Language learning games




  • Bingo – Use numbers, letters of the alphabet, or word families: furniture, fruits, sports, jobs, colours, actions

  • Memory – Put 10 everyday objects on a tray. Say what they are in English, cover them. Can your child remember what's there and tell you in English? You can also use photos from magazines or newspapers of different word families.

  • Alphabet Game – Say a letter of the alphabet. Can your child find an animal, something to eat, etc. beginning with that letter? Or ask your child to write five words beginning with one letter.

  • Spy – Say that you are thinking of something beginning with a letter. Your child has to guess what it is. Example. «I spy with my little eye, something beginning with W.» «Is it water?» «No.» «Is it Window?» «Yes!»

  • Twenty Questions – Think of an object or animal. Your child has to ask questions to find out what it is. Example: «Is it big?» «No.» «Is it very small?» «No.» etc…

  • Definition Game – Give your child a definition, they have to guess what you're defining. Example: «It is very big and it has a long nose.» «Is it an elephant?» «Yes!»

  • Treasure Hunt – Your child has to find the things, or follow the clues you've written in English (21).

Conclusion

To sum up our work we just want to say that it is very important to teach English speaking to children from the very beginning of their learning. As we have said children are transplanted to a foreign environment and pick up the local language with apparent ease. Adults are also can be taught in spite of their age.


In our work there were described psychological peculiarities of children and adults, examined different techniques and methods of teaching speaking, revealed how to deal with mistakes in oral speech.
There is also a big sum of different activities, which are very useful for every English teacher, who works with elementary students, children and adults.
There were used materials from different English books for teachers, materials from Internet. They are theoretical and practical, such as descriptions of different games, lessons, activities.
There is a good help for teacher in putting marks to speakers, giving the appraisal to learners while their speech. We have known about adult’s attitude to teachers, their motivation sphere, and how children can be motivated to learn and to speak.
We have viewed such techniques as The Direct Method, which is based on questioning; The Communicative Approach, which is based on group work and work in pairs; The Topic Approach, which is based on giving topics to learners to make them speak; Penny Ur’s oral activities, which include brainstorming activities, organizing activities, and compound activities.
After such researching work we have been convinced of actuality of this theme because when a teacher comes to the class of beginners he does not know what to start with, how to work with those who know nothing about English. And a lot of researchers and pedagogies found and write different techniques for us, young specialists, to help us in working with beginners. Speaking is important and difficult skill, which should be learned how to teach it to learners at the elementary stage of English teaching.
