 Through games, printables, and hands-on activities, students can practice vocabulary, speaking, and early reading in a natural and enjoyable context.


Printable Birthday Unit Book

Let’s make a Birthday printable book to spark an interested in the students for reading. This is further practice within the unit. I add sight words that are common for EFL that will improve reading fluency in the future.

Establish the context of the story by asking questions about the cover of the book. Show the cake on the cover, the candles.

 Students will cut and paste the corresponding word to each page as they read the sentence. You can dictate to your students the color of each birthday item. Have them demonstrate the understanding of the story. Ask questions: What is this?, What color is the cake?, Do you like cake?

Inglese demonstrate the understanding of the story

Birthday Unit Pocket chart

Use it as a repetition of the birthday words. Students can work on their own as they match the pictures to the words. Place the words and pictures on the pocket chart and point to each one as the whole class reads them all.

Place only the pictures and hand in the words as the students come and place it next to the correct picture.

Have yur students name all the food that you eat at a party. Then, name all the items that you see.

Birthday Unit Board Game

 Playing with parents at home or with the classmate will teach cooperation as they will have to take turns with the die and wait for the other students to move their character.
