Starting class-Warm up
Take into account...
12
A warm up activity is a short, fun game which a teacher or trainer can use with
students. The purpose of a warm up is to:
• Encourage the students
• Wake them up – first thing in the morning and after lunch people are often
a little sleepy
• Prepare them to learn by stimulating their minds and/or their bodies.
Warm ups should last about 5 minutes.
Warm ups are particularly useful:
• To help new students or trainees to get to know each other
• To mark the shift when students have finished learning about one topic
before starting on a new topic
Warm up activities are essential teaching techniques for good teacher and trainers.
