The Supporting Act
This is a short clip by the BBC, which they will play between programmes till Christmas, when they will add to it... It is 2:01 minutes long and quite touching. No dialogue, so great for teaching English. Good practice for both present tenses. I would give each student 3 or 4 questions to answer, or else, several viewings! Key included.

The Crazy Word Challenge!
These thirty crazy, bonkers, offbeat etc! words have disappeared from the English language. The challenge is to match them up with their meanings. Many of them have linguistic clues and it might be fun putting the students in groups and seeing how many they can get. Full key included, obviously, as you will need it!

Picnic in the Park
Practice with the past simple tense. I start off with present continuous and Splat! Pupils come to the front and I say �She is sitting beside the ball� etc and the first to touch it wins....Then past simple. Well, I prepared this as a worksheet, but the picture (I have permission to use it) was too ...

Christmas Activities
There are some great cliparts on here! I have set the activities/questions to fly in. You might want to just show the images first and get the pupils to describe them. Or play �Splat!� Two pupils come to the board. Teacher describes an image. The pupil to touch it first is the winner.

Christmas �Guess who I am?� or �Guess what I am?�
The clues first, then the image flies in. This is not an original idea. Also, the last slide isn�t really about Christmas, but I couldn�t resist! ;-)

Harry Potter vs Gandalf
This powerpoint compares Harry with Gandalf. There are a number of activities: two clozes - missing words and missing vowels, a true or false and pictures that can be used for memory games/guessing games or splat. (I�ve had to reduce picture size to get in the limit, but you can easily enlarge them....

Holiday activities - what did you do over summer? The picture on the second slide is brilliant. I have used it before with present continuous tense. (I have permission to use it from Babylon puzzles.)
