Best Primary English Writing Activity. " Who is this boy?"

-



Activity : Roll the Dice...Read the Question...Write the Answer.
                                        This is one of my favourite activities done with my 1st class children. For developing written discourse. I prepared this picture dice after oral discourse of this language task. Through this activity children will able to write answer the question, read the question and write their friends names with their help. And also they can develop their language usage with their other friends and family members. It will help the children to understand how to write answers using phrases.
                                           With this picture dice, I prepared a worksheet with questions and distribute among my children. I asked them to sit in groups and roll the dice. Now other group members should ask that question " Who is this boy?". Then the children who rolled this dice should say the answer loud like " He is Ramcharan?". Now he should write the answer. Like other children should continue.

                                  Learning a language requires a great deal of effort. Games help students to make and sustain the effort of learning. Games provide language practice in the various skills – speaking, writing, listening and reading. They create a meaningful context for language use. Here I am going to describe a few games to teach and practice vocabulary.


Onion Rings:


This is a good game for practicing vocabulary, spellings and also a good speaking activity when you have a short dialogue you want to practice.You do need room for this or could do it outside.First, divide the class into two.One half stands in a circle facing outwards, the other half stands in a larger circle around them facing inwards.Each pupil should be opposite another pupil.They have 2-3 minutes to ask and answer as many questions as possible, then the outer circle has to move onto the next pupil, stop when they've come full…

Topic: Techniques for writing tasks, Skill Focused: Writing, Grade: Primary and Lower Secondary.                                   Many students find it difficult to write in a cohesive, interesting and fluent style.  When we ask students to write, often we are just testing their skills rather than teaching them how to write or how to improve their writing.                    Sometimes, stating clear rules and expectations is just not enough. It may not work for all your students. That’s why you should also take a “lighter” path. What does that mean? It means that you can use non-intrusive motivation techniques that will inspire your students instead of scaring them. As a teacher, your role is to help each and every student improve themselves, acquire new skills, and become a better individual by the end of their time spent in school.                      So, here are my three techniques to help learners dig deeper when they write.
1. Picture Writing:                      For students ex…
