Daily Routine in the English class

These are one of the most important activities since they are repeated daily for long periods of time, three weeks for example. They allow the children to feel sure about what they are working on, what they will learn in the future or what they have already learnt. Thanks to routines, students gain confidente, increse their self-esteem and decrease their insecurity. The child isn´t afraid to participate or communicate with the teacher or his-her classmates.

With Daily Routine, children work on expressions that they can incorporate day to day through questions: How are you? How do you feel?, commands: Clean the board, pick up, throw away, tidy up…, and routines such as greetings, prayer, how many are in the class, who is missing, the weather, going to the bathroom and songs.

All of these go along with specific actions in a specific space, the English Corner, sitting in a circle, arms closed, being quiet… This way the children learn the activity and its response by intuition and as a result will improve their comprehension and awareness.
