A selection of English ESL the uk printables

For this activity, you should show the students the following two short videos;

The Christmas Truce (approx 3:30mins long) -  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWF2JBb1bvM

The Man on the Moon (approx 2mins long) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wuz2ILq4UeA 

While they watch them, they should make notes on their worksheets about the story, their feelings, and what they think the message or moral of the story is. After watching the videos, the students can use their notes to have a discussion as a class.



I printed the worksheets two to an A4 page making them A5 size each.



The first video, The Christmas Truce, is a true story based in the trenches of World War 1. There are no violent scenes and it is both suitable for children and truly heartwarming. It has previously been shown on UK television in the daytime. I still suggest that you watch it before showing it to young children to make sure you are happy with the content.
