Learning foreign languages in a playful way will help not only broaden your horizons and learn more about culture, but also love the subject and facilitate its study. What is an extracurricular English event ? This is a bit of a lesson, but only in a fun and relaxed way. Thanks to these activities, students quickly and easily understand the learning material.
General statement of the purpose of the lesson and tasks. Planning
How are extracurricular activities at school? Lesson time is allocated for this. It is best, and more useful, to conduct such classes in the fresh air. It is necessary to show imagination and diversify the lesson with vivid pictures, equipment, think over songs and, of course, the script. Without it, any event would be boring and dull. Choose a fascinating form of the script and make sure that each student can take part in it.
This pastime pursues 3 goals
1. Expansion of horizons. Extra-curricular activities at the school allow you to learn the language in more depth, analyze a specific topic, develop reading and dialogue skills.
2. General developmental goal. Improves communication skills, develops attention and memory, allows you to take the initiative.
3. The educational process. Acceptance of fresh information, familiarization with the country being studied, development of interest in the language.
As a topic, you can take any. This is the weather, April Fool's Day, animals, Christmas, traditions, national cuisine, sports. Younger children should choose simpler ones, for example, an account. In this article we will try to think over the script for primary school children on the theme "Alphabet".
How to conduct an extracurricular event in languages
To increase students' motivation, the lesson should be conducted in a relaxed and half-joking manner. The beginning should be such that the children themselves want to develop a theme that is inspirational. Tell us about the importance of teamwork.
Exercises and tongue twisters
To improve the pronunciation, to form the necessary emphasis will help tongue twisters, or rather their correct pronunciation. So the muscles of the tongue are trained. Tongue twisters should be the easiest. Even if children of primary school age, not everyone can repeat, the main thing is that they will hear the correct speech. Funny exercises and jokes will help relieve tension, dilute the atmosphere even more, and allow you to relax. The development of an event in the English language is a very responsible process that can both introduce children to the subject and rally the school team more.
guess a riddle
For older children, you can use rhyming riddles during the event. And little students happily listen to their teacher. For such kids, you should definitely translate everything you say. And if the lesson is held on the street, carry out, armed with a large number of pictures.
