BACK TO INDEX 6
Eddies puppet
Hand out an enlarged photocopy of Eddie and a drinking straw to each child.
Ask your pupils to colour and decorate Eddie as they wish.
Help them to cut out and stick it on the drinking straw with a bit of Blu - Tack.

You can use masks or puppets to introduce new vocabulary, teach your students
songs and chants, give instructions and motivate them !

Eddies song (Tune: This is the way...)

This is my friend. Hello, hello !
Hello, hello. Hello, hello !
This is Eddie, the dinosaur .
Say hello to him !

BACK TO INDEX 7
 Once your students have learnt the names of Eddie and his friends, you can give them
the following strip cartoons. The children will be able to know how Eddie met his friends
for the first time.

BACK TO INDEX 8
BACK TO INDEX 9
BACK TO INDEX 10
 These strip cartoons will give you and your students opportunities to

*practise reading comprehension

*recycle language in a new context
*teach, consolidate or revise basic structures as these ones

Whats this/that ? My name is...

Its a ... Im ...

Is this/that a ...? Whos this ?

Yes, it is. / No, it isnt. Its ...

How are you ? Hes ...

Im ..., thanks. His name is ...

You can also ask your children to :

* act them out

* invent a song to greet their new friends
* write a story about those first meetings
* colour the pictures

You will be able to teach, revise or practise greetings if you

give your students this strip cartoon

BACK TO INDEX 11
BACK TO INDEX 12
Some new activities
Puzzles
* Give each child a copy of this exercise
Can you find these words ?

HELLO - HI - GOODBYE - GOOD- MORNING - AFTERNOON - EVENING

NIGHT - FAREWELL -
SO LONG - DAY - MIDNIGHT - MIDDAY - NOON - GREETING

They will have to find the hidden words.

Dont forget to tell the children that the words may be up, down,
forward,backward or diagonal.

* Give your children a copy of this grid

HE NOON GOOD NING TER NING GHT

MOR LLO AF EVE BYE NI HI

Your students will have to find some greeting - words and write them in the correct form.

BACK TO INDEX 13
And Now... Its time to play!
Why dont you try a Bingo ?
Your students will have a great time !
Its a short activity , but ideal for the last minutes of your lessons.
(See Bingo Cards and Dominoes - Section)
Before giving the cards to your students, divide the class into groups or pairs.

Who am I ? (for 5 - 7 year-old children)

The children work in pairs to represent a character.
Each pair mime the character.
The one who guesses the name of the character is awarded a point.

Introducing a friend (for 8 - 12 year-old children)

Divide the class into pairs. Itd be better to join students who dont usually get together.
Each pair will have to exchange personal information , likes and dislikes, expectations, etc.
After that, every child will have to introduce his/her partner instead of him/herself.

BACK TO INDEX 14
Moving on...
Let your students know more information about Eddie and his friends.

Show them the following strip cartoons. Let the children act them out.

BACK TO INDEX 15
BACK TO INDEX 16
Give your students this worksheet.

Write sentences as in the example

This is Paul .
Hes from Argentina so he is Argentine.
Hes eight years old.

PETER / CANADA / 8

SAM / ITALY / 7

JENNY / ARGENTINA / 9

The children can use Pauls description as a model.

Make the activity more difficult by adding new characters and changing the task.

BACK TO INDEX 17
Complete using these words

am - Peter - Italian - Im - my - baby

Canada - name - am - years - is - from

old - sister - years - old - Argentinian - friend

Hello ! My name ...... Sam.

After doing some written exercises , your students will love to act out some dialogues !

BACK TO INDEX 18
Divide the class into pairs, A and B.
Give A and B roles from the following dialogues.
Then let the children act them out.

Student A : - Hello
Student B : - Hi !
Student A : - Whats your name ?
Student B : - Alan.
Student A : - Whats your surname ?
Student B : - Scott.

Student A : - Hello !
Student B : - Hi .

Student A : - Im from the U.S.A.
Student B : - Oh, youre American.
Student A : - Yes, I am. What about you ?
Student B : - Im English . Im from Brighton, in the south of England.

