Read the following strategies for teaching English as an additional
language to public school children:
1. Explain a word to the students drawing on the blackboard.
Then ask them to copy the word and have them recite it out
loud.
2. Ask students to look at pictures of two children and add to
the speech bubbles what they think the characters might be
saying to each other.
3. Create a mnemonic device in the students’ native language so
that they memorize the grammar rules better.
4. Choose a video that shows how people in a specific country
dress and behave and ask students to perform a parody of
these characteristics.
5. Have students stand up and start by saying "Simon says,
hands on head" while placing your hands on your head. The
students who don’t imitate you correctly or are too slow
should sit down and stay out of the game.

parameters published by the Municipal Secretariat of Education,
São Paulo (2019).
