The Greetings and Introductions Resource has Six worksheets and a lot more. Link: https://www.bilingualmarketplace.com/products/greetings-resources-for-kinder-and-elementary-esl?variant=36125058105508 Teach children from the very first day how to say Hello or Hi in English. It can be a short hello or a long one. When I was a teaching preschool I would bring in a maraca hand that would make a noise as I greeted everyone. Try to use children´s name when saying Hello. Teacher: Hello, Marcos ! Marco: Hello, Teacher ! ( The students greets with his hand puppet) Sometimes, I would hand in the Hello Hand Clapper to someone to be the one who greets another student or the class. It is nice to have different maracas for the everyday greeting. I keep my eyes open when I go to toy stores, dollar stores or piñata stores. They have wonderful things for this intention. It can be clackers, whistles, harmonicas, clappers, maracas. For longer greetings there´s a song that got from old books that would come with a cassette. I used to sing that to my twin daughters when they were born. Teacher: Good morning, good morning. Good morning to you . Good morning, good morning. And how are you ? Greetings Worksheet 1. This is another version of the Hello Hand. Have the children color the Hello Hand Green and the Goodbye Hand red, like a traffic light. Then the hands can be cut and glued onto craft stick and they are Greeting puppets. Children can greet each other with the puppet. Worksheet 2 and 3 . Introducing the words boy,girl and teacher. There´s the props page for the teacher. I turned them into puppets. Worksheet 4. Children will draw themselves and cut / glue the word boy or girl. Worksheet 5. Children will trace the words Hi, Hello. Cut/Glue the bubbles next to each child. I got some plastic plates and added the printables boy, girl and teachers saying hello. I made a memory game for that first class with so many minutes and we don´t know what else to do. And then thought that some graphing using clothespin with the students´name on it will work with the plates. And then I added craft sticks and turned them into puppets for making a line for boys and another for girls. They turned out cute and for door decoration are nice! Leave your comments and requests.

Say a color and have the students name the birthday items: PINK! Students: gift bag! Cake! Build vocabulary when learning parts of the face within the birthday unit helps students with a specific set of vocabulary in a structured context using words like "eyes," "nose," "mouth," and "ears" can be reviewed naturally.

Show the number flashcard one at a time in random order and have the students look up for the number in their book and point to it. Flashcard activity 1 that review numbers and colors at the same time: Stand 10 students in front of the class. Hand in the number flashcards in random order. Stand behind a student. Teacher: What is her name ? Students: Patricia. Teacher: What is Patricia´s number ? Students: seven. Flashcard activity 2: Stand 10 students in front of the class. Hand in the number flashcards in order. Stand behind a student. Teacher: What number is this ? Students: four. Teacher: What color is number 4 ? Students: pink. Continue with all the numbers. The use of the cutouts is for active participation of the whole class. The activities here are noncompetitive and supposed to involve all children. Laminate your cutouts with clear contact paper. Place the cake cutout on the board. Have a student come to the board and give him/her the candles. Ask How old are you ? Have the student place that number of candles on the cake. Count the candles with the class. Teacher: How many candles are there ? let´s count! One, two,three four, five! Five candles. Get a birthday bag and place 5 real candles or cutouts. Take one out at a time and start counting with the class. Place all the cutouts in the bag. Show the different cakes cutouts. Teacher: What color is the cake ? Students: It´s yellow and pink.

Thank you. Blow up all the balloons. Give each child a Sharpie marker and have him/her write their name on the balloon. Tie the balloon to the back of their chairs. Teacher: Blue balloons, stand up ! Teacher: Red balloons, run! Teacher: yellow balloons, jump ! Letter arts and crafts is so popular that I am creating more uppercase letters for each theme, so the collection gets bigger. It is fun for children to put together the letter craft, but you can make them for class decoration. Use the worksheets as a supplement to your lesson planning. It reviews emotions, face, color recognition, shapes and numbers by improving fine motor skills along the way. The worksheets are supposed to be fun and challenging. I made banners, necklaces, flashcards and Bingo. This time a wish balloon. Place any cutout from a magazine of something that you wish. Teacher: I wish for a sweater and shoes. Put the wish symbol over your head. Have the children do the same. Flashcards are still effective tools for the class. Plan motivating games with the theme for independent learning or for groups. I created a birthday wheel to play a guessing game or for the students to make their own. Puzzles can help with spatial relationships, eye-hand coordination, and fine motor skills. Children can do the puzzles by themselves. Make two copies of each puzzle, one is for showing it to the students and the other is the one that you will cut apart to complete. Then, show the pieces of puzzle that the students are going to complete and count the pieces.

