Hi Paula!
ResponderEliminarI like this exercise a lot! You have done a great job and make a very useful activity to practice prepositions, that usually are a bit controversial for our students.
Besides, I think that the format you have used, not only in this activity but in all the blog, is very appropiate for children: size of the letters, colours, pictures, images... and also the way the activity is proposed: theory and images, the use of flashcards, review of the most controversial points (on, in and at) and the mixture between traditional exercises (gap filling) and hot potatoes exercises.
I tought about including an activity about prepositions in my blog (finally I didn´t) and I found a song that perhaps you find interesting to include in your activity. This is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idJYhjGyWTU
Good evening, Paula!
ResponderEliminarI agree with Marlene. Your blog is very nice and recommended for children. I like how you mix theory and activities, using attractive images. You propose different activities for each issue.
In my opinion, you choose a good way to teach the propositions. Your proposal is quite visual and that facilitates the learning. I'll use it for my classes.
Thank you!
