welcome to the OnDemand teacher training

play00:06

program in this video we will focus on

play00:11

children as language Learners developing

play00:14

children's language and learning

play00:17

strategies developing thinking skills

play00:20

developing communication skills also in

play00:24

this lesson we will talk about what

play00:26

makes Young Learners different from

play00:29

older language Learners as well as the

play00:32

benefits of introducing children to

play00:39

English now what are the characteristics

play00:43

of children as language

play00:46

Learners think about children you know

play00:51

what are they like just think a

play00:57

moment we Define children here as 6 to

play01:02

12 year

play01:04

olds these are considered the developing

play01:08

ages ages

play01:11

where they develop the most physically

play01:15

emotionally and cognitively as students

play01:19

and as people learning a language

play01:23

English in this case will become a large

play01:27

part of development and will be learned

play01:30

with many basic

play01:32

functions while this can vary from

play01:37

student to student there's a focus on

play01:40

fun and engaging

play01:43

activities less attached to desks or

play01:46

tables often happening on the

play01:50

floor this will also encourage students

play01:54

to take interest in the English they

play01:56

hear on TV when playing video games

play02:00

and from other English speakers and

play02:04

Learners I'm sure you can think of some

play02:07

other situations where they might hear

play02:11

English as

play02:14

well another thing learning English does

play02:18

for children is to learn about the four

play02:22

C's that's

play02:24

communication collaboration critical

play02:27

thinking and cre

play02:30

creativity all of these are essential

play02:34

for their personal and social

play02:38

development in this way they can become

play02:41

more confident speakers work well with

play02:46

others in groups or in pairs in and

play02:50

outside of class engage more intensely

play02:55

with puzzles and games and develop their

play02:58

fine motor skills necessary for creating

play03:03

Quality

play03:08

Art one place this is often applied and

play03:13

discovered is in PL classes or content

play03:19

integrated or that's content and

play03:22

language integrated learning

play03:25

classes in K classes students study

play03:30

subjects like science and social studies

play03:33

in

play03:34

English this gives them a chance to both

play03:39

practice what they know in English and

play03:43

even learn something new in

play03:47

English understanding new information in

play03:50

the language they're

play03:53

studying students may have the

play03:55

opportunity to learn that animals like w

play03:59

b s and dolphins are

play04:02

mammals which they may not yet have

play04:05

learned in a school class presented in

play04:08

their first language for

play04:14

example with these ages it's important

play04:18

to use games and songs in the classroom

play04:23

moving and drawing games like charades

play04:26

or Pictionary will keep students engaged

play04:30

and excited as well as help them make

play04:33

connections with their bodies to the

play04:36

language making the class content easier

play04:39

to remember I'm sure you're familiar

play04:42

with the game charades yes where someone

play04:46

will do a gesture for example

play04:51

like this without using any words and

play04:56

they will have to then guess what that

play05:00

activity is what the gesture represents

play05:02

yes charades or Pictionary where you

play05:06

will draw a picture of something and

play05:10

again they will have to guess what the

play05:13

picture represents so using games like

play05:16

this is very helpful for the

play05:20

students uh also games and activities

play05:24

that allow them to use their

play05:26

imaginations like solving a problem

play05:29

about playing pretend will be enjoyable

play05:33

pleasurable and allow them to feel that

play05:35

they've left the classroom environment

play05:39

without actually leaving it this could

play05:43

be anything from pretending to drive

play05:46

around the classroom to pretending to

play05:49

dive in the ocean to learn about sea

play05:53

creatures

play06:00

studying English Young Learners get the

play06:03

chance to learn through facial

play06:06

expressions gestures and in

play06:10

nation discovering emotion and

play06:13

understanding the body language often in

play06:16

English as well as the use of hands will

play06:19

open a door to understanding a great

play06:24

deal of English before ever even

play06:28

learning a complete

play06:31

sentence all of this could lead students

play06:36

down the path of chunking or using

play06:40

phrases of frequency to make connections

play06:44

to language the I feel of I feel sad or

play06:51

I feel happy is kept to talk about

play06:54

emotion while the can I can I borrow an

play06:59

eraser or can I eat a snack is used to

play07:04

ask if something is

play07:11

okay it's important to remember that not

play07:16

all children have the same language

play07:19

learning

play07:21

preferences some while some children may

play07:25

learn better through connecting pictures

play07:29

with words others may prefer learning

play07:33

language through interactions and

play07:36

movement likewise some students may

play07:39

prefer much peace and quiet in the

play07:42

classroom in order to keep

play07:45