Variations: - Ask your students to swap roles and repeat the activity.
- Ask your students to write more dialogues following the ones youve given them
as examples.

BACK TO INDEX 19
 After teaching your students the names of different countries and nationalities, you can give
them the possibility to play with those new words. This is very good for memory retention.

Note: - Theres a complete list of countries and nationalities in the Vocabulary Bank.

To start a new topic with a strip cartoon is always a good idea. Children will get new information
about Eddie and his friends. They will also be able to :

* colour the pictures

* read the conversations and act them out
* invent new dialogues
* suggest possible headlines.

BACK TO INDEX 20
Useful Ideas
Give your students a copy of the following puzzle

They will have to find 5 countries and 5 nationalities. The words may be down, up, backward
or forward.
After doing that, you can also ask your students to write sentences, a story or a conversation
using those words.

Guess the Nationalities

For those students who always finish before the others, you can give them a new challenge:
to find the nationalities by writing the letters in the correct order.

I-B-A-I-R-Z-L-A-N .......................................................................................................

P-I-S-A-S-N-H .......................................................................................................

E-M-N-A-R- G .......................................................................................................

A-R-I-E-A-G-T-N-N-I-N .......................................................................................................

N-I-H-E-G-L-S .......................................................................................................

BACK TO INDEX 21
 If your students like working in groups, you will be able to organize 3 mini-competitions

Write the missing vowels

Divide the class into 5 groups.
Give each group one of these cards.

BR_Z_L _NGL_ND

Students have to write the missing vowels of the countries written on the cards.
The group that completes the words first is the winner.

BACK TO INDEX 22
Whats missing ?
Divide the class into groups. Make sure each group has one of these cards.

Complete the nationalities with

CH - ISH - IAN - ESE - AN - SS

ITAL ......................................... SCOTT....................................

Ask the children to write the endings of the nationalities.

The team that finishes first is the winner.

BACK TO INDEX 23
Find 5 countries
Divide the class into 4 groups.
Give each group one of these cards:

Students have to find the names of 5 countries and write them in the correct form .
The group that writes the words first is the winner.

BACK TO INDEX 24
Why dont you try playing Dominoes ?
Divide the class into pairs or groups of four.
Give each student 7 dominoes. The remaining
ones are left face down on one side of the
table.
After the first word has been placed, the
following player has to locate another word
next to it. There must be some sort of
connection between the 2 words (e.g. country/
nationality)
The game continues with each child laying
down a domino in turns. If one of the children
cannot lay down a domino, he/she must take
another one from the remaining pack on the
table and wait until their next turn before laying
another domino.
The winner is the first child to use up all the
dominoes in his/her hand.

Higher - level children can prepare dominoes by drawing and colouring the flags from
different countries.
Dont forget to award the winners. (You can use Eddies cards : See Cards - Section)

BACK TO INDEX 25
Some useful ideas to practise vocabulary related to FEELINGS
Students need to learn the lexis of the language. They have to learn the meaning of
the words and how they are used.
After your students have learnt new words, they will need opportunities to become
more familiar with them.
There are many simple vocabulary activities you can give your students.

The following ones are some examples:

- Filling in blanks/gaps in sentences (You can make it more challenging if they

..have to choose between different alternatives).
- Filling in crosswords/grids/diagrams.

- Matching pictures with words.

- Matching parts of words with other parts.
- Matching sets of related words.

- Classifying items into lists.

- Memory games.

Start the class by showing these pictures to your students.

Ask the children to identify each card by saying: You could also ask your class to make cards for
Happy / Sad / Angry / Sleepy new words (e.g. tired - hungry - thirsty)

BACK TO INDEX 26
After that, you can give each child this exercise to complete:

Complete using these words:

HAPPY - SLEEPY - SAD - ANGRY

Im ........................... Im ...........................

Im ........................... Im ...........................

Then you can practise the new words using pictures of Eddies friends.

