Hi everyone! I've just found some useful information that I would like to share with you. It is about formative assessment cycle. Formative assessment is a process that provides feedback to close the gap between a learner's current performance and desired goals. Its objectives are activating students as the owners of their own learning and as instructional resources for another one, students can collaborate in many ways to improve learning. For these reasons it is very important to plan the assessment process and in this page you can find an example of how to do it. I hope you like it!

I have found this website very useful and interesting. It give us some examples of how to introduce idioms and saying to children in our lessons. Have you ever heard "the curiosity killed the cat?"

I personally think that learning English through idioms it is a funny way to get familiar with real English.
