ESL worksheet BODY SCAN
about this printable
This ESL worksheet BODY SCAN shows relevant vocabulary that helps children identify body parts in English. Body scans are great for increasing self-awareness and a sense of grounding. Practice some descriptive words with them such as tense, relaxed, warm, cold. Knowing how to describe what they feel in the body is just as important!
Tip: write words the children know in their home language(s) next to the English words. Involve the parents to help with this if necessary. Are there any connections they can make between the languages?

General info
Looking for self-awareness activities for kids? In this shop, you will find self-awareness PDF and ESL worksheets for kids that you can print and use at home or in the classroom. These activities include stress reduction techniques, body awareness activities, self-awareness games for students, and much more! Emotional regulation strategies are incredibly helpful tools to navigate life. For children and adults.
These worksheets and printables are created with EAL and ESL learners in mind. Multilingual learners have different needs, and my goal is to create resources that are more accessible for them. I do this by making it visual and by using easier language compared to resources geared to natives. Many of these will have options or suggestions for using home languages to aid learning. In addition, the yellow text background and the interline between sentences being 2, helps children with dyslexia.
First, I suggest doing these exercises with the child(ren) in English and their home language(s). Mirror what to do. Then, when they want to do it autonomously, the visuals will make it much easier to recognize the activity and know what to do.
If you have any requests, or ideas to make it even easier and fun for you, please reach out to me and I’ll see what I can do!
