The Gesture Database is a product that supports the implementation of an AIM Kit and will not provide what is needed to implement the methodology.

Have you ever wanted to find a gesture from the PDL (Pared Down Language) but can't remember in which play it appears?  With AIM's New Online Gesture Database, you can look up any gesture by keying in the word or phrase, and Wendy will appear on your computer screen to show you the gesture.

With the New Online Gesture Database, you can locate gestures quickly and easily, searching by word, kit, unit, or activity number. The Database also includes on-screen user manual.  Subscriptions to the Online Gesture Database are for 1 year upon activation.

It saves me in a stressful time when I have to quickly check and revise the gestures.

I love the gesture database. It helps when I forget common gestures but also when I am trying new things.

The gesture database is so useful! Even after many years of teaching AIM, I sometimes like to refer to it to make sure I am using the right action, and sometimes learn new ones!

This is such a helpful resource, especially for teachers who haven't had AIM training or who are using a combination of AIM with other materials. I've found it so useful!

I am still getting through it all but, the content is great. It is a great reference. For this I would give it a higher rating. Things that could be improved: The platform feels a bit clunky. I don't understand why the gesture database isn't included with the play subscription? I am grateful to have access but I just wish the experience was all a little smoother. Otherwise great resource. When I emailed for help they got back to me right away.

This is just what I was looking for! I can’t always remember every gesture especially when I don’t teach a kit for a while so it’s nice to be able to look up the ones I need.

A must when looking up new words for new kits. I use it daily to go over my favourite gestures. The more you practice them the easier it is!

We solve many of the challenges language teachers face.

Learn about some of the challenges Primary School Teachers face when teaching languages.

The Gesture Approach

The AIM is a methodology that supports students by providing strategies and techniques that ensure student language acquisition and a high level of engagement. The Gesture Approach allows students to visualize, hear, say and 'feel' the language simultaneously, and this results in rapid proficiency development.

A Literacy- and Arts-Based Approach

Through the use of story and drama, songs, raps, and dances, students are moving to the language as they create meaning. Scaffolding and cooperative learning strategies help all students - the shy, weak, and strong - to find great support and success.

High-Frequency Vocabulary

One of the most essential aspects of AIM that ensures student success is the high-frequency vocabulary (Pared-Down Language) that threads throughout every aspect of this methodology. AIM is designed such that each word is repeated extensively, allowing students to develop a strong foundation for language proficiency.
