TPR emphasizes the use of physical activity for increasing meaningful learning opportunities and language retention. For example, a simple TPR lesson for beginning students might entail commands such as, "Put the book on the table" or "stand up" (Wright, 2015, pg. 165).

Depending on the type of listening center technology used in the classroom, teachers may also be able to connect to other devices, such as tablets, smart phones, and even computers for a more personalized learning experience.]]> 2018-04-09 04:20:08 UTC https://padlet.com/yenifer_anguiano28/yg37w2b84o3q/wish/249640129 yenifer_anguiano28 https://padlet.com/yenifer_anguiano28/yg37w2b84o3q/wish/249640157 Retelling is a strategy that is used to determine how well a student has comprehended a specific story. Retelling can be used as an effective tool in improving comprehension as well as assessing it. These presentations can be given in front of the whole class or in small groups (Wright, 2015, pg. 168).

Show and Tell is a chance for our young pupils to show off their “prized possessions”. Being centre of attention for a couple of minutes will make them feel special and important. These emotions will make them feel more confident and valued.

This strategy requires students to (1) think individually about a topic or answer to a question; and (2) share ideas with classmates.It provides built-in wait time and in a low-risk environment (Wright, 2015, pg. 171). ]]> 2018-04-09 04:23:19 UTC https://padlet.com/yenifer_anguiano28/yg37w2b84o3q/wish/249640495 yenifer_anguiano28 https://padlet.com/yenifer_anguiano28/yg37w2b84o3q/wish/249640680 Roundtable is a good cooperative structure and interactive activity to practice vocabulary, grammar, or even content. Students pass a paper around, adding an item according to the criteria you designate. This task works well with ELL's because they are working collaboratively with a small group of peers on a narrow task (Weight, 2015, pg. 172).

Students are placed in groups 
2. Each student is given a number 
3. The Teacher asks a question 
4. The Students put their heads together 
to figure out the answer
5. The Teacher calls a number and the 
Student presents their group answer.

Information gap activities are communicative activities for two or more learners, where, for example, Learner A has information that Learner B needs, and vice versa. In a barrier game Learner A and Learner B sit with a barrier between them and are required to convey information to each other, for example while looking at different text or images. For advanced ELL's, more advanced vocabulary can be used (Wright, 2015, pg. 73). ]]> 2018-04-09 04:35:43 UTC https://padlet.com/yenifer_anguiano28/yg37w2b84o3q/wish/249642259 yenifer_anguiano28 https://padlet.com/yenifer_anguiano28/yg37w2b84o3q/wish/249642282 An obstacle course for preschool is a popular game where the teacher sets up a course that requires several physical activities like walking, climbing, crawling and maintaining balance, and children cross all of these obstacles to reach the end of the course. Words such as "go left" or "walk backwards" can be used by the teacher to give directions (Wright, 2015, pg. 173). ]]> 2018-04-09 04:35:55 UTC https://padlet.com/yenifer_anguiano28/yg37w2b84o3q/wish/249642282 yenifer_anguiano28 https://padlet.com/yenifer_anguiano28/yg37w2b84o3q/wish/249642305 Who Am I? is a guessing game where you use the traits and characteristics of famous, historical, or company figures to break the ice with each other.
