CHILDREN AND TEENAGERS Children between these ages can attend pre-school or nursery on a daily basis for a morning or for a set number of hours to allow them to begin learning and also to become acclimatised to interacting with other children and spending time away from their parents.

The more the students like you, the better they learn and participate in activities.  Be a friend but not a philosopher. That is, don’t sound abstract when you speak to them. Give concrete examples.  Encourage free discussion. The objective is to make your students speak fluently. At a later stage, you can train them to be coherent, logical, etc.  Tolerate their grammatical errors and correct them later. Are your students adults? If they are treat them as adults.  Allow judicious use of certain words and expressions in the students’ native language when they struggle to find the equivalents in English.  Even if your students violate the rule of speaking English, do not get angry with them.

A one-time trip to a park or nature preserve will have very limited impact on young children. Provide ongoing, simple experiences with the grass, trees, and insects in environments close to home or school rather than spending time and energy arranging for day trips to unfamiliar places your child may seldom visit.

In addition to investigating the elements of the natural world already present in an outdoor setting, you can use many different strategies to transform a typical playground into an environmental yard. Start by adding bird feeders, wind socks, flower and vegetable gardens, tree houses, rock piles, and logs. Then, provide your child with tools for experimenting and investigating (for example, a magnifying glass, water hose and bucket, hoe, rake).
