The first thing that we can do is to
name each part of the body and then children repeat it in own body. How the
natural method says is better if we learn words with the objects they were
referred to. Other method what emphasized this idea is the Audiolingual method;
consist in repeating words and sentences.
But, how Piaget highlights, children
are sense-makers, they like to be active. For this reason the game Simon says is a good activity for work
of parts of the body. This game is easy to do and the kids love it. You can
check that they understand that you say and that they can distinguish the parts
of the body.
In the game one of participants directs
the action; this child should say the sentence Simon says that you touch followed by a body part, like your arm,
your nose or your foot. The rest of the class should do it, if they don’t touch
the correct part of body, they will be eliminated.
Other good resource is use songs. In
the Total Physical Response focused on the relationship between kinaesthetic
and memory. It is based on the fact that we memorise something better when it
is related to movement.
One famous song that helps us to
teach the parts of the body is Head and
Shoulders