Give each child a copy of this exercise. Theyll have to answer some questions.

Look at the picture and answer:

1- Is Paul sad ?
2- How is he ?
3- Is Jenny happy ?
4- How is Mat ?
5- Is the cat happy or sad ?

BACK TO INDEX 27
You can also ask your students to draw pictures or write sentences answering the following questions:

What do you like doing ?

What dont you like doing ?

There are some games that can be used to become more familiar with the new vocabulary.

Dancing feeling:
- Choose one child to be the leader.
- Play a music - cassette.
- The leader walks around and whispers in each childs ear one of the feelings - words (happy/
..angry/sad/tired/surprised...).
- Then each child acts out that feeling to the music.
- When all the children are in motion, stop the music. They freeze where they are.
- Ask several children to tell the group their feeling.
- Choose a new leader and play again

Dont forget what Ive said:

- The teacher says a feeling-word or a sentence using that word.
- A pupil repeats that word or sentence and adds one more.

E.g. - Teacher: happy

- Pupil 1: happy, sad
- Pupil 2: happy, sad, angry
- Pupil 3: happy,sad,angry,tired

- When somebody cant remember the sequence, he or she has to draw a picture on the
..board. If the class guesses what it is, that pupil goes on playing.
- Check that they have understood what to do.
- Start playing with the whole class.

BACK TO INDEX 28
Eddies game
Materials Needed: dice , coloured counters.
The rules of the game are very simple , but it
may be easier to explain by gathering pupils
around one board and demostrating the game.
Ideally the game should be played in pairs.
Each pair needs a dice and two coloured
counters. Players take it in turns to throw the
dice and move around the board.
When they land on an orange bubble they
must go ahead three bubbles.
When they land on a yellow bubble they must
read the phrase next to it (Im happy) and
repeat it three times as fast as possible.
BACK TO INDEX 29
When they land on a green bubble (Eddies
one) they must go ahead two bubbles.
When they land on a red bubble they must
read the phrase next to it (Im sad) and go
back to the START .
Players need not throw the exact number to
land on bubble number 10. The winner is
the first player who reaches the last bubble.
Encourage pupils to use English as they play.
They should count in English, use phrases
such as My/Your turn. In addition ask pupils
questions about the game as you monitor their
progress (Whose turn is it?, How many ?).
BACK TO INDEX 30
How about practising vocabulary related to the WEATHER?
Start the topic by showing your students these pictures:

Now ask the children to say what the weather You can also ask them to:
is like in each picture. - describe the pictures and colour them,
- say what the people are doing, and
- invent some short stories.

BACK TO INDEX 31
 Then you can work with these strip cartoons:

BACK TO INDEX 32
Ask your children to:
- read the conversations,
- act them out,
- colour the pictures and
- answer questions about them.

After that, you can ask your students to match pictures with words.

BACK TO INDEX 33
Whats the weather like?
Match using different colours

SUNNY

SNOWY

CLOUDY

RAINY

WINDY

HOT

COLD

BACK TO INDEX 34
 If your students are very young you can teach them some songs:
- The happy sun
- The cloud is sad
- Eddies Rap

Note: See section Songs

You can also ask your students to find hidden words.

Divide the class into pairs or groups of three.

Give each group one copy of this worksheet.

The Weather
Can you find these words ?

COOL - COLD - CLOUDY - RAINY - SUNNY

WET - DRY - STORMY - SNOWY - HOT

D R Y B I N D R A G B S U B B Y U N M O

Students have to find the words. They may be up, down, forward,backward or diagonal.

You can set a time limit , and tell your students that the first group to find all
the words wins.

BACK TO INDEX 35
Why dont you try one of these activities?
1) Give each student a copy of the grid.
Find six words and write them:

HO SUN LD UDY WIN INY

CO CLO T NY RA DY

They have to find 6 words related to the weather. Students can also illustrate them.

2) Sequences:
Students are given different pictures.
They have to write sentences about them.

BACK TO INDEX 36
 For higher levels: - ask your students to create a story. (You can give them some
guiding questions)

Remember: - Free writing is developed very slowly !

