Hands-On Activities for Literacy, Math, and Science

Our Peace Corps knowledge database offers a fantastic manual published in May 2015 by the Office of Overseas Programming and Training Support (OPATS). Hands-On Activities: A Literacy, Math, and Science Resource Manual comprises over 50 activities for elementary students.

Peace Corps Ecuador TEFL volunteers may one day teach in elementary classrooms; meanwhile, PCVs from all programs often lead English clubs or offer English classes as secondary projects to students of all ages. These activities generally require few and inexpensive resources and provide detailed instuctions. Moreover, the manual has math and science activities, which can change up the routine in your English classrooms or clubs.
