The four teams took part in 3 parts of the
festival: Drawing pictures, Pass the secret and Speaking.
In the first part, the pupils listened to a
short text in which five details illustrated and then, drew a picture. This
part aimed at English listening skill together with drawing skills. The
children showed beautiful pictures after thirty minutes.
In the second part,
five members in each team stood in a line, from 1 to 5. the pupil number 1
received a piece of paper with 5 word phrases or statements. He/She whispered
the information to the pupil number 2. Then the pupil number 2 whispered the
information to the pupil number 3. The procedure continued to the pupil number
5. That pupil rewrote the information they heard in a paper. This activity required
pupils’ reading comprehension skill, memorizing ability as well as writing
skill.
For the third part,
each team took turn to choose a number of a picture inside the balloon on a
tree. Then they had 5 minutes to build-up a short conversation about the
picture. Each team had two turns to talk. Thanks to this activity, we could see
how well they can make short conversations as naturally as possible.
After more than two
hours, the festival ended in the joyfulness of the pupils and teachers. They
did realize what they need to improve in their teaching and learning so that
they could better their English skills. With the aim to enhance pupils’
interest in learning English, English festivals like this is going to be held
