Human Rights Mind Map

This is just a wikipedia page for the term "spanking", however it provides some interesting statistics about spanking from all over the world. I'll probably have a discussion with my class and ask them to predict what kind of topics the article will cover. I'll probably give them a range of questions like, who do you think gets spanked more, boys or girls? Then I'll have them skim the article to find the answers as homework.

Hi Delpha. If you are doing lessons on spanking, thought you might like this from Breaking News English-- good supplementary material! http://www.breakingnewsenglish.com/0909/090928-iq.html

Human Rights Group2

Many activities, handouts and mp3 audios.Take a look !!!

A hgeat lesson plan for Human Rights. Very appropriate for the topic Michael requested. 

Students will define the concept of human rights and human rights violations. Students will examine and evaluate the state of human rights in China and the United States.

This is an appropiate issue related to the women's rights. One of the most terrible problems women face is Domestic Violence and it must end.

Hello Maria, I could see all the activities that can be done out of a short article. Because being an authentic material the students are led to think and talk realistically and develop all those linguistics activities. Ruth

Thanks Michael for this great website. I think it's great. You can find any topic.

Your one-stop source for ESL resources

I like this page because it has a lot of useful examples in grammar, vocabulary and others

For those who teach children

Online Language Dictionary

This is a collection of listening practice materials designed for ESL learners. It is part of the ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE Website (http://www.rong-chang.com/), the best ESL Web directory.

I really like to use this activity in my classroom because it helps students to listen to native people talking about any topic related with the material seeing in class, and it can help to reinforce some vocabulary, not just by listening but also practicing it.

Great, I going to put it into practice!

This page provides a lot of activities you can use in the classroom to teach the importance of having a job in this world and the value every occupation has. There you can find occupations described by pictures and small sentences to help students understand in a simple way. Also students mainly children have the opportunity to create different towns and fire trucks buy using boxes and their creativity.
