As Kids English was originally designed for parents to use with their kids,
the idea is that each theme will give the kids language they can use in
real life situations. For most kids in Summer time, this means going to
the beach!
It's great to ask the kids what they do at the beach, then compare it with
what you yourself used to do when you were a kid.
Game
Here we have the Sticky Starfish game, which is basically a variation on
the Sticky Fingers Game, but using seaside vocab from the song. The idea is that kids can play
it on the beach, but it works just as well in the classroom!
On the CD we also explain the game rules in Japanese ( just in case!),
and run through several variations of the game.
Picture Book: "Don't forget the sun cream"
As with the other Kids English themes, once the kids have learnt the song
they can easily understand the picture book, even in one 45 minute lesson.
This time there's a bit of a message in the sun as Dad keeps saying he
doesn't need sun cream, but gets very sore at the end!
On the CD there are three recordings of the narration, chose the one according to the kids mood from "Parentese" ( really slow and clear), "Normal" or "Genki".
This theme is available in the Genki English "Kids English" set!
