Fishing game for learning English words. List of questions for the development of oral speech of Rybak students in English with transcription

Parents often wonder how to teach their little child English. Our advice is not to panic. There are many different techniques that will help kids master learning or practicing English words.

Note: You can read about game-based techniques in the “ “ section.

If your child has already mastered words in English on a certain topic, then you can use the game “Fishing” to practice words.

Note: You can get acquainted with the vocabulary in English on various topics in the section " "

For example, with kids who have already learned the names of some animals, you can practice words in the game “Fishing” (Fishing game). In this universal game, you can generally train many different words.

What needs to be done?

We cut up “Animals” cards (you can print them out, or you can draw them yourself). Take a sheet of blue cardboard, or draw a lake on a white sheet. We attach a clothespin to each card (for fishing with a magnet). Turn it over so that the picture is not visible. We make a fishing rod using a stick and a magnet on a thread, and begin to “catch fish”:

— I’m fishing! (I'm fishing!)
- I'm catching! (I catch!)
-What are you catching? (What are you catching?)
- I’m catching a... (listing of animals in English) (I catch..)

Fishing game for learning English words

If parents don’t have time to independently make parts for the game, then in any children’s store you can purchase a ready-made “Fishing” game; all you have to do is attach cards of the required theme:

“I had heard about conversation clubs for a long time, but it seemed like a rather strange activity to me. I didn’t understand what you could chat about with strangers, and even in broken English. However, the first session got me involved from the very first minutes. In such conversations, we need a formative center, bright and perky. Sean, a native speaker, turned out to be just that. In a matter of seconds, he involved all the participants in a single game. Thank you very much to Sean, for the pleasure of communication. Thank you to Irina, for another push from your comfort zone into a pleasant floundering in an unfamiliar environment. I study individually with an Australian teacher, but group experience is important and needed along with other types of practice. I'll be happy to continue. Thanks to the organizers"​

Onlinewell: “Learning to read in English with pleasure”: « Thanks to all the creators of the course for this opportunity!!! What happened is a very significant event for me - I really started reading (and continue to do so with pleasure) in English ke! This is amazing, because I was afraid to get close to books in English, even looking at small information and English-language sites caused significant difficulties.”

“I have always been convinced that reading books in a language foreign to me is an extremely impossible task for me, but thanks to experienced teachers and my wonderful support group (training participants with whom I was in the group), I discovered a unique the opportunity to read and also get great pleasure from reading.»

Elya Alieva

Online course “ENGLISH THROUGH SELF-DEVELOPMENT”: “I began to use English more for practical tasks. For example, I recently selected an offer for the sale of a guitar on a London classifieds website, corresponded with the sellers myself, and bought a legendary guitar from an English musical family in London. We even sat and talked with them “for life.” This is a small victory for me! »

Mikhail Chukanov

Online course “Learning to read in English with pleasure”:“Seriously, if someone had told me a couple of months ago that I would devote every evening to reading in English, I would have been very surprised. Previously, for me it was more torture than pleasure, more a necessity than a choice.”

Olga Pashkevich

I don’t know why, but I was drawn to fish...

If you are interested in fishing or just the restaurant business, then you just need to look at the selection: names of fish (different species) in English with translation and transcription. I would like to warn you right away that transcription is not provided everywhere, since I simply couldn’t find one. You say, why the hell do I need to know the name of 70 fish? In principle, you don’t need to know them, with the exception of the first two categories of people whom I mentioned at the very beginning.

The site already has selections that are somehow related to food: , Drinks in English with translation - . But in restaurants you can often find various fish dishes, the names of which, for me personally, were a mystery. Once, while walking with a foreigner in a supermarket, he asked me: “What kind of fish is this?” I was a little “stupid”, because I really had no idea how to say “crucian carp” in English, but did you know?

There are many fish in the selection whose names I am hearing for the first time. Why didn't I delete them? Maybe it’s just me who doesn’t understand fish, but others know them? In any case, it is easier to delete than to create. The dictionary “names of fish in English with translation” is really rare and not entirely relevant for the majority of “residents” of this site, but I love such collections, I do not know why…

If you haven't noticed, I tried to use a stylistic device at the beginning and at the end of the mini description (though I forgot what it's called).

I hope you enjoyed my previous English lessons from Hawaii? Today is Sunday, and the local population went to the campsite early in the morning to sail on yachts and fish. And then there’s the mushroom rain... so beautiful! Fishing in Hawaii is sacred. And if we're talking about fishing, let's combine business with pleasure and continue our English lessons from the island of Kawaii.

Today I'll give you three common English idioms that involve either "fishing", "rod" or "fish". There are similar idioms in Russian, for example, “fall for the bait” or “on the hook.” But there are other English idioms that are translated into Russian completely differently than they sound in English, for example: “feel at ease” or “ask for a compliment.” How do you say this in English, and how is fishing involved? Interesting? In this case, watch another story from the series of short English lessons from Hawaii, and everything will become clear to you.

English idioms from fishing:

It's a sunshower. - It's raining mushrooms.
Sunshower - mushroom rain.
To fall for something hook, line and sinker. – Buy into something, believe, fall for the bait.
Hook - hook
Line - fishing line
Sinker - sinker
She bought it. - She bought it. (to buy-bought-bought)
She fell for the story hook, line and sinker. “She bought the story, the promise.”
To feel like a fish out of water. – Feeling out of place (like a fish out of water).
To fish for a compliment - to ask for a compliment.

- How do you like my hat? - How do you like my hat?
— Are you fishing for a compliment? – Are you asking for a compliment?

— I don’t speak English so well. – I don’t speak English very well.
— Oh, your English is wonderful. Your English is perfect. - Yes you! You speak beautifully.
- Thank you. I hope I wasn’t fishing for a compliment. – Thank you, I hope I didn’t ask for a compliment.

Happy fishing! — Happy fishing!
