English Language Resource Kit on Values Education at Primary Level:
Happy Halloween
Happy Halloween is held every October. On that day, teachers and students dress up in different costumes to pretend to be their favourite characters. Through participating in various stall games and making themed handcrafts, students can learn new English vocabulary and gain a better understanding of Western culture.
English Days
English Days usually last for two days. During the event, students take part in a school wide hunting game. Clues are placed around the school, and students have to find them and solve the related tasks or problems. Through this activity, students enjoy using English in an authentic and engaging way.
English Competition
Students are divided into four groups to represent their houses in the competition. The representatives from each house answer different types of questions, including phonics, spelling and word guessing tasks. Apart from demonstrating their English knowledge, the competition also enables students to apply their problem solving skills and communication skills as they work together in teams to complete the challenges.
Regular Thematic English Game
The NET teacher holds a regular thematic English game each year to enhance students’ English proficiency. Students are required to find answers from selected songs or videos, depending on the theme. This year, “TV Time!” will continue to be launched on Tuesdays. During the afternoon assembly, the NET teacher introduces target phrases and sentences, and students must locate the correct phrases or sentences from the video clips. These activities encourage students to apply English in authentic and engaging contexts.
Field Trips
The NET teacher and some English teachers bring groups of students on field trips every year to help them learn English in an authentic context and environment. Last year, twelve P.3 students participated in a Pizza Making Workshop organised by Mama Mia! Pizzeria. During the activity, students learned how to write a recipe in English and made their own pizzas using different ingredients. These experiences allow students to apply English in real life situations and develop greater confidence in using the language.
YouTubers
YouTubers is an extra curricular activity for P.3–P.6 students held after school. It is conducted in English and led by the NET teacher together with English teachers. Through joining the team, students learn various skills related to video shooting and editing from school teachers and invited professionals. Students also have multiple opportunities to collaborate with their peers and create their own video clips. Each year, participants join the Filmit Competition organised by the NET Section, where students work in groups to produce a one minute video clip for submission.
General English (Primary 1-6)
Five English lessons per week are allocated to the GE curriculum in P.1–P.6. English teachers adopt appropriate e learning tools, such as Wordwall, Kahoot! and Quizizz, to support students in acquiring English knowledge and facilitating their learning. To help students become more self directed learners, students are encouraged to check the meanings of vocabulary items and play the matching games on Wordwall before starting a new chapter.
To build students’ learning confidence and reduce learning difficulties, tier 2 support is provided for less able students. This year, pull out classes are arranged for some P.3 students, and a co teaching approach is adopted in P.3 English lessons. In addition, morning tutorial lessons are offered to selected P.2 and P.4 students to strengthen their English foundation and improve their language skills.
The English Star Programme is launched for selected P.5 and P.6 students to further enhance their English proficiency and better prepare them for the Pre Secondary 1 Examination. Through targeted learning tasks, focused skills practice, and additional language support, the programme aims to strengthen students’ reading, writing, listening, and speaking abilities, enabling them to build confidence and perform more effectively in the assessment.
To enhance English teachers’ professionalism and promote students’ positive values and attitudes, the school has joined the Learning Hub @ The NET Section offered by the EDB. Through this support, the English team aims to integrate values education into English lessons and activities in order to cultivate students’ positive values and thinking.
NET Scheme
PLPRW (Primary 1-3)
Three English lessons per week are dedicated to the PLPRW programme in P.1–P.3. The programme provides students with opportunities to integrate all language skills — with a particular focus on reading and writing — to make language learning comprehensive, consistent and enjoyable. Six units of work are covered each year, supported by a range of related resources such as big books, small books and phonics books. In addition, e learning resources have been developed to enhance student learning and allow learning to continue beyond the classroom. Multiple teaching strategies are employed, including shared reading, shared writing and guided reading. Students learn in various groupings, including whole class, group, pair and individual settings. Levelled worksheet packages are also used to consolidate learning and cater for students’ diverse abilities.
KEYS2 (Primary 4-6)
Three English lessons per week are dedicated to the Keys2 programme in P.4–P.6. The programme aims to develop students’ reading and writing skills progressively throughout Key Stage 2 by strengthening and building upon the skills acquired in Key Stage 1. Each year level covers four units of work, exposing students to a variety of authentic texts and supporting their writing development through shared writing and process writing. Levelled worksheet packages are designed to help students consolidate their learning and organise their ideas for process writing. The programme also provides writing checklists and self assessment tools to enhance students’ awareness of their own progress. In addition, e learning options are available for students to publish their writing and share it with others.
