Title: Outdoor Activity Ideas
Body: Whether the cold weather has you dreaming of spring, or you're lucky enough to be in a warm place, these ideas for outdoor language practice might be useful soon. ---- The fire department has always been a wonderful learning experience and a great opportunity for vocabulary. However, since you are in Brazil, and the national language is different, walking through gardens, beaches and parks would be a great experience for the students. I recommend that you make these trips beforehand and write up vocabularly cards or sheets to help them with the experience. Wald, B. Outdoor activities. Teachers of English to speakers of other languages electronic list. TESL-L@CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU (31 Dec. 2005). ---- here are a few ideas: - vocabulary games with balls - vocabulary games where everyone sits in a large circle on the ground clapping a rhythm - racing-type games with pairs of students, one of whom is giving instructions to the other (perhaps blindfolded) to complete a set of tasks or overcome some obstacles - treasure-hunt activities- either of a nature variety or with items the teacher has planted on the school grounds - group-organizing/task activities like building a playhouse for the pre-schoolers or painting a mural on a side wall - lessons in English in an physical activity like rock-wall climbing, Tai Chi, etc. Spelleri, M.
