Ke$ha - Tik Tok
I used Ke$ha�s song "Tik Tok" to review daily routine verbs (i.e. wake up, brush my teeth, try on clothes, etc.). Students listened to the song and filled in the missing verbs.

"Heartless" by Kanye West
I used this listening activity in a mixed-level English class. "Heartless" is a good song to teach ESL because the words are slow and it contains a lot of slang. I used this as an alternative to dictation, which my students hate. Also included are the song�s lyrics.

Speaking Evaluation Rubric
This is a speaking evaluation rubric based on which of my students� skills I wanted to assess. The students did an oral presentation in teams. Most important was the students� speech and sharing of responsibility. I wrote comments in the boxes, which was a bit time consuming. Hope this is helpful to you!

Friends Introduction
I made this printable to introduce the cast of "Friends" to my high school students. Their level is low-intermediate, so this activity was very challenging. I recommend this introduction for upper-intermediate/advanced students. Students should fill in information while watching an episode of "Friends."
