How to teach English to Children with puppets

[MuppetVoicesAndMore]

An interesting idea. But you need talented people to execute it properly. You two just don't quite have the skills necessary for it to work.

The backbencher pup must have learned the most. D:

I really liked your idea. I am also trying to use puppets to teach English. I wanted to use puppets to teach stories. However, I teach much older kids. Any comments to what to do with that?

the 4 year old puppeteers could easily have role played teachers, if they wished.

This gives me further evidence against our school system, which creates a huge social distinction between teachers and students.

puppets are fun. a few weeks ago, I met two 4 year olds, who were almost monosyllabic in their responses. But later on in the day, they were using hand puppets, and immediately were able to speak fluently and put on adult voices.

I agree. This is a great method however I would really like to see a demonstration of how this is done in a classroom setting. If you can show us that would be great.

Great job otherwise!

Very cool video. I teach in Taiwan and use a puppet every day. The kids love it - even though my mouth moves when the puppet speaks!

hiii.....im sure you have good puppets...that's great and inspiring idea, teaching with puppets..but anyway, could you please show us the real teaching, like simulation using puppet but the teller is just 1 person using some puppets?...it would be so pleasing if we exchange our experience of teaching....

Great video. I will be sharing it with my team of teachers. Keep up the good work!

Thank you! I can send you written tips as well. Where are you in the world? I'm in Sao Paulo, Brazil as you have seen in the video. I wish you great puppeteering in your classes!

Using puppets would help with listening comprehension because they won't be able to rely on visual cues from facial expressions.

[buddythefrog]

It sure does cause children usually look at the puppets instead of looking at us. Wish you great classes! Where do you teach?

[alaqeed2000]

it was useful.. I'll try to use it in my classes.

[buddythefrog]

Go for it! Let me know how it went. Have great classes with the puppets!