Almost done with the birthday unit. I had some worksheets from previous years and made extra ones. I added them them to the same product from the previous blog post about the Birthday Unit Vocabulary. LINK: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Birthday-Unit-for-ESL-5279726 It is also available here: https://www.bilingualmarketplace.com/products/birthday-unit-for-esl?variant=34616677793956 Worksheet 1. A simple worksheet to review a basic grammar point. Then, students cut the pictures and sentence and write more sentences on their notebooks. Worksheet 2. This is a reading and coloring the picture worksheet. I used a finger eye to read. I don’t remember where I got them. Watch the video. Worksheet 3. Instead of color by number , it is a color by word. After the worksheet is done the children cut it up and have the student next to him/her glue the puzzle worksheet on the notebook. Worksheet 4. This worksheet is useful for lower level students. When the students have to do a matching word to picture I ask them to use a different color for each word. For the numbered cupcakes, dictate the color for each one. Teacher: Cupcake number one is red. Worksheet 5. Dictate the color of each cake. When you do this it helps with listening. Teacher: Cake number one is purple. Have the students color the number as you dictate. Teacher: Number one is blue. Students cut and paste the numbers where they belong. Once the worksheet is completed, make a mobile by hanging the cakes in the correct number sequence. Worksheet 6. After the worksheet is colored, students can cut all the cakes and write a sentence describing each one on their notebooks. Worksheet 7. Decorating a cupcake should be fun! Have the students add anything they want such as real sprinkles to decorate their personal cupcake. Worksheet 8. I made two versions for this worksheet. It is an already colored worksheet that you can place into a clear plastic sheet and students can write using a dry erase marker. The other version is a normal worksheet. Worksheet 9. Another read and color worksheet. Thinking that the cake can be turned into a puppet for reading. Worksheet 10 and 11. I included easier to complete worksheets for the lower level students that you might have. Worksheet 12. For more advanced students this worksheet is great. After the worksheet is done, cut it all and make a match game. Worksheet 13. After the students complete the worksheets do a little listening as you dictate the colors of all the vocabulary words. Teacher: Color the lemonade yellow. Have the students cut the sentences and pictures and glue on their notebooks as they match them. Worksheet 14. The questionnaire. Have the students walk around asking questions to their classmates and completing the questionnaire. Students can write the results on their notebooks. There will be another blog post with more resources for the Birthday unit. Follow me!!

