Fun English Games: Interactive Learning for Kids
Hello, I’m Lucía Blanes Guillem, and I’m going to evaluate an ICT resource.
I have chosen this website:
Fun English Games.
It is very easy to pronounce and remember because “Fun,” “English,” and “Games” are three words that everyone understands, even if we don’t know English.
And this is the link:
https://www.funenglishgames.com/
It is a tool that allows us to jump to a new location by clicking on it; that is, it connects different web pages. Also, it allows you to share information or view shared info. Because of this, the link is very useful and helps us to obtain information.
Well, now I’m going to focus on the page.
In Fun English Games, there are 7 sections. These are: (IMAGE)
Games Section
First, I’m going to talk about the Games section.
Games are a new way to learn and incorporate a high degree of interactivity in the classroom.
Some researchers say that the use of computers can enhance foreign language learning because students believe that it is an attractive learning method.
- Fun English Games contains a wide variety of learning practice exercises for children to enjoy and learn English interactively.
- Games include many topics, for example: reading, writing, grammar, spelling, poetry, debate, punctuation, dictionary usage, sentence structure, and more.
Activities and Worksheets
Secondly, I’m going to talk about Activities and Worksheets.
These sections help teachers because they offer a lot of ideas to make lessons more dynamic and practical.
All activities can serve to integrate the four skills in a global way.
For example, this activity (SONGS) can serve to integrate listening with other skills like writing or speaking, and, thanks to songs, students can improve their oral comprehension skills.
These sections help teachers too: Quizzes and Funny Stuff, because there are comic activities to include in their lessons, as for example, funny quizzes related to vocabulary or grammar.
Videos Section
Furthermore, we find a section called Videos, where the kids can find lots of videos about grammar and vocabulary or just to entertain themselves.
Topics Section
Finally, in Topics, we can find a great variety of themes to learn about them, as for example…
To sum up, due to all the things I have explained before, I consider that Fun English Games is a perfect website because you can find a wide range of free teaching resources that help students learn English in a different and interactive way and help teachers to have more ideas to design creative, different, and dynamic lessons.
In addition, as I said before, there is a wide variety of activities that allow the students to improve their weaknesses and to reinforce their strengths.
In conclusion, I think that this web page is a good tool and easy to understand for children who are studying primary school, and it helps to learn English in a different way. The activities, especially quizzes and fun stuff, create a good atmosphere in the classroom where children interact with each other and learn different skills. Besides, they can also enjoy the page at home.
