Hello,

I recently was told to teach kindy. The thing is its my first time as well as i am allowed no technology. They expect me to teach them english words,play games, and sing songsand read books...but i am at loss as to how im supposed to teach them anything (as well as keep their attention) without the use if a visual aid like powerpoint or youtube...

Any help on this would be so nice! Thank you

You didn't really state a level but...

This is an easy game if you want to teach phonics and if they have English names.  Substitute the letter you are practicing for the first letter of their name.  So if we are doing "F" Ann, Dave and Jim become Fan, Fave and Fim.  Don't use their Korean names unless you are confident you can pick out all the "bad" words, eg Hyun Tae  with "B" becomes Byuntae or pervert.  I usually skip vowels till the they learn long vowels.  Do multiple letters when you are practicing, the kids will often suggest letters so that their name is right and all their friends names are goofy.

Another easy game for letters is to get a cheap brightly colored balls.  They should be big enough that they aren't too easy for the kids to grab.  Start with one ball. Sit the children down, show them a letter toss the ball to a child, if the child can say the name of the letter they can toss it back to you.  If they can't they have put it back in your hand.  It works even better if the kids are sitting at a table where several can try to catch the ball or if you make a "table" by putting several desks together.  After they know the names of the letters you can add a (different colored) ball for a thing that starts with the letter, the child runs and touches the thing wherever it is in the class and later another ball for the sound of the letter.  I usually mark what each one is in marker as I confuse them when I'm using all three.  Introduce the game by getting the ball to some of the girls so the demonstration of the game doesn't get out of control.  The problem with this game is the boys will get excited and throw the ball at your head rather than toss it back.  The solution is simple.  If it happens the game is over for that day.  Alternately you could sit that child out for the rest of the game but they will police each other better if you end the game.

Kindergarten kids still want to make you happy so be lavish with your praise.

Using powerpoint for Kindergarten is a horrible idea.

Go to supersimplesongs.com
Sing lots of songs, dance, make a routine.

Do a hello song and a goodbye song, give stickers often.
Read storybooks, play games, and use big flashcards to teach new words!

Yeah I would have to agree with the previous posts. I usually play games like duck duck goose and sing songs while using hand gestures... They love it. 

They also said they want me to read stories but i know these kids arent gettinig it.

They are really low level..if this was America they would barely be in preschool... so any book that I read is going over there heads. Though they are low level they pick up easily (if that makes any sense) despite not understanding what their doing.

But I will say that if I didnt bring my ipad I would have been ALL THE WAY screwed.

My strategy with kindergarten is to not worry so much that they get everything.  I read books to them which some get, some don't...and I think that's fine.  They're young enough that as long as you read them the story in an interesting way, they'll still be engaged, still be hearing English, and still working on listening.  No harm there.

Use lots of songs with actions.  I suggest Super Simple Songs.  There are a lot of great songs there.

Easy books are found in Genki English website. 

Use flashcards and play games using the cards is a lot of fun for kids.

try and get the students to act out the characters in the stories you read. yeah lots of songs, don't be scared to sing and dance yourself and make yourself look silly.
Any games with flashcards like throw a ball or slap the word you say. individually, in a group race, mix it up and stick with what works
from your ipad play music and do pass the ball.
print out bingo sheets with simple vocab like colours or animals, body parts, family members, weather etc.
if you have like an alphabet magnet or just flashcard set or something, have them race to put it in order.
I have them do  a team relay race to spell out words using magnetic alphabet. they obviously can't spell at that age so i put the word up where they can see and just copy the word.
I've found students that young even like Dr.Seuss stories, the words and rhyme and rhythm are funny even to them when they have no idea of the meaning.
and yeah simple crafts, even something so simple as teaching some animal vocab and having them draw the animal. or teaching body parts and make them come up with their own creature