This is the ninth theme from the series of 30 units for the Preschool-Kindergarten English Language Learners.Useful for any ELL teacher. Here are some teaching tips for the first part of the lesson plan for the My Toys Unit, the Presentation. LINK: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Toys-Unit-for-Kindergarten-Holistic-English-Series-9-6169520 A set of Toys Unit Flashcards for students to identify and name that include ball,teddy bear, car, doll, toybox,kite,robot. Aural and visual learners will benefit from the use of flashcards in class. There are some toys cards in plural to introduce the grammar point of: one ball,two balls. Show the use of this and these with the flashcards. Teacher: This is a robot. These are robots. Ask questions with How many? Teacher: How many robots? Students: four! Three ideas for using these Flashcards for the TOys Unit for teaching Kindergarten English Language Learners. Use the flashcards to introduce the verb to be with the toys vocabulary as students can name the colors of each one. Teacher: It's a car. What color is the car? Student: yellow. Idea 1: Use magnetic letters or any kind of letters that you have available and lead your students to write each toy word. Have the students say sentences. Students: This is a car. This is not a doll. Idea 2: These toys have a face: the doll, the teddy bear, the robot. Have your students either trace each facial feature or draw them. I placed each flashcard inside a clear plastic sheet and using white board markers students can do this activity, erase and give it to another classmate to do the same. Ask questions: Where is the nose? Student: here! Idea 3: Cut the flashcards into 4 or 8 pieces and students can put them together as a fun wrap up activity. I love to practice the phrase color + noun for each unit. There is a set of all the toys in different colors for you review that. Sorting on the board is a fun and easy way to do it. Toy Graph. Place several flashcards on the board, divide them into columns. Give students the favorite toy worksheet. Ask them to draw their favorite toy from the ones displayed on the board. Then, have students come to the board and paste their worksheet under the same flashcard as their drawing. They should say what their favorite toy is and describe it. Teacher: What's your favorite toy? Count how many drawings each flashcard has a record the information on a graph. Model and introduce the grammar structure as they place their drawing under the corresponding flashcard: I play with my ball. Find real toys and have the students match the real toys to the flashcards. The toys and the face. Place a flashcard on the board and review the parts of the face with the students. Teacher: Look! What is this? Students: mouth! Place the doll or the teddy bear flashcard on the board and have the students name each part of the face. There is also a set of the boy and girl teddy bear. Use them to ask Who questions. Have the students circle each face part if you place the flashcards inside a clear plastic sheet. Teacher: This is the teddy bear's face. His eyes are brown. His nose is brown. And have the students identify and talk about the emotions of the toys! Have the students sort the emotions of the flashcards featuring a teedy bear, a robot and a car that's happy, sad and angry. Three flashcards to use for asking questions in simple present: Who has? Teacher: Who has a kite ? Students: Pam! If the students can´t read have them point to the flashcards. Give students the toys flashcards and ask questions: What toy do you have? Student: I have a ball. (I have got a ball) Review the shapes using these teddy bears shapes flashcards: circle,square, triangle, rectangle. There is a set of more toys unit flashcards, such as puzzle, puppet,blocks, yo-yo, scooter,board game among others. There is a set of flashcards in Spanish for dual language or bilingual teachers. TOYS Commands Flashcards. Introduce the commands (imperatives) related to toys such as : PLAY! Put away! Píck up! Use the flashcards to give instructions with the action verb: play. Teacher: Play with the doll! Students run and find a doll shows it to the teacher. The students that finds one wins a point. Continue with more toys. This will be fun if you are doing online teaching. Also use these flashcards to introduce the phrase: Let's play! If you are working with values, use the put away toys flashcards. Toys Unit Small cards. First, Craft the stuffed shapes. Assign a color to each teddy bear shape. Students color the shape, also dictate the color of the facial features. I added wiggly eyes in different color to each shape. Students can make just one teddy bear to play the game. Teacher: look at the triangle bear. Color the nose red. Color the ears brown. Color the triangle green. Students trace the shape onto any recycled construction paper. Cut the traced shape and glue both together and leave an opened space between them. The shapes can be filled with cotton, torn recycled paper and any other. Play throw the teddy bear to. I placed a small card to each plastic plate and had the students throw the teddy bear as they hear the instruction. Teacher: Throw the teddy bear to the car! Take a look! Also prepare the toy box using a cereal box and the printable. Give directions to students: Put the ball in the toy box. Students can say the phrase: my ball! Play a game as your students match the small cards to the big flashcards. Play Bowling with the toys unit small cards.Place each small card on a binder and have a ball to play. Student:A black robot! Toys Unit Cutouts. All the toys in 11 different colors to do lots of speaking activities. Sorting the toys cutouts by color is another fun activity to have your students work on their own or in small groups. Use the cutouts to role play having a toy store. Toys Cutouts can help with making patterns. Print the strips and have the students name each toy item as they create the pattern. Print the cutouts twice. Glue one set onto cardboard. Then have the younger students match each robot as they say a phrase:a purple robot! Write the color words on cardboard and have the students match the cutouts to each word. Or write the vocabulary words and the students will match the toy to the word.
