After introducing community helpers vocabulary with flashcards, it’s important to give students opportunities to practice and use the new words in an interactive way.

These Community Helpers small cards are perfect for hands-on activities, helping preschool and kindergarten ESL learners develop speaking skills, recognition, and confidence. Small cards are especially effective because they allow every student to actively participate during the lesson.

Using vocabulary cards in interactive games helps reinforce learning, improve memory, and support language development through repetition and movement.

facial features of the community helpers

  Students can recognize and name the facial features of the community helpers as they name each one. You can also name the body parts.Make small pointers out of a craft stick and a pompom or a sticker.

First, ask the question: Who's this?
Students: the firefighter!
Have the students point to the parts of the face as you name and they repeat the word.

Clothes the community helpers wear

Teacher: This is the doctor. What is this? 
Students: It's a coat.
Teacher: What color is the coat? 
Students: white.

Teacher: What is she wearing? 
Students: She is wearing blue pants and a blue hirt.

Games with the Small Cards

      I saw this idea and had to give it a try. I placed all the Community Helpers small cards on the table and using a flashlight, pointed to each card for the students to name the job.

Teacher: Who's he?
Student: He's the farmer.

Sort the job small cards

Discuss with your students what these community helpers do and what they work with.  Sort the vocabulary cards into community helpers, town buildings, vehicles, hats and things. This can also be done using the big flashcards.

Show individual small cards tools and have the stduents guess who they belong to.

Point to different community helpers and have the students identify them. Match the community helpers small cards to their cutouts that I taped an opened clip behind.

·       Make community helpers stick puppets to use at the mini theater for many fun activities.
Ask questions:
Teacher: Where is the pilot?
Students: at the airport!
 

Take a look on how to use the mini theater for speaking!
