LearnEnglish Kids newsletter June 2020 Hi and welcome to our June newsletter. Many children are still learning at home this month, and you'll find ideas to help you support them in our Parents section, on our Facebook page and with an online course. We've also selected some topical resources for you and your learners to enjoy.  Best wishes, The LearnEnglish Kids team GLOBAL DAY OF PARENTS Celebrate the Global Day of Parents with us on 1 June! The last few months have been challenging for many parents. You'll find lots of tips and advice in our Parents section and on the British Council's LearnEnglish Parents Facebook page.  You may also be interested in a free short online course on Future Learn. English in Early Childhood, starting on 22 June, is for parents and practitioners and will explore how young children learn English. Happy Global Day of Parents! WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY AND WORLD OCEANS DAY With World Environment Day on 5 June and World Oceans Day on the 8th, this is definitely a month to think about environmental issues.  Kids can listen and sing along to Do your best, a brand-new song about saving the planet, and watch a video about a 12-year-old Plastic ocean campaigner. You'll find these and lots of other resources, including stories, games and printables, in our Environment topic.    UN WORLD REFUGEE DAY UN World Refugee Day, on 20 June, is dedicated to raising awareness of the situation of refugees throughout the world.  Your learners can find out about the challenges faced by a Syrian refugee family who settled in Australia in our Video zone. They can also watch a video about Two boys from Syria and Germany. Each video comes with online and downloadable exercises, to help kids understand.
