    After reading how much material I could flip and have students do outside of class, I thought it would be good to start looking for more templates for meaning bearing and higher order thinking tasks that could be done in the classroom. Here is some really good stuff Jane Willis.

      There are always good themes but we need to figure out how to make them focused, comprehensible and doable. That is the key.
  • Lots of comprehensible input there! They learned about new genres. Some said they added music that we learned about in class to their playlists. Love that!

      Comprehensible and compelling input. Plus, added Spanish music to their audio files. The best language learners are the ones who listen to music and watch videos.

      I like how these three areas help define what the students will be able to do.
  • For example, for the last presentational goal where they tell what happened, they only used a few verbs (won, nominated, said) as memorized chunks. Intermediate students were able to give more details and it sounded like a true narration of events with transitions.

      I love this! each level can accomplish the goal by sheltering or minimizing the vocab.
  • And the remaining 3 C’s:

    I like this blog because it has an excellent resource center. It also has conferences, online course etc that I can sign up for and attend. It is the homepage for TESOL profesionals, people who are paid to help us be better teachers.