focus with this it's important to have a

play07:50

wide range of activity options as

play07:55

tools with Young Learners your classroom

play07:58

activities should vary to cover as many

play08:03

of these learning preferences as

play08:07

possible the students may even discover

play08:10

a new preference in this way uh a

play08:13

student who in the past liked to learn

play08:18

with a lot of activities and gestures

play08:22

May learn to like reading or listening

play08:26

or speaking through use of many

play08:30

different types of activities in your

play08:38

classrooms hey let's go on our next

play08:42

topic is developing children's learning

play08:50

strategies so how can we help children

play08:55

develop their learning strategies

play08:57

through language learning

play09:05

it's important to always make the reason

play09:10

for your activities clear students will

play09:14

be more interested in using the

play09:17

activities English outside of the

play09:20

classroom if they understand the

play09:23

reason this will also help motivate the

play09:27

students to want to keep

play09:30

learning when there is less

play09:34

confusion less often students will feel

play09:38

more comfortable in the

play09:40

classroom motivation can also come from

play09:44

finishing goals or getting rewards from

play09:48

doing

play09:49

well making children feel comfortable

play09:53

learning in the classroom is one of the

play09:56

biggest

play09:58

motivators take taking notes on students

play10:01

their learning strategies likes dislikes

play10:05

interests and other things can help

play10:08

teachers make lessons that are more

play10:11

exciting for

play10:14

students I sure you've used this in some

play10:17

of your other classes as well one

play10:21

example for myself is I had some

play10:24

students who really liked the K-Pop

play10:26

group La seraphin so for my my English

play10:29

lessons I used some of their songs and

play10:33

some of the words from their songs as

play10:35

part of the English lesson because I

play10:38

knew my students liked that group I

play10:43

could make a lesson more interesting for

play10:45

them by adding that into my

play10:51

lessons learning

play10:54

strategies uh teachers can use many

play10:58

different plans in the classroom uh here

play11:02

are some plans that help students make

play11:05

their own learning

play11:09

strategies in planning learning students

play11:12

can choose which student will do which

play11:16

job in an activity about drawing a farm

play11:21

one student can draw a house one student

play11:24

can draw the animals and one student can

play11:27

color the picture

play11:30

with learning objectives students can

play11:34

make their own goals for the class day

play11:37

or class

play11:39

year a student can say that they want to

play11:43

learn 10 new animal names in English or

play11:48

use only complete sentences when they

play11:52

speak to their

play11:53

classmates this teaches them personal

play11:57

responsibility

play12:03

with selfassessment or self testing

play12:07

students can talk about the good and bad

play12:11

about their own

play12:13

performance a teacher can ask what do

play12:16

you think you did well and the student

play12:19

can reply I liked my pronunciation and

play12:23

gestures for

play12:25

example also a teacher can ask a student

play12:29

what do you think you need to focus on

play12:32

more and the student can reply with I

play12:36

think I need to practice my

play12:38

vocabulary for

play12:40

example with self Corrections students

play12:45

can change their answers to the correct

play12:49

answers in this way the teacher gives

play12:52

the student one more chance to speak

play12:56

correctly a student can say I have two

play13:01

car the teacher can say two

play13:04

car so the student can make a

play13:08

self-correction ah two

play13:11

cars good job teaching the students to

play13:15

help themselves is an important tool in

play13:19

and out of the

play13:27

classroom one more Str stry is plan do

play13:33

review with plan do review students use

play13:39

these three steps for

play13:42

activities for example for making crafts

play13:46

the

play13:47

students can be asked what materials do

play13:51

you think you need so they can think

play13:54

about what to plan for the class we do

play13:59

is for the activity itself say crafting

play14:04

the object and the review reminds

play14:08

students to think about the activity why

play14:13

the activity was important and to

play14:16

remember that they had

play14:20

fun one more strategy is

play14:24

kwl

play14:25

or no want learn

play14:30

uh the no want learn method allows the

play14:34

teacher to ask the students to

play14:36

brainstorm or think about the topic the

play14:40

students can say what they know already

play14:44

about the topic they can also say what

play14:48

they want to learn about the topic at

play14:51

the end the teacher can ask the students

play14:54

what they learned in the

play14:57

activity four for example the topic can

play15:00

be about

play15:01

turtles many students may know that

play15:04

turtles have a

play15:06

shell the students may say that they

play15:08

want to learn about what turtles eat

play15:13

finally they can say at the end that

play15:18

they learned what turtles eat and about

play15:22

what a turtles habitat or the place

play15:26

where the turtles live is

play15:30

these

play15:31

strategies let students think about

