Lesson Plans | Amnesty International USA - 4 views

  •  
    I had a look at this site after seeing it recommended here on Diigo (thanks!) and it seems to have a lot of potential.  I agree with Richard that teachers would probably need to adapt some of the activities. There are some nice materials though and the 'Rights & Responsibilities' and 'The Right to an Education' are a nice lead-in to the topic of human right as they use the familiar topic of school to get students thinking.

ESL Holiday Lessons.com: International Mine Awareness Day - 0 views

  •  
    This is a ready-made lesson by Sean Banville about International Mine Day. It is quite accessible and there are different ways to use the material. I liked it because in addition to the reading / speaking / vocab activities it comes with an MP3 recording. Lots of potential!

    Very up to date ready-made reading, vocabulary and speaking activities. There is lots of material in each document so you probably won't have time / want to use it all. It's best to be selective! There are sometimes typos so it's important to check beforehand but it's an excellent source.
