Why I set this blog is that our children is not familiar with English but forced to face, learn, even remember English since English as a Foreign Language in Taiwan. Most of children doesn't like to learn English. So, to let most of children like and love to learn English, I would like to post some creative and active games, stories, chants, and songs,which relate to one theme such as colors, to offer, exchange, and share our teaching ideas with our ELT teachers and workers. Let our children have postive and unstressful motivation to learn English.
