Gone Fishing

Een spel waarin kinderen woorden leren

1) Learning objectives: Stimulate children’s interests in English learning, enlarge their vocabulary, and improve their abilities of observation, attentiveness, and memory.

2) Theoretical guidance: Research finds out that children at the top class in a kindergarten can concentrate for 15 minutes, while concentration plays an important role in children’s knowledge, skills and life experience learning. Therefore, learning content should focus on children’s interests and learning forms should also be diversified to attract children’s attention and to get the best learning result.

3) Creative learning: The game “Gone Fishing” centers on the characteristic that children love fishing games and integrates learning content to the game to enhance children’s words comprehension and memory and improve their attentiveness and observation ability.

4) Suggestions for parents: Concentration is fundamental for new knowledge learning. Therefore, you need to draw children’s attention first to help with their English learning, while game is one of the best ways to draw their attention. For example, parents can play “Treasure Hunt” with children to hide English words in a safe place and ask children to find them. Such games can draw children’s attention for a long time with a good learning result.
