Hello 👋 it's nice to meet you!
Hello, I am Ben. I am the native English auxiliar de conversation for the school year 2021-22. I am from New Zealand. I have been living around the world for the last 10 years (France, Japan, South Korea, the Netherlands..).
I help in the Sciences classes with the native Spanish teachers from the school. It is a pleasure to be with the students at this school and working to help them communicate better in English.
Here are some of the worksheets and resources that I have made to help the students learn the science concepts and use English in the classroom.
👁 Parts of the Body
👁 Parts of the Body
A matching exercise to practice students' reading skills as they identify actions they can take to protect their eyes.
Designed to be used over several classes, this lapbook taught food vocabulary, a simple dialogue to improve communicative English about eating habits and the food pyramid.
🏔 Landscapes
🏔 Landscapes
A info-gap exercise for students to do in pairs - as each student only has half of the information. Students complete each others' gaps by describing the weather in different parts of Spain.
A puzzle to teach the parts of the layers of atmosphere. This develops students' reading skills as they match images with the titles and descriptions. This also helps students to practice their motor skills and using scissors and glue.
A puzzle to teach the water cycle. The students are required to develop reading skills as they identify the different steps of the process.
A gap-fill to improve students' vocabulary skills about talking about the weather / weather phenomenon.
🌱 Living Things: Plants and Animals
🌱 Living Things: Plants and Animals
A mini flipbook of animals and animal body parts. There is a youtube video about how to make this into an 8-page book.
A puzzle of the different parts of the plant (stem, flower, fruit, roots, leaf).
A two-part exercise to teach the parts of the flower. This developped students' reading skills as they match each name with the definition. Then they cut out a puzzle of the plants
