English Teaching Charts For Primary Classes

Quick Answer: English Teaching Charts are printed wall charts for language lessons that illustrate vocabulary, grammar and sentence patterns with pictures and example words. Primary and middle-school teachers use them for areas such as opposites, pronouns, parts of speech and everyday classroom English.

Grammar and Vocabulary Made Visible

Young learners grasp grammar faster when it is attached to pictures and situations. An English chart might show a door that is open beside one that is shut, a group of children labelled “we” beside another labelled “they”, or actions such as run, jump and sit linked to verb forms. The picture carries the meaning, so the teacher can concentrate on the word and how it is used in a sentence.

Charts for older primary and middle-school classes move on to structure: nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs and prepositions, singular and plural, tenses and punctuation. Leaving the relevant chart up during writing tasks gives students a reference they can check without interrupting the lesson. For children learning English as a second language, classroom-phrase charts (“May I come in?”, “Please repeat that”) are especially practical.

Care & Handling

Hang English charts where the teacher can point to single words during drills; a pointer stick avoids finger marks on the print.
Change the displayed sheets as each grammar topic is taught so the wall stays relevant rather than crowded.
Store unused sheets flat in a folder sorted by topic.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do picture charts help teach opposites?

Two contrasting pictures side by side, such as open and shut or big and small, show the meaning immediately. The teacher then uses both words in sentences so children learn to use them, not just recognise them.

How can pronouns be taught with a chart?

Pictures of one person, a group including the speaker and a group of others make I, we, you, he, she and they concrete. Children point to the picture while saying a sentence such as “They are playing”.

What are the parts of speech shown on grammar charts?

The usual eight are noun, pronoun, verb, adjective, adverb, preposition, conjunction and interjection. Charts show an example sentence with each word type highlighted.

How should the charts be used during writing tasks?

Leave the relevant chart up while students write and encourage them to check it before asking. A punctuation chart, for example, helps them decide between a full stop and a question mark.

Are English charts useful for second-language learners?

Yes. Pictures reduce the need for translation, and charts of everyday classroom phrases give learners language they can use from the first day.

What games can be played with English teaching charts?

Point-and-say drills, “find the opposite” races, making sentences with a chosen word, and hiding a word for students to guess from its picture are simple ways to turn a chart into active practice.
