Online activities on Jobs

Rochão's fourth year class is working on the topic of Jobs so I decided to post a link to some online activities so they can practise the vocabulary a little more, here it goes:

Online games and activities

In this post we decided to show a site that some of you might know but that we find it very useful and motivating for kids (and teachers too). Enjoy.

P.S. The site doesn't seem to work properly with Firefox, so we recommend using Internet Explorer.

Flashcard Games

Today we present an activity (made in Nogueira) divided into two parts. Both make use of flashcards. In the first part of the activity the pupils have to( after seeing the flashcards and repeating the names of food) find the flashcard the teacher asks for, note that the flashcards are turned around after repeating the names.

After this part, in which no written words were used, the teacher asked the pupils to find the correct label to each picture. After the labelling the teacher mixed and put the flashcards and the labels back on the board, making two lines, one marked with letters, the other with numbers. He then divided the class into two teams which had to match the flashcards and the labels using the letters and numbers as a reference. This activity is also good to practise letters and numbers.
