English language teaching methods and approaches

Sabrina’s Weblog English lesson plans with color pictures / English lesson plans / english-lesson-plan.com We have received a lot of feedback from our partner teachers who cited color pictures as the best way to introduce new vocabulary. Each English lesson starts with the exercise where students should match a written word with the picture. Unlike translation and explanation, the visual association provides the fastest way to the students’ memory. Upon hearing or seeing a new word, students immediately associate it with a particular image, rather than translation or definition. This allows students to react quicker when they see or hear a new word. The pictures have been drawn by the professional painters who did their best to deliver distinct images of the things and concepts on several popular topics. You can download a free sample ESL lesson plan with pictures to try it out with your students, or you can download all English lesson plans in bulk to provide yourself with the printable ready-made ESL lesson plans for at least half a year of intensive teaching.
