Puppet Conversation TEFL, TESOL, CELTA, TESL, EFL, ESL Game: Hand puppets really liven up a classroom,
especially for young learners who are shy when talking to the T. You’ll
probably find that some Ss prefer talking to the puppet than to you! Fun
puppet characters (such as Sesame Street’s Cookie Monster) that talk to
Ss can produce unexpected results. I always use Cookie Monster at the
beginning of my young classes. Here’s what I do Game: 1. Cookie Monster
is sleeping in a bag. Each S has to shout “Wake up Cookie Monster!” into
the bag. Cookie Monster only wakes up when the whole class shout together
into the bag. 2. Cookie Monster says hello to each S and asks them questions
(their names, how they are, how old they are, etc.). Ss reply and asks
Cookie Monster the same question. 3. Ss and Cookie Monster sing the ‘Hello
Song together. 4. Cookie Monster says goodbye to each S individually and
then goes back to sleep in the bag. The actual lesson can now start.
S = Student | Ss = Students | T = Teacher
