children�s play - THE TORTOISES� PICNIC
Here�s another play I have to share with you - based on another traditional English story. It�s a funny play about a family of tortoises who decide to go on a picnic. I tried it with preschoolers (6-7 yrs old, 2nd & 3rd year of learning), and with school kids (7-9 yrs old), and both times it turned out great. It combines topics like family, food, n...

A TRIBUTE TO TINA TURNER
I started it off by writing 1939-1971-2009 on the board and asking students to elicit ideas about what these years might refer to and which historical events happened in this span of time.

PINK & BREAK-UPS - wss with lyrics and additional texts
This is part 5 of my collection of song lyrics and related texts on various social topics. The ws contains sts� wss, links and teacher�s key. Since the song is about the impossibility of accepting a break-up, I chose some additional texts about that topic. There are listening, reading, writing and speaking tasks. I hope you find it useful.

LOVE ACTUALLY - British humour & great movie story
One of the most charming movies ever, in my book, deserved an extensive ws(Liam Neeson, Rowan Atkinson, Emma Thompson, Hugh Grant, Alan Rickman...). I watched it with adults and highschoolers (watch it before you do it with sts), and it was fantastic - we did it at Christmas time (or you can do it for Valentine�s day. The ws requires a lot of vocab...

toys - matching ws for kids
This is a very simple ws for smaller kids to match toys and their words. The words are all caps, because preschoolers and 1st graders are more comfortable with these. I use it as a ws, but also as a class poster. I sometimes give them colourful wss as a special reward, but it�s editable so you can print it in b&w if you want to.
