Kinder 5- starting lessons 2

to colour when you say “The leaf is green” for example. Although they don’t know the vocabulary, it is useful to say
the objects in English)
Kinder 5- starting lessons 3
Relaxation: online game (in groups): Colors monsters - Cuestionario (wordwall.net)
https://wordwall.net/es/resource/6398011/colors-monsters
Activity # 2 (numbers 1-10)
Warm up: *revise colours- They pick up a card (from memory game) and the teacher asks “What’s your favourite
colour?”- They should answer saying the colour they have in the card.
*Take some colour pencils from the box. First, ask the colour of the pencils. Then, use them to count up to
10. You can count them, different times using different intonations or forms (example: whispering, as a
monster, as a little ant, crying, smiling, etc)
Presentation: show this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DR-cfDsHCGA- Students who want can repeat
the numbers while watching the video.
Systematization: using puppets: introduce/revise:
How old are you?
I’m (four/five)
Practice: give students one of the puppets (they usually choose the one they want) and with the other puppet ask
them the question. They should try to answer it with their age.
Kinder 5- starting lessons 4
Production: *Trace the number and colour the pictures following the teacher’s instructions. (Example: number one is
red- so, students trace number 1 using a red pencil and they colour one apple using a red pencil- always check if they
are colouring the correct picture)- Once, they finish colouring everything, they cut and glue the pictures next to the
correct number. (It’s better if they cut and glue one by one in order not to lose the pictures and in order not to make
the activity so difficult)
Relaxation: what’s missing? game. The teacher sticks all the number cards on the board. She makes students close
their eyes and removes of the numbers. She makes students open their eyes again and they should discover what
number disappeared and they should try to say it in English.
1 2 3 4 5
6 7 8 9 10
Activity # 3 (school objects-colours- numbers)
Warm up: colours/numbers race. The teacher sticks cards with numbers and colours on the board. Students get into
two groups. The teacher calls out a number or a colour and the first student of each line should run and pick up the
correct card. (if students don’t frustrate with competitions, you can write down on the board the points of each
group)
Presentation: see the video, sing the song and if they want, they can represent it.
