Learning foreign languages in a playful way will help not only to broaden your horizons and learn more about culture, but also to fall in love with the subject, to facilitate its study. What is an extracurricular activity in English? This is something like a lesson, but only in a fun and relaxed way. Thanks to these activities, students understand the educational material faster and easier.
General statement of the purpose of the lesson and objectives. Making a plan
How are extracurricular activities at school? This is for class time. It is best, and even more useful, to conduct such classes in the fresh air. You should definitely show your imagination and diversify the lesson with bright pictures, equipment, think over songs and, of course, the script. Without it, any event will be boring and dull. Choose a fun scenario form and make sure every student can participate.
This pastime has 3 goals
1. Expanding horizons. Extra-curricular activities at school allow you to learn the language in more depth, analyze a certain topic, develop reading and dialogue skills.
2. General development goal. Improves communication skills, develops attention and memory, allows you to take the initiative.
3. Educational process. Acceptance of fresh information, introduction to the studied country, development of interest in the language.
You can take any topic as a theme. These are the weather, April Fool's Day, animals, Christmas, traditions, national cuisine, sports. Younger children should choose simpler ones, such as an account. In this article, we will try to think over a script for children of primary school age on the topic "Alphabet".
How to host an extracurricular activity in languages
To increase the motivation of students, the lesson should be conducted in a relaxed and half-joking manner. The beginning should be such that the children themselves want to develop the theme, that is, inspiring. Talk about the importance of teamwork.
Exercises and tongue twisters
To improve pronunciation, to form the necessary accent, tongue twisters will help, or rather their correct pronunciation. This is how the muscles of the tongue are trained. Tongue twisters should be the easiest. Even if the kids of primary school age cannot repeat everything, the main thing is that they will hear the correct speech. Fun exercises and jokes will help relieve tension, dilute the atmosphere even more, and allow you to relax. The development of an English language event is a very responsible process that can both introduce children to the subject and unite the school team more.
Guess the riddle
For older children, rhyming riddles can be used during the event. And little students will gladly listen to their teacher. For such kids, it is imperative to translate everything you say. And if the lesson is held on the street, carry out, armed with a large number of pictures.
An example of an activity for elementary grades "Funny Alphabet"
Children who are just starting to learn a foreign language will be interested in a script on the theme of the alphabet. Letters can be used in the form of pictures or in the form of soft toys. Be sure to come up with a light rhyme for each of them, preferably combining Russian and English phrases.