play15:34

their work they can also have a chance

play15:37

to explain the strategies that they like

play15:41

and which ones they like to use in class

play15:44

and outside of

play15:49

class okay two topics down our third

play15:54

topic is developing thinking skills

play16:02

so our question how can I help children

play16:06

develop cognitive strategies in language

play16:10

learning now

play16:12

cognitive simply means thinking so

play16:16

cognitive strategies our thinking

play16:21

strategies with Young Learners of

play16:24

English cognitive skills are used to

play16:27

make predictions

play16:29

predictions are a guess about what will

play16:32

happen in the future or in a

play16:36

story students can also teach themselves

play16:40

by thinking about the context of a word

play16:45

the student can understand the meaning

play16:48

of the word frightening which is scary

play16:53

if the context is a scary situation in a

play16:57

scary story for

play17:02

example uh some examples of cognitive

play17:06

strategies and thinking strategies

play17:09

include

play17:11

identifying uh looking at a picture uh

play17:14

to say what is in that picture the

play17:18

teacher can ask students which animals

play17:21

can you see in a picture of a zoo and

play17:24

then the students can identify ah I see

play17:27

a lion oh very good ah I see a zebra yes

play17:31

nice job ah I see a penguin so

play17:35

identifying those parts in the picture

play17:39

another strategy is skimming uh which is

play17:43

a way to search a story quickly for

play17:46

words that answer a question for example

play17:49

you can ask your students uh okay uh

play17:53

what did Ben say at this time and then

play17:56

the students can quickly try to find

play17:59

the name Ben okay Ben here Ben here Ben

play18:03

here and try to find the words that Ben

play18:06

is saying in the story instead of

play18:09

reading all of it have to quickly find

play18:12

that key word then and try to find what

play18:15

he is

play18:16

saying um another thinking strategy is

play18:20

matching so this is for example putting

play18:24

the same words or pictures together so

play18:28

for example you have dog the word dog

play18:31

and the picture dog for example so

play18:33

matching those two

play18:36

together uh some other examples of

play18:40

cognitive strategies or thinking

play18:42

strategies are sequencing so sequencing

play18:47

is putting things in order in date or

play18:52

time so for example the first event

play18:55

happens first and then the second event

play18:58

the Third event the fourth event so

play19:01

putting those events in the correct

play19:03

order another strategy is ranking so

play19:08

this is putting things in order of

play19:10

importance so you might ask students to

play19:14

rate which animals they think are the

play19:17

cutest so okay the most cute animal the

play19:21

second most cute animal and the third

play19:23

most cute animal so maybe the students

play19:27

will think I think rabbits are the

play19:29

cutest the second cutest animal is cats

play19:33

the third cutest animal is hamsters so

play19:37

having this

play19:38

rength and uh another one more thinking

play19:42

strategy is creating which is just

play19:45

making something new from materials like

play19:48

paper or paints uh again earlier we said

play19:53

that uh getting students to use their

play19:56

hands and be creative is an important

play19:59

strategy for Young Learners so creating

play20:01

something is uh uh doing this activity

play20:04

is a good way to use this

play20:08

strategy okay one final cognitive

play20:13

strategy uh is through the use of good

play20:17

questions so teacher questions are very

play20:20

important in the classroom uh you can

play20:23

use a very simple yes no or short answer

play20:27

questions uh which can be easy to answer

play20:30

and also encourage many students to

play20:34

respond in the classroom uh you can also

play20:37

use open questions like asking a

play20:41

student's opinion about something and

play20:45

this will encourage them to give

play20:47

reasons uh it's also something important

play20:51

to keep in mind is give them some time

play20:55

to answer at least 3 seconds

play20:59

so give them 3 seconds to answer and

play21:03

self-correct and then think about what

play21:05

they want to say next uh however it is

play21:09

okay to help the student if they are

play21:12

taking too long to answer uh so students

play21:16

should not feel embarrassed when

play21:18

answering in front of many other

play21:20

students so uh one thing you can do is

play21:25

do this activity many times in your

play21:29

classroom and so students can become

play21:31

more comfortable doing it and they won't

play21:33

feel embarrassed about making mistakes

play21:36

if you do this often in your

play21:41

classroom okay so moving on we have

play21:45

talked about children as language

play21:47

Learners we have talked about developing

play21:50

children's language learning strategies

play21:53

we have talked about developing thinking

play21:56

skills let's go on and talk about about

play21:58

our final topic which is developing

play22:01

communication

play22:04

skills

play22:06

so how can I help children develop

play22:09

communication strategies through

play22:12

language learning let's dive

play22:17

in so let's talk about communication

play22:20

strategies or ways to understand other

play22:24

people first we have verbal

play22:27

