Juanita Said:

What are some good books for teaching ESL?

We Answered:

Start with pre-K or K-1 level books that explain the difference between capital and lower case letters, as Korean does not have this distinction. The "Spectrum" series from McGraw-Hill children's publications is a good source. It can help the students to know that they are working at close to the same grade-level as their American counterparts.

Spectrum also published vocabulary books, with a lot of vocabulary organized by theme.

Most important, for conversation, is to teach the children words nd phrases that are germane to their daily life. A young kid under 12 could care less about banking and finance words, or airplane words, but would probably be interested in words such as classroom vocabulary, school subjects, family members, food, animals and places in town. Other good themes include toys, games/sports. You may also want to bring a CD with children's songs in English on it. Singing is a great way to teach proper pronunciation.

My experience with children learning a foreign language indicates that children learn by doing rather than by rote. If they can put what they learn into practice immediately, then they will retain it better.

Stephanie Said:

How do I plan out a lesson plan for an ESL kindergarten class?

We Answered:

Talk to the Kindergarten teachers at the school to see what they are covering in the regular ed. classes. Also...do they have standards there? Otherwise I would assume that they need to know what all K students need to know. Colors, shapes, numbers, the alphabet...a place to start at least.

Teaching ESL - Looking for fun resources?

We Answered:

Hard to say as you don't say what age your students are. What's the book? If it's an up-to-date coursebook it might well have a website with extra activities and resources on it. Check the publisher's website. The sites below are sometimes useful and will have links to other sites. Just google TEFL - there are dozens.
