Bottlecap ABC words (using authentic material in
teaching English)
Do you use plastic bottle caps in your classroom?
They can be useful to use for educational purposes. My
second grades have just finished learning ABC and now it’s time to practice the
letters through games, activities, and tasks. We collected plastic bottle caps
and printed ABC words to stick or glue them on bottle caps. You can conduct several fun activities with
them.
1. Group
work:
Divide the learners into 3-4 groups, give those ABC
bottle cap words and ask them to put them in alphabetical order.
2. Pair
work:
Pairs choose the word with closed eyes then; in turn,
they should read the word, say the beginning letter and translate it into the
mother tongue.
3. Individual
work: “I have, who has?” game
Students, one by one choose the words and play “I
have…who has…” game.
For example, a student who has the word “apple” should
ask: “ I have the word with “A” who has the word with “B”? And so on. It can be played as a chain drill.
