Hey everyone. I am teaching at a kindergarten, and I am running out of ideas for games to play with them. My classes consist of me teaching them flashcards, and then using the new vocabulary to practice generic sentences with a blank space, ie I teach them ten different foods, and then teach them "I like to eat ." The games should revolve around those cards. For example I play a game where I lay the cards out on a table and then from the other side of the room I tell the kids which one to find, and let the run to get their card and see who can return to me first. I would really really appreciate some ideas. As an afterthought I have an open space (large empty room to play in), music, and a far amount of props (mostly toys and costumes.) Thanks a lot.

I think it's illegal for foreigners to teach kindie in Taiwan, not Korea.

Hello, Murph!

Since I joined the forum, there have been lots of threads asking for advice on how to teach kindergarten:

48 47 46 45 44 43 42 41
40 39 38 37 36 35 34 33 32 31
30 29 28 27 26 25 24 23 22 21
20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11
10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1

The next time someone asks, this will become thread number 49.

Simon Says, but it's probably best for 6 or 7 year olds (K-age, 5 is too young)
