THE BODY

Working the body is important not only for the specific vocabulary that it gives but also for the development of the self-knowledge. 

Today we want to share with you different activities to work this subject in your ESL class.

First of all, it is important to know what we are talking about. We think that showing a video, for example, is a good idea. This one could be interesting and enjoyable for the young learners.

Then, we can reinforce this learning with some activities using for example the JClic tool. If you want to work with materials created by yourself, you will have to download the tool to your computer. However, there are a lot of activities have already done available in the library of the web (http://clic.xtec.cat/db/listact_en.jsp).

For example, this one could be a good one although some of the activities that it includes require a higher level of English.

We have already done one project for this subject with JClic but you will only be able to open it if you have downloaded the JClic Author to your computer. This is the link to show this content:

With this kind of tools, the teacher can prepare different and more personalized activities, making sure that all the English skills are being worked.

Finally, this is a game that will show if the students recognised the words learned.

And we finish with it.
