We hear this sort of thing everyday ...
- Drilling vocabulary can be so boring
- How do I get my students to talk in the target language?
- I need quick and easy games for practicing French, German, Spanish etc.
- My classes are mixed ability
Simple example, teaching body parts in French
Let's say you're teaching body parts in French. You've probably got the words on the whiteboard (blackboard for traditionalists), on handouts, or perhaps you've drawn a dodgy picture of a French person sporting a beret, stripy shirt, and a string of onions (aren't stereotypes great!). Now what?
OK. What if I gave you a set of dice with pictures of body parts on them?, Then I told you to give the dice to the students, tell them to roll the dice, and practice saying the body part that they have just rolled ...
Mon pied
Mes yeux
Mes oreilles ... etc.
Isn't that more fun than drilling? By the way, the dice are just pictures, so you could use them to teach any first or second language!
Now, what if I gave you dice with pictures in 18 different curriculum topics. Imagine the combinations and applications for language practice. Actually, you don't have to because we've already done a lot of imagining ourselves and come up with loads of free lesson ideas, and workbooks with 40 weeks of lesson plans.
The teaching ideas and teacher resources you'll find on this website will show you how to use Talking Dice to teach any first or second language, quickly and easily, with no extra planning, and minimal teacher input.
Talking Dice fit into your current lessons in minutes. You've already done the hard work - planning your lessons - so you just need to give them the dice and let their imagination roll.
OK, I want to get started?
To get started , you just need some dice topics and a bit of imagination.
