INTRODUCTION Nowadays,
English is become spread out in the society even in the school. Everybody
have to be able in English, even in the school or in the work place. Beside
they are also need to their future since English become an international
language anywhere. That’s all the reason why we have to be prepared from now
and in the young age, like: children. Children have to learn English in the
school, because they still fresh to learn many things. Actually, teaching
English for children is not easy. We have to look for the right materials and
lessons for them. Even though children are a good learner and like to learn,
especially about here-and-now things, but they have to give the right
materials and lessons to attract and interest them to learn English. They
also easy to get bored when learn something, so the right materials and
lessons will decide the result of the teaching-learning process. They like to
learn about what they see, hear and feel (around them) and they like learn
while playing. So through this lesson, we try to look for the right materials
for teaching English for children. We try to give the lessons that
appropriate with children that are fun, colourful and attractive lessons. We
hope that the children’s skills in English will improve through these
lessons. In this case, we try to offer an interesting way to teach them that
is through website. We also choose the right website to use by them that is
website that consists of many fun, interesting, attractive, innovative, and
creative things for children. Actually, this is a new way in
teaching-learning process even for children. We also need to prepare computer
application to make the teaching-learning process run successfully. We also
need to choose the right website to support it. The website should have
potential of language learning, fit with the learner’s age, authentic, have
the meaning focus, practical, give positive impact, have good credibility,
and also up-to-date. We should think about those things because it is
important to support the teaching-learning process. 2.
COURSE INFORMATION We try to design a material for a
class period of 45 minutes. First of all, we choose children from first grade
of Elementary School as our subject and we try to teach ‘vocabulary’ to them.
The topic is “Our Face”. First, teacher will explain some explanation about
what they are going to do in class. Then, teacher will make sure that the
students understand about the explanation. After that, the students are asked
to do the exercise that is matching the vocabularies of body (eyes, ears,
etc.) with the picture and we will give them some other exercises to check
their ability in understanding the materials. We choose the materials because
we think that it’s easy for the first grade elementary student. It’s also
consisting of colourful and fun things in the materials. We think that it
will interest the children. 3.
TECHNOLOGY REQUIREMENTS We
use ‘website’ in the teaching-learning process. We will prepare some
computers according to the students in the class. Each student will use one
computer, so that they can try to use it. Actually, we will prepare it before
the class, so that when the students come to the computer lab, they can use
the computer and the online website for the activity. It’s not taking a long
time and it’s also making the teacher begin the teaching-learning process
easier. 4.
WEBSITE EVALUATION http://www.learnenglish.org.uk/kids/flash/activities/lbclown/clown.html 1. Language learning
potential We think that the website appropriate
for the children. It’s consisting of fun activities, colourful background and
also many things that the teacher can use for the teaching-learning process
for children in class. It’s also consisting any other skills practice for
children, like: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. 2. Learner fit The website is also appropriate
for the learner’s age as our subject that is first-grade elementary student.
As we mention before that the website consisting of many fun activities,
colourful background and many creative things for teacher’s guide in
teaching-learning process. 3. Authenticity The all part of the website is
almost use audio-visual aids, like: pictures, video, sounds, colours, etc. 4. Meaning focus The focus of the website is for children
as the target audience. It’s the reason why the website is made in those
things (full of colours, pictures, and also sounds). 5. Practicality The website is easy to open. We
just need to have an internet connection, so we can open the website. We just
write the name of the website and then browse it until it will open. Then,
choose the part that you want to open and open it. There are many pages that
consist of many fun games, activities, and lessons for children. The students
also just need to click using the mouse to do the activities in the website.
If they want to know the result, they just need to see in the result score.
And if they want to repeat the activities, they just reset and repeat the
same activities like they have done before. The continuously of the lessons
will make the students understand and remember the lessons easier. 6. Positive impact The topic of the website, they use
the materials according to the children ability. The website chooses the
materials based on the target audience. Actually, there are many topic, games
and activities for children. We can choose it according our needs. 7. Up-to-date The website is actually very
up-to-date, because the creator always updates the activities and the website
continuously. 8. Credibility The copyright issues, we think
that the creator uses the lessons and the materials according to the
curriculum in the society. 5.