- Grammar is important but not initially !

- Students have to feel free to make mistakes !

- Encourage them to write !

Variations : - Children can colour the pictures.

- You can give them some words to be used.

- Students can be asked to write the headline.

Important : - While the children are working, go round the class to help them
with the activity.

BACK TO INDEX 37
3) Finally, you can give this puzzle. Your students will love the challenge !
Complete using these words:

COLD - SUNNY - STORMY

CLOUDY - RAINY - HOT - WINDY

BACK TO INDEX 50
Whats your favourite colour?
Give each child a circle of paper. Ask them to
choose their favourite colour and to colour the
paper in.
As each child finishes they should bring their
coloured circle to you.
Telephone game!
Organise the pupils into pairs and give a small
piece of paper to each child.
Write the numbers from one to nine on the
board.
Each pair should invent and write a phone
number on the pieces of paper using only the
numbers written on the board.
Check to make sure the children understand
that they will write the same phone number in
their pairs.
Whats the number on the paper?
Write a number from 1 to 10 on a piece of
paper.
Pupils have to try and guess which number
you have written.
Each pupil says a number which is written
on the board with their names.
Lemon
Choose a number you want to forbid.
Ask your pupils to start counting.
Each time a pupil has to say the forbidden
number or a multiple of it, the word LEMON
must be said instead.
E.g. 1, 2, 3, 4, lemon, 6, 7, 8, 9, lemon, 11,
Numbers and Colours
Divide the class into groups of 3 children and
make sure each group has a set of picture
cards. (See Cards Section for them)
One child in each group is the dealer. He gives
6 cards to each person in the group. The
remaining cards are left face down in the
middle of the table.
All players will look at their cards and try to
match the written numbers with the
corresponding number of stars. Every
BACK TO INDEX 51
Stick the coloured papers in columns on a
bristolboard, so that it is clear which is the
most popular colour.
Hang the poster on the wall.
When they have finished, take one of the
pieces of paper from each pair. The pupils
keep the other.
Choose one of the papers at random. Act as
if you are holding a phone to your ear and
dial as you say the phone number alound.
The children with the phone number should
put their hands to their ears as if talking on
the phone and say HELLO.
Continue with the other papers repeating
some numbers.
The winner is the pupil whose number
comes closest to the number you have
written on the reverse of the board.
12, 13, 14, lemon.... (5 = lemon)
The next child then continues counting from
the next number.
When the children forget to say LEMON get
them to stand up and turn around.
matched pair of cards will be placed face up in
front of the player.
Each player will take on acard from the top of the
remaining pack. If he/she can make more pairs,
they must be placed face up on the table.
The players continue picking one card up in
turns and laying down any matched cards,
until there are no more cards left on the table.
The winner is the person with the most
matched pairs.
Numbers and Colours (2)
Divide the class into groups of four. Distribute
12 cards at random to each group. (See
Cards Section)
Each group makes as many matches as
possible. The matches must be correct and
logical (a card with the balloons and a card
with Paul holding the corresponding number).
(It is sometimes possible for a group not to
make any matches initially, although that is
rare).
When a group has made all its matches and
the students think they are correct, the game
stops. One of the children from this group
reads out the matches (e.g. Eddie has got 3
yellow balloons and Paul is holding number
3 which is yellow, too).
The other groups vote to accept or reject each
match if it is not logical.
If all matches are accepted, the game is over
and that team wins. If some matches are
rejected, the game continues until another
group thinks it has made all its matches and
they are accepted.

Finally you can work with some strip-cartoons. They will be useful to teach how to
say the numbers when you talk about your age or phone number. You can also ask
your students to write or act out new conversations using the given ones as models.
Note: - if you are short of time, ask your pupils to colour the drawings in their free
time.

BACK TO INDEX 52
 Students tend to forget how to say the letters of the English Alphabet. Thats why
English and Fun offers you this set of activities and ideas.

