Flash cards

Using flash cards with young learners

Flash cards are a simple, versatile, yet often

under-exploited resource. I would like to

offer some reasons for using flash cards and

a selection of activities for use in the Young

Learner classroom, although some of the

activities could also be used with fun-loving,

lower level adult classes.

Why use flash cards?

Howard Gardner's multiple intelligence

theory reminds teachers that there are many

types of learners within any one class.

Gardner's research indicates that teachers

should aim to appeal to all the different

learner types at some point during the

course. It is particularly important to appeal

to visual learners, as a very high proportion

of learners have this type of intelligence.

Flash cards can be bright and colorful and

make a real impact on visual learners. Many

of the activities outlined below will also

appeal to kin-aesthetic learners.

Action Flashcards – Set A – ESL Flashcards

For children at reading age, flash cards can be

used in conjunction with word cards. These are

simply cards that display the written word. Word

cards should be introduced well after the

pictorial cards so as not to interfere with correct

pronunciation.

Flash cards are a really handy resource to have

and can be useful at every stage of the class.

They are a great way to present, practise and

recycle vocabulary and when students become

familiar with the activities used in class, they can

be given out to early-finishers to use in small

groups.

I sometimes get the students to make their own

sets of mini flash cards that can be taken home

for them to play with, with parents and siblings.

Where to get flash cards?

Buy them. Some course books provide a

supplementary pack of flash cards or they can

be bought in sets.

Make them yourself. If you don't have access to

professionally produced flash cards, don't

worry, it's really easy to make your own even if

you're not very artistic.

You can use pictures from magazines, draw

simple pictures or copy from the internet or clipart.

The most important thing is to make sure they

are all of the same size, on card (different

colors for different sets) so you can't see

through them.

If possible you can laminate the sets as you

make them and they will last for years. The

advantage of making your own, apart from the

fact that they're cheap and yours to keep, is

that you can make sets for your specific needs.

You may like to make a set to use in

conjunction with a story book or graded reader,

or even to accompany project work.

Students make them. I have recently begun to

incorporate the production of flash cards into

the classroom.

After introducing a new lexical set, using realia

or the course book, ask students to produce

the flash cards for you. Give each one an item

to draw. They can be mounted on card to make

the set.

Activities for using flash cards

I have divided the activities into the following

categories: Memory, drilling, identification and

TPR activities

Memory activities

Memory Tester

Place a selection of flash cards on the floor in a circle.

Students have one minute to memorize the cards.

In groups, they have two minutes to write as

many of the names as they can remember.

TPR activities

Point or race to the flash cards

Stick flash cards around the class.

Say one of them and students point or race to it

Students can then give the instructions to

classmates.

ou can extend this by saying 'hop to the cat' or

even 'if you have blonde hair, swim to the fish' etc.

You can also incorporate flash cards into a

game of Simon Says. 'Simon says, jump to the

T-shirt' etc.

Drilling activities

Invisible Flash cards

Stick nine flash cards on the board and draw a

grid around them.

Use a pen or a pointer to drill the nine words.

Always point to the flash card you are drilling.

Gradually remove the flash cards but continue

to drill and point to the grid where the flash

card was.

When the first card is removed and you point

to the blank space, nod your head to

encourage children to say the word of the

removed flash card.

Students should remember and continue as if

the flash cards were still there. They seem to

be amazed that they can remember the

pictures.

Depending on the age group I then put the

flash cards back in the right place on the grid,

asking the children where they go, or I ask

students to come up and write the word in the

correct place on the grid.

Identification activities

Reveal the word

Cover the flash card or word card with a piece

of card and slowly reveal it.

Students guess which one it is.

Once the card is shown, chorally drill the word

with the group using different intonation and

silly voices to keep it fun.

Vary the volume too, whisper and shout the

words. Children will automatically copy your

voice.

Alternatively, flip the card over very quickly so

the children just get a quick glimpse.

Repeat until they have guessed the word.
