order to acquire a new language. It also encourages social interaction and the importance of affection.

This is a fundamental part of our teaching methodology and educational innovation in teaching English to children. Emotional education is, to a large extent, a starting point for learning any skill such as a new language.
