This one really speaks for itself.
Introduce the names of colors. Make sure that kids either are able to read the names of colors or work with a student who does. Distrubute the paints, brushes and worksheets and simply sit back relax (or run around with a cloth wiping the tables clean0. Enjoy!

This lesson provides an opportunity for YL to practise family vocabulary and have some fun with it.
You can pre-teach the vocabulary or encourage SS to guess the meaning from the context. You can put SS into pairs or groups and hand out the text and image cards for matching. Explain that SS need to read the family descriptions and match each description with its corresponding picture. You can read the cards if your SS can’t do that yet.
After that invite SS to draw a picture of a family. Then they write a short text describing that family. Make an activity similiar to this one with their cards and pictures. My SS loved to see their own work turned into teaching material.

Dzisiaj post po polsku, dla polskich czytelników, bo zajęcia wymagają wyprodukowanej w Polsce gry pt. ‘Kółka i spółka’.
Gra składa się z kart oraz wyciętych z grubej tektury kształtów. Kwadraty, koła, trójkąty i prostokąty w trzech rozmiarach i różnych kolorach.
Moje własne dzieciaki korzystały z gry bardzo chętnie, więc postanowiłem wykorzystać ją do zajęć językowych.
Najbardziej oczywiste jest wykorzystanie gry do wprowadzenia nazw kształtów i rozmiarów. Ja dorzuciłem jeszcze okoliczniki miejsca i inne wyrażenia służące do opisu położenia przedmiotów w przestrzeni.
Zaczynam lekcję od wprowadzenia/powtórzenia nazw kształtów. Potem można zrobić jakieś ćwiczenie TPR w stylu rysowania kształtów na plecach, układanie kształtów z długopisów lub ciał dzieci (jeśli macie na to miejsce 😉).
Potem wchodzi załączony handout. Słownictwo, czytanie, pisanie, słuchanie i mówienie. Wszystko jest.
Zapraszam.

This lesson was designed as a follow up to my other YL lesson on astronaut food: https://englishvee.com/2021/01/17/kids-try-astronaut-food/
It can be used for YL and more advanced SS, depending on your lesson plan. There are two worksheets to choose from.
I always start the lesson with this video. I pause it after every fail and ask SS three questions:
Handouts:
This handout is more of a passive, multiple choice, cross-out type of activities…
This one on the other hand allows T and SS to get a lot more creative. You can ask SS to write a recipefor a peanut butter and jelly sandwich (pb&j) in their own words or based on some YT tutorial. You can also use it to introduce vocabulary for sequencing (First, next, after that, later, last, etc.)
For more advanced SS you can use this material for a fun and a very educational CLIL activity (science and IT). Invite SS to imagine that they writing instructions for a robot or an alien.
Using the instructions SS provide T attempts to make PB&J sandwiches.
Follow the instructions as literally as possible
It can get super fun, as T (the robot) cannot even open a jar.
don't overthink shit
