What style is it? For these kinds of learners, it is not enough to read or hear information to learn. They have to do the information to remember. They learn best through different activities. For these learners it may be difficult to sit still for a long class.*a) kinaesthetic learners

What style is it? These learners learn best through hearing information. They enjoy discussions and lectures. They like to talk about things they learned. These learners remember better when they read something aloud or listen to a tape recorder. *a) auditory learners

What style is it? These learners need to see things to learn better. It helps if they see the teacher’s face and body language during class. They may think in pictures, and learn best from Handouts and videos. During a lesson, these learners like to take notes. *a) visual learners

What task is it? Put similar words into groups of three-two with one sound, and one with a different (although similar) sound. Or you could have groups of four or five which contain the same sound, but only one that‘s different. For example: meet, seat, sit (for vowels), plays, pace, space (for consonants). *a) Odd One Out

What task is it? This is one of the easiest ways to focus on particular pairs of sounds. A Bingo card commonly has 5 x 5 squares, so you can use 25 words (12 minimal pairs, or more than two words for some sounds). One or more spaces on each card could be a ―free‖ spot, or you could change the size, maybe to 4 x 4. (I have found that 25 words works well for a full lesson and everyone will be able to learn them all by the end.) *a) Minimal Pairs Bingo

What task is it? When someone is genuinely whispering, and therefore not using their voice, it‘s nearly impossible to hear the difference between some words. For example: ―bit‖ and ―pit.‖ In a social situation where whispering is used we rely on context to fill out the meaning. *a) Chinese Whispers

What task is it? You could have your minimal pairs on flashcards or you could simply write two (or more) words at a time on the board. Create two teams and then pair pupils up with a member of the opposite team. In turn, each pair goes to stand at the back of the room, looking down an aisle at the board. When you call one of the minimal pairs out, the pair races to the front to touch the correct word (the odd word out) on the board or grab the appropriate flashcard. Pupils from the winning team could have a turn at calling the words for others to run to. *a) Run and Grab

What task is it? Younger pupils especially enjoy any activity that involves movement. Designate particular movements to particular sounds, as lively or as gentle as you like. For instance, they could be sitting at their desks and raise a hand, clap or stand up when they hear a particular sound, or they could be standing in a space and jump or run in response to sounds. *a) Sound TPR (Total Physical Response)
