Because children... Have a short concentration span Learn fast and forget even faster Are learning social skills Learn first by listening and speaking You should... Limit activities to a maximum of 20 minutes Constantly revise and recycle language Provide activities that develop abilities to cooperate/share Focus on oral skills TEACHING CHILDREN
Because children... Have lots of energy and are sometimes clumsy Cannot comprehend abstractions Cannot analyze language Have a natural instinct for playing and fun You should... Let them move! (TPR) Use concrete references (realia/cards) Use meaningful and memorable contexts and teach grammar implicitly Provide activities that are fun!
