In those days, the English word “ gown" By the early 20th century "gown" & " frock" have become synonymous with "dress", although "gown" was more often used to describe formal, long clothing made of heavy fabric, while "dress" and "frock" were used to describe informal, short clothing made of light and flowing fabric.

Of course, the best way to quickly and efficiently teach a child new material is to seek help from a professional. Experienced staff of modern linguistic schools can find an approach even to the smallest and most fastidious students. But if you have weighed the pros and cons and decided to tackle this issue yourself, then in our article you can find tips on how to do it correctly.

Study methods

To help your baby remember the names of clothes faster, you shouldn’t just try to memorize them. This approach will only confuse the child and through

he won't even remember what you think he learned. Use different techniques that can make learning interesting and understandable.

  • Cards. Today, the shelves of specialized stores offer us a wide selection of teaching aids and auxiliary posters, cubes and many other items for easy foreign language teaching for young children. Cards with thematic pictures are perfect for little ones. It is worth taking into account the opinion of scientists who unanimously declare that visualization and associative series are the best memory aides.
  • Using a “live” example. This option is perfect if the child refuses to sit at the table and learn new words. Every time you get dressed for kindergarten, the yard or a visit, ask your child what he is wearing, then speak in English. Each time add 1 - 2 words unknown to him and repeat those previously learned. You will see, unnoticed by the child, new English-language units will appear in his arsenal.
  • A game. Nothing can captivate little students like play. Dress up dolls with your daughter; if you have a growing up man, study the components of the uniforms of soldiers and firefighters. This way you will significantly speed up the educational process, and your child will learn with pleasure.
  • Agreements. Another unusual and effective technique. It focuses on learning through short poems. Thanks to rhyme, the child quickly remembers new words.

For example:

  • I'm not afraid of the cold and strong wind,
  • After all, I have a warm sweater.
  • I'm afraid of getting my shoes dirty
  • Shoes in English - shoes.

The above methods are recognized as effective and are used all over the world by specialists with many years of experience. Of course, each child requires an individual approach, but these techniques are universal and are included in language course many modern clubs and schools.

Topic: English clothes for children can turn an ordinary lesson into an interesting activity in which even the laziest students will be involved. Just remember, for an in-depth and complete study of the English language, you need not only to expand your vocabulary, but to pay attention to articulation - correct pronunciation, transcription will help you with this. Also observe spelling - learn to write the words you have learned correctly. The child must be able to compose at least simple grammatical structures. Start with phrases, gradually increasing the level of difficulty, build sentences.

So which words should you pay attention to first? In English, like Russian, items of clothing are classified. Conventionally, we can distinguish men's and women's clothing, seasonal items (winter, spring, summer, autumn). First of all, it is worth learning the most common words that are well known to everyone:

  • Trousers – trousers/trousers
  • Shirt - shirt
  • Socks
  • Dress - dress
  • Skirt - skirt
  • Blouse - blouse
  • Jacket - jacket
  • Coat - coat
  • Cap - hat
  • Scarf - scarf

Get a written dictionary in which you will write down the words you have learned. For convenience and to make the child more interested in the process, use stickers with images of clothing items or magazine clippings. Make the notebook bright and easy to navigate, in case your child forgets a word and decides to use a hint.

“Clothes” - this topic is not only necessary to study, but also one of the most interesting. The child develops an understanding of what a man should look like and what clothes a woman should wear. If you study using professional literature, you can observe the difference between Russian textile culture and foreign ones. In particular, England is the country of business suits. At the end of the lesson you can discuss this using foreign language to consolidate the acquired knowledge and improve the child’s oral speech skills. We hope our tips will help you conduct an interesting and educational lesson.
