As used by "Last Samurai" star Koyuki in her new TV Series! (check out the picture cards on the table in this photo!)
Some of these picture may seem "funny looking" to adult eyes,
but in tests these are the ones that get the biggest reaction from the
kids. It's much easier to remember a card if it looks a little weird and
makes you laugh, rather than one where you simply think "whatever".
Along with songs, large picture cards are one of the best ways to get kids to remember
the new words. If you have the Genki English Teachers' Set, Download Pack or Superpack , you can download them for free. If you can, try and get them laminated.
All the pictures are copyrighted, but please feel free to use them in your
classroom.
