Links to activities from our meeting on June 16

It was great to see everyone today! We got into some ACTIONS and learned some games for teaching action verbs to children.

First I gave everyone a print that includes some useful verb cards. Click HERE to go to the website where that came from. As we discussed, pictures are a great way to communicate with children, especially those who cannot read yet.

We discussed 4 different activities to do with these cards #1, 2 and 3 are explained on the site with the verb cards):

1. The gesture game
2. Simon Says (the "Please" game that we talked about in our first meeting)
3. The timed race game
4. A song that uses several of the verbs found on the cards

You can see a video of the song on YouTube:

And, as it says below the video, you can get a free download of the song by clicking HERE to go to the Dream English Kids website.

See you next time -- June 30!
