Hello to one and all! My dears, I continue to provide useful information and materials in such an important area for many as English for children. And there’s already a lot... So I decided to collect everything in an organized warehouse! (Or maybe a treasure :-)), so that everyone can look there and find what they need for themselves and their children.

This page of my website is the address of the location of this warehouse. It contains (and continues to collect) all the necessary materials on the English language that will be useful to the smallest representatives of the human race)) (2-7 years old, and even older), their parents or teachers. Here are my materials, and there are those that I found on the Internet, chose the best and present to you here. English can be interesting, free and accessible to every child!

By the way, be sure to voice your questions or suggestions for materials in the comments. Let's improve the treasure together!

Content:

Remember that the basic principles of teaching “young students” are brightness, interest and only playful form! So here everything is exactly like that - memorable and fascinating video English lessons, bright educational cartoons, game ideas, cards and pictures, songs and rhymes - everything that will allow you to plunge into the world of English with your baby!

By the way, many materials are suitable not only for those who are starting to plunge into the world of language from scratch, but also for those who are older! Such children can even use materials independently, listening, watching and repeating.

Always seek emotional involvement on your part and then the child’s passion for the subject will not take long to occur.

My tips and recommendations

One very serious mother once asked me a question: “Tell me, how can I teach English to my 3-year-old son? What’s the best way to structure a lesson... and in general, where to start?” I answered her: “Start with this - forget the word “teach”, “lesson” and the like! And remember the words "games, fun and bright pictures"!

Books and textbooks

There are some parents who believe that in the age modern technologies the book can be replaced with various convenient devices. And I say - no! A book is something that will never go out of style and will forever remain every child's best friend! Especially when it comes to learning a new language.

If your child is already 4 years old and you want him to learn English not only with the help of songs and cartoons, it’s time to buy a good book that will help him the best assistant and guide to the world of language . ABOUT good options books and textbooks for children I’m talking about here:

Numbers and numbers (1-10, 11-20)

One spoon... two spoons... three spoons! How familiar this is to our children! After all, they hear numbers almost from birth. That's probably why this topic It’s especially easy for kids!

Numbers and figures...What a broad topic! But very young students don’t need to know all the numbers—they only need to learn 10 numbers! It's so easy - after all, there are 10 fingers on your hands! On your feet too! And in general, you can count anything around you - toys, books, adults and even seconds...

But if you want more, you can go up to 20!

Alphabet

Some people believe that teaching a child English should start exclusively with the alphabet. This is a big misconception when it comes to children 3-4-5 years old! Children master foreign language absolutely no problem, without even knowing the letters. After all, they understand Russian somehow already at 1-2 years old!))

But nevertheless, one day the moment comes when you get to know in English letters already worth it. For example, before school - to be fully prepared, as they say. Or if the baby himself shows interest in them.

My daughter knew all Russian letters (by appearance and corresponding sound) at 2 years of age. We were ready to learn English letters at 4!

And here different ways of approaching this insidious English alphabet)). I talk about these methods in my article:

There with help songs, videos, cards, sounds, games and rhymes You can learn the alphabet very quickly.

Words for children by topic

It is with words that every child’s acquaintance with the English language begins! He must hear and see them! And this - warp at the initial stages. But seeing does not mean looking at the written word! Each new word heard should form an image and picture in the child’s head. This is how he begins to see him! And only then will the child try to pronounce the learned words himself.

I have prepared for you a selection of the most popular words for children , and also small thematic collections . Each word is voiced, translated and has a picture. Besides this, you can download cards with words to print, cut them out and work. It is very convenient and practical.

Words on the topic of family

Words about animals

Words on the topic of fruits and vegetables

Words about home

Words about food

Words on the topic of clothing

Words on the topic of profession

Colors in English

Pink became an even more favorite color for my daughter when she was introduced to it in the context of the English language. After that, “pink” was heard from her lips wherever she encountered pink objects))

Colors in English are kids' favorite theme which comes very easily to them. A child is able to remember even 10 colors within 2-3 days. To do this, you need to present these bright words “on a silver platter”)). And to do this, just go here:

Cartoons

Needless to say, cartoons today are one of the favorite entertainments of all children and teenagers. Some children manage to watch them all day long, and some parents manage to allow it!

