A worksheet with two tasks:

First the students have to solve the code to find out who the pictures belong to (what family members are they). Second, they have to solve the crossword puzzle. They can colour the pictures at the end of the tasks.

This is a listening exercise on age. Give a copy of the worksheet and four numbers. The students should stick the numbers in the right square, according to what they hear. I included the four numbers in black and white (if you want your students to colour them afterwards) and already coloured.

I will make the mp3 file of this exercise here available as soon as possible. However, you can also do this listening exercise without the file - you can tell the ages yourself. As an example: "Hi. I'm Sarah. I'm 6." (this is the kind of language in the audio file).

A worksheet I created to exercise my students on the written form of colours. First they have to find the words in the wordsearch (they have to recognize a colour when they see it written). You can tell them to colour the word with its colour (e.g. if they find "RED", they should mark it with a red crayon).

The second exercise is a crossword puzzle. At this stage, they should remember the written word to be able to make the crosswords. If they are still insecure, they can always look at the exercise above to guide them.

The last exercise is only about telling the students' favourite colour. You can practice this orally first and then they must write it. They have two children to guide them in the answer.

I think this is a good way to exercise the written form of colours, because it's funny for them, they enjoy solving this kind of puzzles and so they become more motivated and learn better!

Colours included: blue, yellow, brown, orange, green, black, red, white, purple, pink and grey (both in the wordsearch and in the crossword puzzle).

A picture of a tree with falling leaves you can use for introducing the season to your students. You can also use it to make a wall-display: give each student a leaf and instruct them to write a word related to that season. Then each student can stick his/her leaf on the tree.

If you want your students to colour the leaf, simply take away the coloured leafs (the file is editable) and give them a black and white leaf.
