Seeking Curriculum Ideas for Teaching Spoken English and Etiquette to Kids Aged 5-12

zeedkwy
Friends, would anyone be able to enumerate topics to be included as part of the curriculum for spoken English for children aged 5 to 12 years? I intend to start spoken English classes for children and plan on developing my own curriculum; hence, I would appreciate it if I could get guidelines on what to include in it.

Etiquette Training and Communication Skills

Also, the same for etiquette training and communication skills for children. I want to be able to deliver a perfectly professional and serious module that would prepare the kids really well to speak fluently, communicate effectively, and be appreciated for their etiquette.

May we know what your background is? How large will your classes be, and whether they will be for a mixed-age group from 5 to 12? Please access http://improve-english-spoken.blogsp...-children.html, which has some useful tips.

Also, kindly read material at http://britishcouncil.org <link updated to site home> (https://www.citehr.com//results.php?...ritish Council | https://www.google.com/search?q=How ...ritish Council) and digest its content about how children learn.

I am greatly obliged by your prompt response to my query. It has certainly given me a rough idea, but I need to prepare a detailed day-to-day curriculum. Thank you very much for your input.

Thank you for your prompt response. I am a pre-primary teacher at one of the preschools in Mumbai. I have only just started to work on this idea and would welcome advice on what age groups could ideally be clubbed together in a class. I had a look at the website and found it very helpful. Would it be possible to help me with some information on etiquette training and communication skills as well?

Simhan is right. There is loads of material on teaching English and language games for all types: spoken, written, listening, and reading. The British Council Library now offers an online membership option, which will deliver and pick up books. They have a lot of books on the subject too.

Hope you manage to find what you need to plan your curriculum. Just remember to stay with the sequence of LSRW (Listening, Speaking, Reading, Writing).

All the best!
