Your students enjoy 2 games in this web, the first one is the dressing up game.
I think most girls like this game.
When they dress up the girl in screen, the computer speaks the name of the clothes. So kids will know the words naturally. If you click a clothes repeatly, they can hear the name of it again and again. Then they can get used to the words easily.
The second is the painting game.
When the student paints a color, the computer speaks the name of the color.
So they can learn the name of color easily. The pictures are various and they can even print it out.
1)Learner fit : It can't present English at a level that is appropriate for learners. But usually they are in the beginner level. And it is very interesting.
2)Bottom-up and top-down processing : It can help the learners focus on particular linguistic aspects by topics like colors or numbers.
3)Selective listening activities : It provides students with a purpose for listening games. And it provides the opportunity for learners to practice holding information in their short-term memories.
4)Video : The program present listening with video. And it include attention to paralinguistic and extralinguistic clues for understanding. And there are controls for the student to pause and replay the video.
5)Two types of evaluation : It doesn't include exercises for students to complete while they are listening. But it include comprehension quizzes.
6)Strategy development : It dosent' incorporate opportunities for students to practice the strategies of listening. But it explicitly teaches listening.
How to use?
Just let them know! It could be in-class material, but not that effective. They just motivate your students to use English. Or in part of art class, use the dressing game. Then you can teach them both the name of colors in English and painting!
