If you’re an elementary ESL teacher, you know that planning engaging, level-appropriate lessons for your multilingual learners across multiple grade levels can feel overwhelming—especially during the summer months. You’re juggling grammar, vocabulary, speaking, listening, reading, and writing for students at every language proficiency level.
Let’s face it: prepping four different lessons a day with no curriculum roadmap is exhausting.
But what if you had everything done for you? 🎉
With the July ESL Curriculum Bundle by Fun To Teach, you get a complete month of ESL instruction. This bundle is for K–5 English learners at every proficiency leve. That’s right – Newcomer, Beginner, Intermediate, and Early Advanced! We included picture cards, games, grammar practice, and vocabulary lessons ready to print and teach.
✅ 1. “I don’t have time to plan 4+ different ESL levels!”
Each level in this curriculum includes differentiated activities tailored to language proficiency. Just grab and go—no extra prep required.
✅ 2. “I need activities that are high interest AND build language!”
You’ll find fun, structured lessons like:
- Tongue Twisters for Pronunciation
- Sentence Starters for Speaking & Writing
- Semantic Gradients for Vocabulary
- Irregular Verb Practice Games
- Number Sense and Geometry Vocabulary
All activities promote speaking, listening, reading, and writing—without feeling repetitive or dry.
✅ 3. “I want more academic rigor without losing engagement.”
This bundle scaffolds instruction so your students are always progressing toward the next language level. Students enjoy songs, chants, interactive games, and collaborative activities that support oral language and academic vocabulary.
