pink-sober-lyrics and discussion
Fascinating woman, Pink, and a very interesting song! Kids are usually surprised when we read the lyrics through - they think it�s about something else and they never expect serious things from her(funny how image influences us!). Anyway, they have to fix spelling in the song, and afterwards there are some discussion questions about addiction in ge...

THE BLADE RUNNER WORKSHEETS
These are worksheets I used with my advanced classes who liked science fiction. Since Avatar and Star Trek have had a huge success with them and awakened interest in this topic, I�ve always found it interesting, in such situations, to awaken the interest in some older, more classical, works, such as this movie. The worksheets are b&w and editable, ...

safety tips - how safe is our world
I did this one with my FCE students. I got the text by e-mail from a friend and thought it provides good background for a lot of vocabulary work(on page 2) and a strong debate, since at times the safety tips in it seem sensible, and at times I thought �oh, come on, that�s paranoid�. It was an interesting debate, and I even got some spontaneous essa...

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...

FANTASY LAND - MYTHICAL BEASTS - PART 2
This is only part of a project I prepared for my after-holiday workshop with students about mythical beasts and magical creatures. After spending half the day reducing it in every possible way, I simply had to split it into parts. So - this is part 2 of the project about mythical beasts (There is also part 1- text tables for this project, and part ...

THE LONELY GIANT - READING FOLLOW-UP
Hi! I was doing stories from around the world with my sts, and I got the book of Scottish folk and fairy tales. I found the story of the Lonely Giant very charming and did it for Valentine�s Day with my sts - this is a follow-up. They found it interesting, and it wasn�t our typical Valentine�s day - we had a fantasy project with their drawings from...

WHY BULLY?
This is a worksheet for more than one lesson based on the article about an 8-year-old boy who asked Santa to stop the kids from bullying his sister. I added intro questions, vocabulary tasks (synonyms, finishing sentences, etc.) a writing task, a reading of Maya Angelou�s Still I Rise, and a task about her biography. I hope you find it useful. (I c...

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...
