    the activity is pretty challenging. It fits intermediate and higher level students. One can choose the topic, there is a range of it, then go on guessing a word. usually there are 7 guess chances which did motivated the stduent. He really enjoyed the activity, however I think students will enjoy even more if they have already some knowledge of the topic, then it gets really interesting.

    The activity is to develop vocabulary in certain limited topics. This could be applied for from intermediate level, since the words in charts do not usually met often. I would add that the student knew some names of flowers and anilmas, but the rest of the words were difficult and unknown to him.

    Karaoke: easy listening story for elementary level students; the story or the 'song' with the words of the same story is played after which students sing the 'song' repeating the reader, in the end they try to sing alone with words provided like karaoke. I piloted the activity with my 9 year-old neighbour. The kid was really engaged in that the kid was simply listening to the song and enjoying it. I suggest playing the same song over sevearal days so that learner would automatically sing with the song.

    Engaging for elementary level learners: matching games on different topics like clothes, family members, animals, kitchen items, body parts, etc. Again, I piloted the actiivty with my neighbour Hayk who is 9 years old. what the kid liked more was the fact he should grasp th epcture uqickly and ut it under the right word. Then he failed becaus eof influency with working with the computer, however we did it for some days and he practiced and improved hand movement. Time limit factor was also motivating since he was trying hard to win the game.
