Mobile Phones in the Classroom!
Our two Childacare volunteers that are in Nepal at the
moment decided to be brave and take on some older classes at Little Daffodils. Grades 2 to 5 are a far cry from the little
tackers of the nurseries they normally work in but the girls had planned
well. Kristina and Judith added some flare to a
basic English greeting conversation lesson by turning it into a phone
conversation. The girls made phones
from paper cups and string and wrote out a small script for the children to
practise with. Then the kids had free
rein with the phones and practising in groups.
The phone calls ranged from 30 seconds to 5 minutes and many important
things were discussed, such as football, homework, travel, and school.

Mobile phones are not a problem here with children as they seldom own one so these homemade telephones were a welcome addition to the classroom for some great English practise and a lot of fun!
No, it's not an iPhone, it's a cUp phone! |
