Activities to use in small classes
Many teachers agree that teaching a small class rather than a large class comes with many benefits. But a teacher can come across several problems in small classes too.
For example, activities finish quickly and pupils may become bored working with the same pairs.
So, today we are going to present you some of the activities which can help you with your small-class teaching.
Storytelling. Have your students tell stories from their own lives. For this, you may also take them some special place such as a park or a coffe shop.
Chain writing. Each student writes one sentence on a piece of paper and passes it on untill each story is complete.
Role-playing. Give students lots of opportunity to use the language they are learning in mock-style everyday settings.
Board games. Small groups are great for playing board games such as word up card games, they are a great way for students to practice asking questions. Make sure that they speak in English during the activity.
Films. Incorporate a film into your class lessons. This can be done at all levels with great success, especially in a small class. Stop the film often in order to check comprehension and keep students focused.
Class Excursions. Take advantage of the class size, by getting out of the school as often as possible. You may choose where to visit according to the topic of the lesson.
Take time to find out whether or not students are happy with the class. Ask for suggestions regarding activities they want to do or skills they would like to improve.
