This site shows something that we are losing: Values. We need to be aware that one of our duties is to reinforce family unit. We have to work not only with children but with their parents, too. You can use the information to create a comfortable environment between children and their parent. I take every opportunity to share my opinion with parents. Parents who don´t speak English I always afraid about it. With this site you can tell them that the responsibility of teaching English is yours ( their English teacher), but the responsibility to motivate their children is theirs (parents), This site can help them to prioritize their family activities, to show interest in their children activities.

"In many conflicts, commanders see children as cheap, compliant, and effective fighters." I have quoted this statement since I find it extremely shocking. It is unbearable that children still undergo this type of unjustice not to mention others that are part of our reality in the 21st century. Where are the infancy defender organizations? What have they done to stop this type of human holocaust?

The EDSITEment is a great resource for instructors teaching culture, history, social studies etc.. For my human rights topic the website gives several ideas about freedom of speech including various activities (lesson plans) classes of all ages can do during Freedom of Speech Week, October 17-23. Some of the content/language may be too high for EFL/ESL setting. Their collection of lesson plans are worth looking at though for ideas.

Family leisure activities and how it contributes to reinforce family ties are the main topics of this document. It gives you a clearer picture of your student´s environment. It describes how divorce, single parenthood, poverty can affect families. It is useful to know yor student background because it is not a matter to teach them English it is, also, how the students can overcome difficulties. You can use the reading to avoid sensitive points in your classes, and to know which activities children prefer to do with their parents. I always tell my students, today you are going to tell your parents what did you learn in English, many, not all, receive possitive words about it and it shows how you can use English to create an activity children can share with their parents.

Hi there!
It has taken too long to manage this tool. But never mind. I am very optimistic and work harder each time.
This web site must be a good device for teachers who work with kids. Though you must ensure that the computers in your classroom or lab meet the requirements since the software of this web site is very trendy, I think. Enjoy it!!!