Give your students the following strip-cartoons. Theyll be useful if you want to show your
pupils the importance of the alphabet in some communicative situations.

After reading, colouring and acting them out, you can play a Spelling Competition with your
students.

BACK TO INDEX 53
Personal Dictionaries
Personal Dictionaries give the children a sense of progress and help them to identify their
growing vocabulary bank.
Every time you teach a new word, your students will have to copy it and write its meaning. The
way they do it , depends on their age and cognitive development.
Look at some examples:

Apple
Fruit. I like red apples.

Round fruit with firm juicy flesh and skin that is green or red.

bananas peaches grapes

oranges FRUIT apples

plums watermelon strawberry

Boy Run

Tom is a boy. Hes not a girl. ( boy = girl ) move with quick steps, faster than when
walking.
male child up to the age of 17 or 18 . rush / race / hurry ...

Table Short

The glasses are on the table opposite of long / tall

piece of furniture consisting of a flat top measuring little from end to end in space
with four supports (called legs) or time
below the average height.

Some games
The hats game
Materials needed : - a hat , letter cards (see Cards Section for them), tape and a cassette.
Put the letters of the Alphabet in the hat.
Tell your students to sit on a ring while you choose some music for the game.
Give the hat with the letters to one of the children.
Play the music. When the music is on, students start passing the hat round (if the music is
familiar to them, they can sing the song while playing).
When the music stops, the one who has the hat in his/her hands must pick a card up with his/
her eyes closed.
When he/she opens them, he/she must identify the letter and say a word beginning with it.
Take that card out of the game and repeat the procedure many times until there are no more
letters in the hat .

A traditional and funny game: Hangman

Draw a blank line on the board to represent each letter of a word (e.g.: for the word house, you
write - - - - - )
Students start to call out letters. If a letter belongs to the word, write it on the appropiate blank
line; if it doesnt , draw one part of the Hangman picture. Students will have to guess the
missing letters in the word before you have drawn the ten lines to complete the Hangman.
You can also let your students choose a word and draw the blank lines and the Hangman on
the board.

Team Spelling game

Divide the class into 2 groups.
Show a picture to the class and ask one of the pupils to spell it.
If the pupil can spell it, his/her team is awarded a point.
If the pupil cannot do it correctly, the other team has the chance to spell it and be awarded a
bonus point.

Funny cards
Divide the class into small groups.
Put the cards into a bag. Each group must take out 10 cards at random.(See Cards-Section
for them)
They will have to form words using the letters. Eddies card can be used as a joker.
You can also ask your students to write sentences using the formed words , or form words
related to the topic/unit .
Give them enough time to finish the task.
Then, ask your students to read the words they could form (or sentences) and award a point
for every word/sentence correctly formed.

BACK TO INDEX 55
Posters / Flashcards
Posters and flashcards are useful visual resources. We offer you a lot of pictures with their
initial letters . They can be displayed on the walls. Theyll let you develop different kind of
activities. (See Flashcards and Posters- Section for them).

Making up Words
Materials needed:
-Letters of the Alphabet Cards.
-Pictures of Eddie to use as jokers (see Eddies cards)

Divide the class into groups.

Each group will have to pick up 10 cards at random.
Students will have to make up as many words as possible using the letters in their cards.
(If possible students will try to make up sentences with those words).
Teachers should set a limit of time before beginning to play.
Once the assigned time has finished each group will show the others their work.
The group with the most words is the winner.

BACK TO INDEX 56
 To start a new unit by means of a game is a good idea.
Thats why English & Fun recommends introducing the theme
by showing your students flashcards of classroom objects and then playing
Good Memory.

While you are showing the pictures to the children you can ask them questions
about their own classroom objects. E.g: What colour is your ruler? / Is it long/
short? Or you can also give them some commands: Raise your left hand if you
have a green ruler / Stand up the ones who have a red pen / Clap your hands if
you have a red and blue rubber.

