Jobs and Occupations Dominoes and Riddles Activity – for ESL, Kindergarten and Primary Students Fully Editable Version

FULLY EDITABLE VERSION:

This is a whole class activity that can be done in groups or pairs. I love doing this as its a real chance for students to engage with their work and for the teacher to target help where it is needed. A self directed learning win!!

• This is a whole class activity that can be done in groups or pairs.
• Students are given a board and the fruit/description and have to match the description to the fruit and glue it to the board
• They go horizontal across the top and the bottom and vertically along the sides.
• When you ( or the students) cut out the dominoes make sure there is a picture AND a description on the domino ( dominoes have two sides)
• Make sure the students know how to glue them as sometimes they will stick them all at the top.
• Once they have finished, they can complete the centre part of the board and describe the jobs they can see and the job they would like to do. ( everyone says YouTuber!)
• I will add a started version at the bottom to give a rubric of sorts. ( the board should be printed on A3 and the dominoes on A4. )

I love doing this activity, it can be totally self directed by the students and they really practice reading and comprehension skills from this. It is a whole class activity that can be done in groups, pairs or individual. I much prefer giving it as an individual task so students have their own work to present and take home.

I have a video guide for you, which as this can be a little confusing i suggest you at least skip through it, but i will put the main details below as well.
