Label It TEFL, TESOL, CELTA, TESL, EFL, ESL Game: This works well with newcomers of all ages who need
an introduction to basic vocabulary. As long as the learns are able to
identify beginning letter sounds, they should be able to do this activity.
To familiarize my students with names of objects found in the classroom,
I label everything with an index card that has the item’s name on it.
Then I have them repeat what I read as they point to the item. The next
day, I remove the cards and go through them one at a time and we place
them on the correct item together. The third day, I let them label whatever
they can on their own . I continue this for a few days. When they are
able to independently label most of the items, I surprise them by having
them labeled incorrectly. Then they have to straighten out the mess. You
can adapt this to any noun-based vocabulary list (e.g. types of foods,
body parts, parts of a room in a house , animals, etc.) that you can post
pictures of. Your website has amazing flashcards and pictures that can
be printed out and used for this.
