L & S 12 : Colour Dictation

Skill : Listening and Speaking

Year : 3

Topic 4 : People Around Us

_________________________________________________________________________

Its a recall topic for this week, so I'll start the lesson by asking the pupils to search for few words related to occupations in their dictionary. Oh yes, my pupils started to love using dictionary now, which is a great achievement for them. :)

Then, I'll continue with an activity named as Colour Dictation. A sample of worksheet can be seen in the picture below :

As we can see, this worksheet needed the pupils to listen to text read by the teacher (refer to textbook page 26, *modify and add more occupations in the text) and colour the names of occupations that they heard. That's it. A copy of this worksheet is given below in two formats (docx. and pdf). You may change the names of occupations to whatever that you like. Have fun and good luck! :)

L & S 9 : Colour Song!

Lesson : Listening and Speaking / Language Arts

Year : 1

For this lesson, I conducted a singing lesson (based on the textbook, page 57). So, basically, I prepared simple props to let the students respond with the song that they sing. I use the I Love You Barney song since I found that the tune given in the textbook (This Old Man song) is a little bit fast for the students to catch up. The lyric of the song is as follows :

Title : Colour Song (use the tune of I Love You Barney Song)

I like red,

I like red,

I like a red bow on my suit,

I like a red bug, red mug, red bed too,

I like red and what about you?

I like yellow,

I like yellow,

I like a yellow bow on my suit,

I like a yellow bug, yellow mug, yellow bed too,

I like yellow and what about you?

*since its the colour song, simply change the colour of the items to red, yellow, green and blue. I use these colours because I prepared the props in these colours. So, be flexible to make your props even better!

For that, the photo of the props is as follows :

I simply printed these photos on colour papers (save ink, save budget) and then laminated them to ensure the durability. The size of the photos are basically big enough for the students to see it (around A5 size).

As usual, I provided the materials to be downloaded for this activity :

By the way, you can adapt this activity to be used in Language Arts too! 

Thanks for reading! :)
