LearnEnglish Kids Newsletter

LearnEnglish Kids Newsletter June 2014 Welcome to the latest LearnEnglish Kids newsletter. WORLD CUP! The World Cup begins on June 12th, and we have lots of football activities for children to enjoy.  Kids can listen to a story and song about football, then they can try some of our football activities to have fun and practise their English at the same time. They will really love our Beat the keeper game to test their football vocabulary! Finally, if your children are members of the site, they can write about football and the World Cup on our special Football your turn.    RAMADAN Ramadan is an important time of year in the Islamic calendar and starts on June 28th.  Children can read a story and sing a song about Ramadan, to find out about some of the things people do at this time. All of our songs and stories come with a free printable worksheet to complete. Kids can also play a game to learn words connected with Ramadan.   WORLD OCEANS DAY World Oceans Day is on June 8th. Students will enjoy our story about a fish called Angel and the Great Barrier Reef. They can also sing a song about underwater animals and complete the printable worksheets.  Children will love our sea animal games and activities. Younger kids will particularly like this Paint it game and older kids can try this Find the definitions game.  FAMILY TIME International Children's Day is on June 1st and Father's Day is on June 15th. For Father's Day, watch our My dad story.