communication

play22:29

or understanding other people by talking

play22:32

or writing in

play22:34

English and we have

play22:37

nonverbal communication which is

play22:40

communication without talking this is

play22:43

done by reading facial expressions or

play22:46

feelings using hand gestures or drawing

play22:51

and showing pictures for clearer

play22:57

understanding also

play22:59

we can use chunking phrases like can I

play23:04

and I feel to understand the function or

play23:09

reason for using the

play23:11

language we use these for greeting

play23:14

friends explaining problems and asking

play23:17

for

play23:18

information uh focusing on functional

play23:21

language for chunking will also help

play23:24

Young Learners feel more comfortable

play23:27

with socializing or meeting new

play23:30

people as a teacher there are ways to

play23:34

teach verbal and nonverbal language

play23:37

strategies in the classroom as well as

play23:40

helping students practice functional

play23:42

language or

play23:44

chunking uh for example uh ask students

play23:48

to make a classroom rules poster as a

play23:51

class or in groups the teacher can hang

play23:55

these poster crafts on their classroom

play23:57

walls that help students remember the

play24:00

rules and how to ask questions like can

play24:03

you repeat that can I borrow an

play24:07

eraser this will help them remember

play24:09

their chunkin phrases and have something

play24:12

to look at in the classroom if they

play24:16

forget the poster also motivates the

play24:20

students to work as a team make new

play24:23

friends and to think and to be creative

play24:27

together

play24:31

uh another one is roleplay activities

play24:34

and drama activities these activities

play24:38

let students use their imaginations and

play24:41

practice language they will use outside

play24:44

of the classroom the roleplay can come

play24:47

from an example of the lesson content

play24:51

for example CH uh students can role

play24:54

playay about buying groceries from the

play24:56

supermarket or going to to an airport to

play24:59

travel on an airplane uh students can

play25:02

use chunking phrases to greet staff and

play25:06

use the lesson grammar point in the

play25:09

activity uh as always you can model with

play25:13

a student first or give an example of a

play25:17

good roleplay and a bad role play before

play25:21

the activity

play25:22

starts with drama roleplay students can

play25:26

exaggerate or over stress the feelings

play25:30

and emotions of the roleplay acting in

play25:34

the drama sad can be very very sad and

play25:38

angry can be very angry but these

play25:42

students can have a script of the

play25:45

language they will use uh the students

play25:48

can really see a connection between the

play25:51

verbal and

play25:53

nonverbal communication

play25:57

strategies uh another point is

play25:59

communication without words uh for

play26:03

example games like as we said earlier

play26:06

charades or dictionary are common games

play26:10

where students must guess the answer by

play26:13

only watching or expressions or gestures

play26:17

without talking is a great way to

play26:21

practice their nonverbal communication

play26:25

skills for example one child can look at

play26:29

a card with an emotion on it make the

play26:33

facial expression and have students

play26:36

guess the emotion the winner is the

play26:39

first to answer

play26:41

correctly the same thing can be done

play26:44

with animal cards sports cards or

play26:47

greting cards uh guessing games like

play26:50

these are usually quite

play26:54

fun

play26:56

finally remember to be a good example

play27:01

for your students always use tpr for

play27:06

Total Physical response good hands

play27:09

gestures in the classroom while teaching

play27:12

use your hands to make a big circle when

play27:15

talking about the whole world or cup

play27:19

your ear when you want students to speak

play27:22

as a

play27:23

class hand gestures are different in

play27:26

different countries also the gesture for

play27:29

dog in Japan is not the same as the

play27:33

gesture for dog in America so this is

play27:37

also a good opportunity for

play27:39

introducing crosscultural understanding

play27:43

into your language

play27:45

classroom uh also uh use the English

play27:49

with your students that you want them to

play27:52

use can I see your homework or can you

play27:56

put the pencil back in the Box please

play27:59

reminds students to use chunking phrases

play28:04

and a kind tone of voice when asking for

play28:08

something but giving kind feedback is

play28:11

important low-level

play28:14

student with poor roleplay skills might

play28:18

need more motivation to role playay well

play28:22

instead of you did badly the teacher can

play28:26

say we can practice this more

play28:34

together okay let's wrap things up uh in

play28:38

this lesson we talked about children as

play28:41

language Learners developing children's

play28:45

language learning strategies developing

play28:48

critical thinking skills and developing

play28:51

communication skills uh as I said

play28:54

earlier in this lesson remember to

play28:57

understand that children are unique uh

play29:00

each child is different they are not all

play29:03

the same so please come to your English

play29:07

language classroom with many different

play29:11

tools and strategies that we have talked

play29:13

play29:17

help them understand
