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...

NATASHA BEDINGFIELD - lyrics detectives
This is a ws based on listening to Natasha Bedingfield�s 2 songs. It�s a fill-in and a synonyms� fill-in, and her songs are not bad listening practice, because she sings very clearly and kids (esp teenagers) like the songs. I even used Soulmate as a dictation later on and they liked doing it like that (although, for a singing dictation, I would alw...

Harry Potter & the Philosopher�s Stone - kids� play
This is a play written for our school�s 10th anniversary - we included our dance groups, preschool/school groups(the little ones had their rhymes) and teenagers - they all had their part in it and it lasted for about 40 mins all together. They performed it at the theatre and it was quite memorable. The boy who played Voldemort is now finishing univ...

BEN 10 - the kids� superhero
I don�t know about you, but my kids have gone crazy over this Ben 10 guy. So I figured - why not try to use it to my classes� advantage? This is a ws you can do in class, even without watching the cartoon in class, and it has lyrics to the theme song with tense fill-ins, a T/F exercise and one about the super alien creatures which actually needs de...

HUGLESS DOUGLAS - adapted from D. Melling�s beautiful story
This is a ws I prepared for my students who are 9-11, and it�s based on D. Melling�s wonderful picture book Hugless Douglas. The story is about a bear who wakes up after hibernation and all he wants is a hug. The ws is fully editable (although the preview is completely off and I have no idea why:(((). The story is absolutely charming, and you can l...

GONNA BE A BEAR - a true, funny poem and a ws
This is a ws based on the poem GONNA BE A BEAR (posted on the forum 3 days ago)from karmaskorner.com. It�s very funny, you can do it any day, on mother�s day, on Christmas, or when you just need a good laugh, with kids or adults. The ws practises vocab (the poem is short, but has some good phrases in it) and even a bit of conditionals. I can just b...

SANTA VS. GRINCH - fun grammar worksheet

The ws contains 3 tasks - comparing Santa and Grinch, filling in (with Past S.) a story about Santa�s bad day and guessing jobs the Grinch tried when he decided to be honest. I hope you find it useful! Happy...

Idle Jack - children�s play based on a traditional English story
This is a children�s play I did 12 years ago with my younger teenage students, and lent it to a colleague of mine this year - both times the play went great - all the kids got their roles, the audience was interested, because it�s based on a traditional story, so nobody knew how it would end, and we finished with a Monty Python song played on the g...
