Frequency Adverbs for Cline Activity
These large cut-out words can be printed and laminated, for use with a temperature cline to illustrate order of common adverbs of frequency. You can have students arrange them on a table top, or attach them to the whiteboard with tape or magnets. Great kinaesthetic activity to get SS up and moving around when class energy lags. Hope you enjoy :-)

Kanye West, Fur Coats & PETA - A Reading Lesson
This is a reading activity for intermediate and advanced students. It�s about a controversial subject and it contains one shocking photograph, so it�s not appropriate for younger students. Good for generating lively discussion, though. Let me know how it works for you.

At the Supermarket - Three Conversations
I use these three dialogs for teaching supermarket vocabulary. Students can practice, in pairs, general conversation for learning about products found in various grocery store departments; another conversation for asking for help; and a third at the checkout.

ED or ING? Illustrated Worksheet
I was having difficulty explaining the difference between the ED and ING adjective formats, so I found some images to illustrate situations and people�s reactions to them. Found it very useful made into a simple worksheet. If time permits, students can write sentences using each word, for additional practice. Best printed in colour.
