Welcome, welcome! This time im going to present you some tools that you can use with your children to improve their skills or to work with different methodologies. We will separate them in 4 sections:
- Gamification: we can work with this methodology using:

I think everybody who is reading this post knows about this app, but I will explain it briefly.
Kahoot is a tool that allows you to create a questionnaire and your children can answer the questions using electronic devices such as: mobile phones, tablets, laptops or computers.

Brainscape is an app available in Android and iOS in which you can create or use flashcards from other users. This flashcards are useful to work with a particular topic, but you can make a quiz using this tool aswell.

ClassDojo is an app really useful because it can perform different tasks, like:
You can report to their parents information about the students or the schedule.
But this app aswell has different activities that you can perform and you can give stickers to the student depending on their performance.
- Oral skills: we can improve the oral skill using:

Super simple is an app to learn simple songs for children. This app is really useful to work the oral skill with primary and kindergarten children.

English as a second language games is an interesting webpage which has a lot of activities to learn English.
This time we will use Fast Phrases to practice our oral skills.
Fast Phrases is a basic sentence formation game.
You look at the image and the click on the options to form a matching phrase.
The idea behind this game is to allow players to practice making correct English sentences in an engaging way. An image is presented with a 3 to 5 possible options below.

Lyricstraining is a webpage/app related to super simple but in this case, when you're singing the song, the video stops to fill the gap, if you don't fill the gap you can't continue the song.
Written skills: we can improve this skill using:

British Council for kids its an interesting webpage that you, as an English teacher, you must check because you have a big amount of activities.
In this case, this webpage has a section dedicated to written skills, so that is why I selected there, but you can find differents activities.

Here is again our friend Voki, you can work the written skills with this app in this way:
They have to create an avatar and describe it.
They have to know how to describe before doing this activity.

CreAPPcuentos is a Spanish tool in which you can create story.
We are going to use this app to create a story and later on, the students will created a written story related to the image.
Useful videos to teach English: we are going to present 3 videos that will help our children to improve their English:
Head Shoulders Knees & Toes is a song that we can use to introduce parts of the body.
It's an interesting video to present for children in first or second grade.
If you're happy and you know it another video that you can use with children to learn English and to practice oral skills aswell. The children will love this song for sure.
The finger family is a really good song for first grade children. With this song they are learning English and having fun aswell.
