    reading.

    For example, a picture of an elephant may be drawn or stuck

    on a card and the word elephant written underneath it or on

    a different card.

    The students are encouraged to associate the pictures and

    the words through various look and say activities and games.

    Ask students to look at the picture and say the word.

    Then they look at the word and say it again.

    After presenting a number of words with pictures that

    the students already know, ask for volunteers to come out

    and match pictures and words.

    When the students have learnt to read the words, you can

    divide them into teams and play reading games using the

    flashcards.
