expressing preferences

This is meant to be an interesting way to introduce would and wouldn't to elementary students who want to express themselves considering preferences. I hope it is handy and useful and if you like it, I will be glad. 

Would for preferences - Food & Drink

This is a nice power point presentation about food. The objective of this worksheet is to help stududents start talking about their food habbits, likes, dislikes and preferences regarding to food. You can use this power point with junior students to develop a class after teaching vocabulary, to prepare them for an oral test or to develop an oral test. In this power point teacher can start by giving students a number from one to twenty and then make a volunteer to take a number from a bag, the person with that number has to answer the question assigned and choose another number to continue with the activity.  

20 questions power point

Ppt fpr speaking activity. teacher asks the Ss "which one do you prefer" and Ss answer using the same structure

PREFERENCE

This presentation helps you to explain about preposition of place using pictures and words, you can find a red arrow if you prefer using this powerpoint directly and you can move it during your class. Then in the seconfd slide you can ask your students about the boxes and ball position. Finally you can make a short dictation or your students can make their own sentences.

Preposition of Place

The students will learn different shapes in a fun way. For elementary school preferly. This power point presentation will help to the teacher to introducing new vocabulary for the students.

Shapes

Students can express their preferrences for mostly compared people and things. You can use this ppt to practice speaking and ask students to explain their choices. You can practice "would prefer" or comparative adjectives.

Talk About Your Preferrences

it explains the use of would rather and gives exercises related to would rather and would prefer

would raher

I prepared this board to teach the alphabet and divided the letters by colors:

green - The easiest to learn (B C D E G P T V)

purple - Not so easy (F L M N S)

blue - a little harder, with similar sound (J K)

orange - confusing, vowels with the sound of two vowels (A I O U)

red - the hardest to learn (H Q R W X Y) 



Of course this concept may vary according to the students' first language, so you may want to change the square colors according to your experience with your classes.



Suggestion: Click on each icon below the letter to play the sound, from A to Z. Let your students listen each letter. Ask some of them to repeat after you play its sound. Go until the end of the alphabet. Then start with the green letters, play each one's sound and ask students to repeat (individually or in chorus - I prefer individual repetitions because some students may act as if they were repeating, just moving their lips). Do this to all the green card letters. Then point each letter and ask the students to say them aloud as you point them. Once you feel they memorized the letter, click on it and it'll vanish. Continue with the remaining letters until all the letters in the green group had vanished. Proceed to the next group of colored cards. Once all the letters from that group had vanished, go to the next group, from the easiest to the hardest.



I don't like to teach the letters from the beginning to the end, because some students memorize the letters in sequence, and to say one letter they have to remember all of them until they get to it.



If you have another way to use the board and teach the alphabet, just let me know. Thanks for downloading and have a nice day!

Christmas Lesson for A1

Children really like to talk about their life and their hobbies. They also like to discuss this with their friends. I made this presentition to find out about my students' favorite things. The second part of the presentation teaches students how to say what they prefer. I also ask them why. Hope this PPP helps you to get to know your students better.

What I like

It's a powerpoint of the story "Good job, Ben" from the Reading wonders book for Grade 1. I prefer using it during online classes, when it's hard to keep the students' attention and you just need pictures and the text appear on the screen.
