Dear all, here is a link where I found a collection of strange signs. You may enjoy sharing it with your students or colleagues. Actually it is not an activity but it is an excellent raw material for creating a good activity. For example you may ask your students to decide what is wrong in these signs and getting students to correct them. Since the list is very funny and authentic I think it is very motivating for discussing it too so this may become a very good topic for the classroom discussion. Anyway I think you may create an excellent activity for the development of your students' speaking skills.

These flashcards can be used for teaching children animals

These are flashcards of animals. They are colorful and funny. I'm completely sure kids will like them

When I was doing my practicum in EEC I really had problems in finding good flashcards. The problems was that in order to find a picture of a particular animal, I had to type the animal's name (eg.lion, cat) and then choose on of them, then change the size (make it bigger or smaller) and this process took me a long time. When I found this site I was very happy because they are very funny and colorful and there are approximately 10-15 animal picture that I can print immediately without searching them long or changing the size.

A fun game to develop parts of speech. It asks you to write many words then comes up with a funny story. When you have trouble remembering it even has an information page to help the player. Best for players who have sufficient grammar knowledge (11 and up)

It's a funny and interesting game. The player have to choose the right answer of the question to score a goal. I piloted this game with one of my students and he liked it very much. It's easy for people who love football and its rules.

It's a very funny game that develops memory skills, therefore, challenging to some extent...

It's similar to a car-racing game for kids with a funny interface, where a penguin is skiing. It differs from standard racing games in that it doesn't let the penguin go out of the road. Though it cannot be used for developing language skills, it's a fun activity for kids.

Kids can listen to and read a story in funny settings (and also through listening to songs). The story is about how Boowa helps his new friend Kwala find her family.This trick can be used for teaching kids travelling by developing their reading and listening skills. The story consists of 13 chapters, so it's better to teach them during a couple of classes.

This game is perfect to improve the vocabulary related to the topic "clothes". Learners should dress the Teddy as it is given bellow. My niece liked this game very much.

This is an engaging writing activity in which students create an amusing group story! It could work with elementary and pre-intermediate level students.

a little spooky but fun. I like the audio that comes witih it :-)

An intermediate game. One should find the objects in different horror rooms. The hint is the first letter. For ex. "I spy with my little eye something beginning with C... in the conservatory". The game is funny, interactive, and it enriches one's vocabulary. By aunt is an English teacher. She liked it and asked me the link for her students.

To be honest at first i was a little bit afraid from the sound :D :D :d later i got used to it :D :D :D i liked the game :d i played it :D though i did not understand what would happen in the end :D

Cute and funny; a lot of repetition, perhaps a little too much at times

nice!! I liked it!! the only problem i see is that though the purpose of the game is for low levels (teaching numbers) the speech is a little bit more difficult! However i think that it is a fine activity for native children to learn numbers :) :)THANKS A LOT!

Today I tried this activity on my 5th grade students and my little sister. This acitivity is not just a song. It is a game where your child can enhance his/her speaking and listening abiltiies and pronouciation while listening to it. Actually it is about people living in the world and it is an animated video. It was funny and I even promised them to write down the words (which is not difficult, as the animated man is singing and below the page u can see the sentences of the song) and give them at the next lesson so that they can learn it and sing the song together.

Here you can leanr and practice prepositions with th ehelp of the game

It is a very funny game on Preposition. I am very fond of having my learners play it. they do it with a great pleasure.

This game is for practicing prepositions. I have piloted it with three 17-18-year-old students and it has worked very well. It is both fun and uneful as eventually it's a grammar prcatice game.

A very nice listening activity. Good opportunity to teach your students in preschool vocabulary concerning picnic, toys, fruit and etc. By the way this gane was awarded as a good game for kids. Can enhance the students pronounciaion, listeting and even speaking skills. However, after watching this video my sister wanted immidiantly to go for a picnic and meet the nice and funny animated ant there. HAVE FUN!!!!!!!

Again an activity created by the British Council. This is a funny audiovisual activity. Here a dog tells about his life. My sister enjoyed it. This is an activity that will enhance ur child's imagination, reading skills and increase his/her stock of vocabulary.

Here you can find reading comprehension worksheets for 2nd Grade students in pdf formats. They are funny and easy to work with. If your student doesn't like to read long texts, as mine, then they are exactly what you need. At the end of every text, there are questions to check your student's reading comprehension. It worked pretty well with my student.

Alice is a bot (robot) with A.I. (artificial intelligence). You can chat with her, and she'll speak back to you. She never gets bored or tired of talking with you. She can answer math questions, tell you where most countries are and what their capitals are,and she even knows a few pretty funny jokes. She at times makes mistakes, but overall performs very well. She can understand you a lot better if you type carefully. Your students can chat with Alice to practice English, but they have to try to type and spell carefully. They need to take their time, and think about good grammar, good vocabulary and making good sentences. They can use their conversation as a practice time to apply what they have learned in English. You can chat with Alice anytime. The first 2500 exchanges each month have more animation and even have speech. I tried chating with her for half an hour and I should confess that I fell in love with her! She can nicely initiate discussions or answer your questions. A great tool to both practice language and also learn new things from her.
