Motivating Young Children to Learn English

Motivating Young Children to Learn English: Keeping Their Attention without Giving Them Gifts - by Shelley Vernon

Young children are often eager, almost too eager. The problem arises when they are eager to do things other than what you’re trying to teach them. Here are six top tips to keep them interested in class and motivated to do what you want them to do:

Tip #1: Keep Yourself Motivated.
Think back to when you were a child. If your teacher was not enthusiastic about what he or she had scheduled for class that day, how did you feel about it? It’s the same with young children today. If you, the teacher and often a role model for younger children, think this is a neat activity, then they will too!

Tip #2: Encourage.
Young kids thrive on praise and positive attention from the adults in their lives. If you want them to like you and be motivated in your class, you often just need to give them a lot of positive attention.

Tip #3: Play Games
Children learn through play. Oftentimes they don’t even realize they are learning if they are enjoying the game. Just think, children could sit there and fill out worksheet after worksheet or they could play an English game and learn the same concepts. Which would you rather do?

When I say English games I’m talking about games that are specifically designed to teach language and vocabulary. For example, you could turn using vehicle vocabulary into a relay game where children need to pick a card with a word and then run to a box of vehicles (or a stack of pictures of vehicles) and bring the correct one his or her classmates.

Here is another example: If you might normally give them a worksheet to write the correct verb next to the picture illustrating the action, have them instead practice their verbs by doing the action for the word you say or the word on a card that you hold up. Likewise, you could do the action and have them write down the word. You may access free samples of fun classroom games in the resource box below.

When you play games, you can use points and competition as a motivator, but not for kids under six who may find the competition too stressful. For them, just playing the game is motivating enough. You can also sometimes award extra credit, but use it sparingly so that it remains "extra" and a special reward. Also if you use it too much, children can have so much extra credit that it sways the actual grades too much.

Tip #4: Get Their Hands Dirty
Literally and figuratively. Children like to work with their hands and whatever you can do to get the items they are learning about in their hands is useful and fun for them. This can be anything from having a sensory table filled with sand and beach items when you want to teach them summer words to having them each bring in a piece of fruit when you are teaching fruit words. Anytime you can get young children up and doing instead of listening (often passively) you are getting their hands dirty in the learning process.

Tip #5: Get Them Moving.
Movement is a vital component to motivating children. The best way to prevent children from zoning out is to get them up out of their seats at least once each class period. Even if you just require them to come up to you instead of you going to them for help, the movement can help get them out of the trance that they sometimes get from sitting in one spot too long. Grouping the children for study projects and activities helps as well. If you can, let them move the desks around or sit on the floor to change things up as well. Many games involve movement without the children needing to leave their seats, such as miming, moving certain body parts and passing things around as part of a game or race. Therefore even teachers with large classes and no space to move can use this technique, albeit to a more limited degree.

Tip #6: Vary the Pace
Alternate calm games with lively ones to keep the children alert and motivated, but without letting the class get out of hand. Good discipline is essential to effective learning.

An ELT Glossary Open and Closed Pairwork

Pairwork can be done either in open pairs, where two students do an activity in front of the class while the others listen, or in closed pairs - when all the students are working on an activity in pairs at the same time.

Open pairwork is a useful way to start some activities - it checks that students have understood what they have to do and provides them with a model. For example, the T might set up a What do you say? activity on polite requests in the following way. The students have the prompt situations in their books :

T : OK everyone - look at situation number 1: Youre trying to study but your flatmate is playing music very loudly and its disturbing you. Maria, what do you say, and Paolo, what do you reply?
M : Sorry Paolo. Can you turn the music down? Im trying to study.
P :  Oh OK, sorry.
T  : OK, great. All right, now can you all continue with your partners. Decide what you say in those ten situations.

Having elicited the example in open pairs, the teacher now asks the students to continue the activity in closed pairs, which maximises student involvement and ensures they get as much practice as possible. S/he will probably monitor them while they are working, but in a large class wont be able to hear what everybody says for every situation. So at the end s/he may follow-up the activity by going through all the situations again in open pairs, confirming or correcting their answers, and giving them the chance to ask questions about any alternatives they came up with.

An ELT Glossary Ergative verbs

An ergative verb is one which can be used both transitively (with an object) and intransitively (without an object), and whose object when the transitive construction is used is the same as the subject of the intransitive construction. For example:

Ann closed the door. (Subject Verb Object - transitive)
The door closed. (Subject Verb - intransitive)

I boiled some water for tea. (Subject Verb Object - transitive)
The water boiled. (Subject Verb - intransitive)

David stopped the car. (Subject Verb Object - transitive)
The car stopped. (Subject Verb - intransitive)

In all of these examples, the object of the transitive construction becomes the subject in the intransitive construction.

This means that it is only in the transitive construction that the subject is also the agent - ie the person/thing etc that performs the action. The intransitive construction thus allows us to avoid mentioning the agent. There  a number of cases where this may be useful - for example:

1. If the agent is irrelevant, obvious or expected - eg  The lesson ended  / The snow melted / The plane landed - rather than The teacher ended the lesson / The sun melted the snow / The pilot landed the plane.
2. To create suspense - for example, in a thriller when the writer doesnt want the reader to find out exactly who or what causes the action - eg Suddenly the door opened and ...
3. The speaker/writer wants to focus on a result rather than its cause, possibly because there are too many contributing causes to name - eg The level of inflation increased during May. 

Common ergative verbs include :

a) Verbs describing the start and finish of something  : eg begin  end  finish  start  stop -

     He ended the conversation / The conversation ended.

b) Verbs connected with heating and cooling : eg bake  boil  cook  defrost  freeze  fry 
     melt  roast -    I defrosted the fridge this morning / The fridge defrosted this morning 
     when the power went off.

c) Verbs connected to movement :  eg back  close  crash  drive  fly  open  reverse  run  sail     shut -    John was driving the car at 90 mph / The car was driving at 90 mph

d) Verbs expressing some other type of improvement or damage : eg break  crack  improve       tear   worsen  -    The government has worsened the situation / The situation has worsened
