Playful activities

1 | In order to begin presenting the new words, bring to the classroom two Waving hands of different colors to represent the greetings Hello and Bye bye. Take into account that the best option is to have cut the images beforehand: place a balloon stick behind each hand to obtain puppets. After the children have learnt about these two greetings, walk around the classroom placing one of the big hands on the students´ heads for them to greet you properly.

2 | Ask your pupils if they know the expression Hi

5! Explain them its meaning and the occasions in which we use it. Later, allow the children to use the big hands to greet among themselves using this new expression. It is a good idea for you to begin the activity in order to set the example:

Child 1: Hi 5, Ale!

Child 2: Hi 5, Seba!

3 | This time use the boy / girl Finger puppet play; ask each pupil about their gender. Encourage them to answer using the puppet that represents them.

Teacher: Are you a boy or a girl?

Child: I’m a…

4 | Use the Finger puppet play of moments of the day to present Good Morning / Good Af ternoon / Good Night. Make sure they repeat these expressions while holding the puppets.

5 | Show your pupils the different flashcards of the unit to be mentioned correctly. Next, mention only boys for them to name cards; do the same with the girls. Finally, mention boys and girls as you expose the flashcards.

6 | You can also try placing the images of boy, girl and teacher on the floor. As you touch one flashcard with a big hand, the children will have the opportunity to deliver sentences that correspond to the greeting and character exposed. Later on, it could be the pupils the ones to choose the character and big hand with which they will mention the sentence.

Children: Bye-Bye, teacher! /Hello, girl! / Bye-Bye, boy!
