How To Teach Kids About Different Classroom Objects
Flashcards
Flashcards have become the easiest way of learning about new things and can be used to learn about classroom objects. The activity is to just give kids different flashcards that have different classroom objects printed on them. You should tell them about different classroom objects once, and then ask for a pencil or desk, and watch them skim through the cards to find the right one. They will have a hard time memorizing at first but will eventually learn. Also, it is better that you start with five flashcards in the start because kids shouldn’t be overwhelmed.
Play “Knock Knock”
If you already have the flashcards, you can also play the knock-knock (we will tell you how). To illustrate, you have to collect the flashcards and ask your kid to close their eyes. Now, knock on the window or click the pen and ask them to guess what you are making the sounds with. Once they say the object’s name, ask them to open their eyes and see if they were right. To be honest, it’s a guessing game, but they will harness it with time.
The Touch Game
If you are teaching kids, we are certain you would have some classroom objects at home (yes, in their room). So, ask your kid to touch a crayon or paper and keep playing the game until they learn the majority of words. However, you should only play the game for ten to fifteen minutes a day, so they have time to absorb the knowledge. The best thing about this activity is that it’s exciting and will them hooked.
Hide & Find
We all have played hide and seek, but if you want your kid to learn the classroom object vocabulary, just opt for the hide and find game. With this fun game, take any classroom-related object, such as pencil, crayon, notebook, paper, rubber, or anything else. Then, hide these objects and ask your kids to find the hidden objects and guess what is what (watching them look everywhere for something will be absolutely fun for you too).
Color The Room
There are different drawing sheets available on the internet, and they can actually help kids learn about different objects. For instance, you can download the drawing sheets, give them crayons, and ask them to color in a specific object, such as a book, chair, window, paper, or anything that’s on the paper. This will prompt them to find the object on the drawing sheet, and coloring them will enhance their learning and grasp on certain objects. The best thing about this game is that they will learn about different colors and which color is suitable for a specific object (they cannot color the whiteboard black, right?).
Importance Of Teaching Classroom Object Vocabulary
The first day of school can be fun, exciting, yet scary for kids, but it’s still one of the most important days of their life. However, when students know about different classroom objects before joining the school, they won’t feel as strange on their first day. In addition, it’s always a good learning opportunity for kids since having a grasp on certain vocabulary will help them feel in control and confident.
On top of everything, when students know the object’s name, their learning process will be enhanced, and they will feel more comfortable. Not to forget, it will ease their interaction with classmates and teaches. So, it’s a must to teach them classroom object vocabulary!
