How to use body language in the classroom Im very glad to stand here and share my topic with you. Id like to talk something about how to use body language in the classroom. Whats body language ? Its the movements of our body. We use them to show what we are talking about and how we are feeling. Body language is expressing yourself by your body action. Though it is not direct than language , but it makes the information more attractive. Do you know what the use of body language is and how to use it? First, Instead of first language, it leads students go into the second language completely.

For example, when I teach “the Present Continuous Tense”, I do some actions constantly and ask” What am I doing” Students guess “you are ”This will not only help students remember lots of wors.

An encourage expression in my eyes can make those clever, timid, afraid children become relaxed, bold .
