Clothes Crafts for Preschool ESL

Clothes Unit ESL Crafts enhance creativity and their imagination. I chose to do paper crafts. Use any materials you have around in class or at home. The clothes can be decorated with fabric, beads and more. I made the paper dolls stand by using a strip of a toilet paper roll and cut two small slits on the sides. Students can talk about everyday clothing items that they wear.

 Clothes Rewards (Motivation Tools)

Clothes Unit Rewards help keep students motivated, I always include one in every resource. I made these bracelets. Just print the template. Cut and paste onto a 3cm. toilet paper tubes.

Cardigan

 I printed the clothing items onto cardboard and opened a slit in the middle of each one and passed it through the buttons.

Small Cards Review Game

Clothes Unit Small cards are great for your visual learners; they will love how colorful the cards are. They are small enough to use online. As clothes as easy to draw play Pictionary.

Display the small cards and have a student pick one card and draw it on the board. The class has to guess what it is and name it. The first student to do so will be the one to draw the next picture.