Good Memory:
Divide the class into two groups
Place a number of pictures on the blackboard and tell your students that they have to memorize
all of them.
Choose a volunteer from one of the teams and invite him/her to go out and wait outside until his/
her partners call him/her back.
A volunteer from the other team hide one of the pictures.
When the one who was outside enters the classroom, he/she has to guess which picture is
missing.
Repeat this procedure many times. The winner is the team that gets more points.

BACK TO INDEX 57
 You can also introduce this unit by doing the exercise: Sharing Experiences

BACK TO INDEX 58
Sharing Experiences:
Ask your students to bring photographs of their school (if they dont have any, tell them to draw
it). In small groups they will share different experiences and situations related to their
photographs. Once they have exchanged information, each group can show the others the
pictures and retell what they have been talking about.
Its essential that the teacher guides the students through the comprehension of the different
contents that may arise from the students experiences.

If you want to revise the structures Whats this? / Its/ Is this a? here you have the
strip cartoon on page 60.

Guessing game
After reading the comic you can play a Guessing Game:
Divide the class into 2 or more groups.
A volunteer gets a flashcard, which he/she cant show to the others.
The rest of the class will have to guess which picture he/she has got in his/her hands and its
colour by asking questions such as: Is it a..? / Is it (colour)?
The one who has the flashcard can only answer Yes or No or Yes, it is / No, it isnt.
The winner is the team that gets more points.

BACK TO INDEX 59
BACK TO INDEX 60
 You can also give your students the following exercise to practise the structure Is
this a?

Is this a...?

Is this a ruler?
Yes, it is.

Is this a pencil?
No, it isnt. Its a chair.

chair?

BACK TO INDEX 61
 If you want to revise the possessive case and pronouns, here you have the following
strip cartoon. After reading it you can ask your students to think about a possible
title for the story. This is a good opportunity to remind your students to write their
names on their school objects.

To revise possession you can give your students the following picture and ask
them to make statements expressing what each of the characters has got, e.g:
Eddie has got a rubber

BACK TO INDEX 62
 In the following exercise students have to colour the school objects and then
complete the sentences with the colours they have chosen.

 You can give the following picture to your students for a dictation. You can revise
colours, prepositions, numbers, etc. Here we give you some ideas:

Colour two books green and other two red.

Draw a rubber under a chair.
Draw a ruler under a table.
Draw four pencil boxes on a table.
Colour the window brown.
Draw a schoolbag between the tables and draw a pencil in it.

You can also ask your students to complete the picture by drawing other
things that they can find in their classroom.

objects. Ask your students to name each object
before you put it in a bag. Divide the class into
two teams, A and B. Put your hand in the bag and
hold one of the objects but dont show it to the
students. Ask team A What is it? Team A is allowed
to answer two times before the chance is passed
to team B. If the team guesses incorrectly, put the
object back and choose another one. When a
team guesses correctly, give the object to the
team. The winner is the group with the most
objects at the end. Repeat the procedure two or
three times and then you can let one of the
students have the bag.

Game: Whose is this?

Divide the class into two groups, A and B. Ask each team to have ten school objects unseen by the

 Games should have an aim and purpose. They should be fun for children.
You can use them to:

- develop a positive classroom atmosphere

- consolidate and reinforce language structures and lexis
- evaluate the childrens performance.

Dominoes
Dominoes is a combinative game. Your students can combine: shapes colours sizes and
numbers.They can also identify similarities and differences (e.g.: countries-nationalities).

English and Fun suggests that you should ask your students to stick each domino onto card
before cutting them out.

Encourage the children to give a description of each domino each time they must lay down one.

How to play ???

- Divide the class into pairs or groups of four.

- Give each student 7 dominoes. The remaining ones are left face down on one side of the table.

- After the first picture or word has been placed, the game is continued by the next player putting
another picture or word next to it. There must be a connection of some sort that links the two words or
pictures (e.g.: Country Nationality).

- The game continues with each child laying down a domino in turn. If one of the children cannot lay
down a domino he/she must take another one from the remaining pack on the table and wait until their
next turn before laying down another domino.

- The winner is the first child to use up all the dominoes in his/her hand.
