Business English - 0 views

  •  
    This site is suitable for those who are interested in teaching or learning "Business English". It provides rich vocabulary, slangs and jargons that you may face in a commercial meeting. Some do-s and don't-s of business are included here. Presentation tips and games are other attractive options. Since I spent 3 months on a useless "Business English" class in a quite well- known university in Iran I can tell that visiting this site and similar sits are much more useful.

Food Game - 8 views

  •  
    A gAme to prActice food vocAbulAry (fruit, vegetAbles, drinks, meAt, desserts...). Students should find foods indicAted by chief's list on the side by click on them in A kitchen. I piloted this gAme with A 12 yeArs-old neighbor of mine, who studies English At elementAry level. He wAs pretty much engAged in the gAme. Though the food list At side is restricted, foods in the kitchen Are not. This mAkes students to look Around to find the food indicAted rAther thAn simply choose from A limited set of choices. As there Are other food items As well, it Also provides An opportunity to teAch new food vocAb. When the list is done for the 1st time, plAying the gAme AgAin Allows to prActice new items And A new list is provided. It's definitely more interActive thAn usuAl pAper-bAsed Activities. In cAse of using it in A clAss, the teAcher cAn Also Add some speAking tAsks for group work.

    Karine: ya, it is good interactive game for young learners of advance beginner/elementary level. adelina: Glad to hear that. actually the boy with whom I tried this also was pretty engaged in the game and few days ago when I met him and asked him to recall the words he learned back then, he almost named all of them. It provides a good visual for learning I suppose.

Essay Map - 2 views

  •  
    Using this site, you can Improve your students compositions dramatically, teaching them how to plan their ideas first. This programme will help them create and print a map with the ideas they need. I tried this with a couple of my private students who are studying for iBT TOFEL examination. They stated that using this map they could write a sentence or a paragraph for every idea and this way they had a coherent essay, well organized and much better than the usual messy stuff they would produce formerly.

    Adeh this is A very nice wAy to involve students in essAy writing. I tried it myself And I found it very useful. I Am going to use this with my own students. It is A reAl sAmple for AcAdemic essAy writing And Also we cAn print our writing. ThAnk you for this formAt.

    Hi Nune. Thx for the comment. Honestly, Likewise I liked it very much. I believe even our classmates can use this to produce decent writings. :)

Story maker - 5 views

  •  
    This is a good source for using a simple story to motivate pre-school and first beginning students to learn English. It's easy to choose pictures and creates a story even for a 5 year old kid. My 5 years old daughter got encouraged when recognized that she made it by herself. If it's being used often children would be able to recognize words as a whole; without having the ability of reading the individual letters.

    Oh Armine jAn it wAs A very interesting gAme. I plAyed it twice. It reAlly helps the students to promote their reAding skills, As well As their creAtivity. And the most intersting pArt wAs the lAst pArt when I wAs reAding the story About me. I liked it very much...:)

    This is a nice LISTENING activity with audio video materials. U can have ur child watch this. after watching perhaps ur child decides to become an interviewer or a weatherforcast man as my sister did. While watching the previous activities she (my sister) decided to become a cook and then she changed her mind and decided to become a weatherforcast woman. The activity is created by the British Coucil. This is a good opportunity to teach your child the names of the countries, continents and flags and quite a lot of adjectives, of course, everything in the target language. Ok, I guess I stop here, as I feel myself like an advertiser. Watch and test it and make ur own judgments. HaVE FUN KIDS.

    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.

    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!

Making worksheets choosing a theme and a new random list - 0 views

    This is a very good source for making the workisheets of your need. The only thing that you should do is to choose a theme and a new random list. I used this source with my Prep 2a kids for teaching them numbers and animals, and the worksheets were very useful as the kids liked them very much.

Story- Beginner's Luck - 1 views

  •  
    This is a wonderful activity for developing students' listening, reading (skimming and scanning), speaking skills, as well as increasing vocabulary. it contains variety of activities which are based on the listening. Moreover, all the activities can be done both online and on paper (all materials are printable including the transcript of the audio). It contains a pre-watching vocabulary activity the story a comprehension activity a language activity about idioms I used this material with my two intermediate students. Though the level was lower I have decided to try. In order to help them I wrote down the words/expression that they might be unknown and discussed them before listening. Then they listened to the audio but still had difficulties to understand completely what the audio was mainly about. In order to solve the misunderstanding I have decided to give the transcripts to read while listening (It helped much to understand). I used the third activity to check whether they could scan and skim the information (they could as I guess reading helped them very much). The last activity was a multiple choice activity where the students should look at the given idioms and choose the best meaning. Suggestion- If your students are not high intermediate/advanced the process will be slowed down. Just use transcript and after listening discuss the text. It will help.

This is a great party - 4 views

  •  
    This is a good listening activity, where learners will listen to a story and get used to coping with noise when listening. They can listen to the story with and without subtitles. Then they can answer comprehension questions. alternatively, it is a good story - a part of Halloween party, and students can describe the clothes and characters they see.

Skiing penguin - 3 views

  •  
    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.
