LIA ENGLISH COMPETITION (LEC) has come to an end. These are finalists who are going to compete on Saturday 3rd, 2016. We hope the winners are those who can perform the best and showing great attitudes as the winners. Congrats and see you all in the competition.
EC
stands for English for Children. It has 12 levels ranging from EC-1A/EC-1B to
EC-6A/EC-6B. These classes are designed for Elementary School children who
begin to learn basic English. The books we use are BACKPACK Series.
LIA has provided some skillful teachers who are experienced in
teaching EFL (English as a Foreign Language) to children of 10 to 13/14 years
old.
Looking for ideas
Here is a "once upon a time" in our class of EC-5. The
students were asked to tell a simple story about themselves. They were to
choose one of the following topics:
My hobbies
My pets
My favorite song (or music groups, or singers)
My favorite foods (or drinks)
My favorite place (a getaway, a hideout)
They are topics which are easy enough for them to elaborate. The
students were asked to write what they were about to present.
Busy preparing what to say
For example, when they choose the topic number two, they have to
make sure they have the name of the pets; they know the kinds of pets; how they
get the pets; how they take care of the pets; how they play around with the
pets, etc.
When they choose topic number 4, they have to prepare the names of
foods (or drinks); how they get them (by buying or having them cooked); how
they taste; etc.
The following are videos of the students telling one of those
topics mentioned above:
