小学校英語カリキュラム / レッスンプラン

先生が教えたいものではなく、子どもが言いたいものを中心に！

歌＆ゲームで英語を習う

そして。。。

プロジェクトで英語を使う！

カリキュラムの使い方

これはGenkiEnglish.comの小学校英語カリキュラムです。現在北海道から沖縄まで、多くの小学校が使っています。

テーマを選ぶときに、実際に日本の小学生に聞きました。全国を周りながら、何百人の小学生と一緒に給食を食べて、彼らが僕にたずねたいことを記録しました。和製英語や訳せないもの（たとえば、”いただきます”）を除いて、このテーマになりました。

必ず１年生から５年生の子どもはこのカリキュラムを楽しめます。しかし、６年生の場合では、使えるクラスも、使えないクラスもあります。『6年生はどうしよう？』の記事をご覧ください。

テーマの順番は”簡単”や”すこしチャレンジ”をバランスよく紹介しますが、順番を変える、テーマを入れる、外す、をしても大丈夫です。それぞれのクラスは違うので、具体的なカリキュラムを進めるより、子供の興味や能力に合わせてカリキュラムを変えればいいです。

復習の時間はとても大事。授業の最初の5分間に、歌で前の授業の英語を復習してください。カリキュラムの中に復習だけの授業もたくさん入れてください。

それぞれのテーマは1つの英語の質問と8個の答えがあります。45分の授業の場合では、これはちょうどいいです。

このカリキュラムの『鍵』は歌です。一回教えて、毎日聴く復習ができます、たとえば昼放送、掃除や朝礼の時間に放送するのはお勧めです。

ＧｅｎｋｉＥｎｇｌｉｓｈは以下のサポートをします。
- ホームページからダウンロードができる絵カード
- 英語を覚えやすくするため、家で復習をするためのＧｅｎｋｉＥｎｇｌｉｓｈオリジナル歌
- 自分の英語の発音に自信がない先生のためのＣＤＲＯＭ発音ガイド
- 教室で使える英語の練習ゲーム

45分の授業は以下の順番にすればいいです：
- １．復習・ウォームアップ　（３～５分）
- ２．新しい語彙の紹介　（１５～２０分）、歌を教えることも含めて
- 　　　a) 新しい単語を教える （CDをパソコンに入れ、ソフトを使う。もしくは絵カードを使う。）
- 　　　b) 音楽無しで、“アカペラ”で歌を教える
- 　　　c) 最後にCDで一緒に歌って、踊って！音楽を最後に使えば凄く楽しくなりますよ！　
- ３．ゲームで新しい語彙の練習　（１５～２０分）
- Thank you 歌でサヨナラ挨拶
- 詳しくは”45分の楽しい授業”の記事に書いています
