To teach English vowel sounds and letter which don't exist in the Portuguese alphabet

Stick the paper with letters on the walls around the classroom before the students arrive.

 

Pre-teach? (PT?):

 

Selected letters of the alphabet

 

Teacher's instructions (TI):

 

Write the letters on the board and drill them.

 

Point to me and say in a loud voice "I" and then move to stand in front of the letter 'I' on the wall. Say "I" again and beckon all the students over to where I'm standing. Now say "Y" and move to the letter "Y". Teacher moves to a neutral area and says the letters - students have to move around and stand in front of the letter you say. Finish activity after 5 minutes.

"Stand up", "See these letters" (indicate where the letters are). "Everyone stand up" (use gestures to indicate what this means). "Ok! - sit down please" and indicate what you want them to do if necessary.