I think this type of entertainment is for a child must be strictly limited. And of course, if you watch cartoons, then they should be useful and meaningful. Do you agree? And this is especially true if we are talking about cartoons in English . They can become completely unobtrusive but at the same time extremely effective English lessons that the child will perceive as fun! He may not even realize that he is thereby learning a foreign language!

I have selected the best, in my opinion, cartoons for children. Please note that such cartoons are divided into those with Russian comments and those only in English! I recommend Children under 4 years old should watch exclusively English cartoons without a single Russian word. . They will understand everything. Watch, learn and enjoy!

Educational video lessons

Here you also need to understand that very young children (up to 3-4 years old) do not need to listen to explanations in Russian - just watch English-language videos with bright pictures - they will be able to understand everything! The main thing is that you like the video and arouse interest. Choose:

Songs and Video songs

Beautiful combination of rhyme and melody always gives a wonderful effect in the process of learning and memorizing something!

In addition to the cartoons and educational videos (which also included a lot of songs), I offer you 2 more of my notes with materials for children. In the first there are video songs, in the second there are simply songs with an attached translation into Russian:

Games

Play and learn in fact, two identical words, because nothing gives such results in learning as the game form of any classes and any activity.

I have talked about games in English for kids more than once on the pages of my blog. And this topic is far from closed. IN There is still a large amount of materials in the process of preparation, which parents and teachers will soon be able to use for their very young charges.

And now you can familiarize yourself with these.

Everyone remembers how at school we were forced to study using boring, outdated and shabby library textbooks. Our children are luckier. But with the overwhelming choice comes a feeling of confusion. How to understand what is right for your child? We selected eight English language textbooks for children and divided them into two categories: textbooks for the youngest (6-9 years old) and for teenagers (10-15 years old).

Modern textbooks differ significantly from their predecessors. Education in them is built not only with the help of bright pictures and games. The authors of the manuals develop characters that schoolchildren like. These could be children, animals, or even mythical heroes with whom the child would like to associate himself. Next, the authors lead their characters throughout the textbook, talking about the daily lives of the heroes and the adventures that happen to them.

In addition, modern textbooks not only teach children English, but also help them develop in general. In these textbooks the child will find There are many creative tasks: make a postcard, compose a song. Teenagers are offered individual, pair and group projects.

With regular classes, children will acquire a level even before leaving school.

General structure of English textbooks for children

The main textbook for children aged 6-9 years old is usually called Pupil’s Book or Class Book. Manuals for children 10-15 years old are called Student’s Books. They are illustrated texts with tasks. At the end of the textbooks you will find lists of new words (Word Lists) and explanations of grammar (Grammar Reference). Some publishers offer materials on regional studies (Culture Clips).
In the Activity Book, the student completes unit tasks: drawing, coloring images, writing words, composing essays, and solving tests.
In the Teacher’s Book you will find tips on teaching a lesson, correct answers to test questions, transcripts of audio recordings and additional materials for teaching by units: stories, songs, discussions, games. You will also learn what skills each specific exercise develops in a child.
All textbooks are sold together with CDs containing listening materials. Some textbooks are accompanied by discs with video files.

Textbooks for children 6-9 years old

It is believed that 6-7 years is the most suitable age to start learning English. The child already goes to school, gets used to a regular schedule and a continuous learning process. He develops his own interests, so it is easier to interest and motivate him than a baby who is just going to kindergarten. Let's see what benefits will help the child at this stage.

Structure

The textbook (Class Book) consists of 9 units, each of which is devoted to a particular topic: school play, picnic, toys, farm. The unit is divided into several short lessons: this allows you not only to conveniently divide classes depending on the allocated time and stamina of the student, but also to carefully work through all the skills. The tasks are aimed primarily at developing active listening and speaking skills. The exercises consist of colorful illustrations, short texts and short audio recordings.

Examples of exercises: Listen and find (you need to study the image, listen to the speaker and find the indicated objects, animals or people in the picture), Listen and say (you need to repeat the words after the speaker), Listen and sing (you need to repeat lines from the song).
