Cuisenair Rods
These are wooden or plastic blocks which were invented by George Cuisenair to teach kids Maths in an interesting way. Then they were used to teach language. They can be used in many different ways :
1- for representing strong & weak syllables.
2 - indictation for e.g. the teacher describes a house & sts, form the house with the rods & compare it with the teacher's version after then they do the same in pairs
3-for telling time & to represent time lines.
4-to introduce & practice comparatives & superlatives.
5- to teach phrasal verbs ( using rods of different colors for different parts of the verb so sts become familiar with them).
.
Usingthe Cuisenair Rods is fun and they can be used by both adult & young learners as they create enthusiasm.
They also provide an opportunity for group work without book , pens & paper.They also motivate & challenge learners with different learning styles.
