Hi Everyone,
I created this lesson for my school's English festival to explore the places that my students could travel to if they knew English.
It includes:
1. a power point presentation of 6 different countries that use the English language,
2. a worksheet to help students write a postcard
3. a template for making a postcard and
4. a template for making flags
My 3rd and 4th graders made flags while my 5th and 6th graders made postcards.
Instructions for making flags:
Students picked out the flag of the country they most wanted to visit and wrote the name of the country and their name on the back of the flag. When they finished writing and coloring the flag, they came up to my desk so I could check their spelling. If everything was correct, I attached a straw with tape to create the flag.
Instructions for the postcards:
Students filled out one item for each category in the attached worksheet during the presentation. At the end of the presentation, students picked the postcard flag of the country the most wanted to visit and followed the template for writing the postcards in the powerpoint.
Enjoy!
