Kids and exam answers - student bloopers used to learn
This project is also inspired by a post in the forum about students� science exam answers/bloopers and expanded using some �false� definitions many of you wrote (I hope nobody minds my using it as inspiration and linguistic material). I decided again to use laughing at mistakes as prevention for making one. Using funny texts with advanced levels (a...

LITTLE TEDDY�S BEDTIME RHYME - story in rhyme
This is a story in rhyme I wrote for my preschool advanced group, inspired by my son who never wants to go to bed. The whole lesson plan is included - you can read it for kids, role play it with them, use it for a show, do it in steps, etc. My sts loved it, they learned to finish my lines and to tell the key rhyme by themselves and we had lots of l...

How babies are born and other questions? - project
This lesson plan and project were inspired by a forum post by yetigumboots about �The Middle Wife�. It has inspired a whole series of projects (this being the 1st one) based on language misunderstandings and kids� special language use and understanding �grown-up� concepts. This project was created to sort of connect and intertwine several age group...

THE SPIRIT LAKE SEA MONSTER - reading project
This is a reading project based on a legend about a monster I found on the internet. I linked it to the topic of myths and legends, so apart from the text, there are notes for teachers with tasks for sts and a follow-up project.

tongue twisters and rhyme - WHY LEARN ENGLISH
I�ve used this for a performance with my level 3 group who wanted to perform, but hated siging - it�s a cool rhythmic rhyme about why learn English and duelling with tongue twisters. We finished off by duelling with the audience, because they didn�t want to sing (cool boys, you know), but the response was wonderful. It might come in handy, and it�s...

Kids on everyday life - how kids interprete everyday situations
This is part 2 inspired by yetigumboots� post about the Middle Wife - I�ve found some anecdotes on how kids interprete everyday life situations based on lack of linguistic or cultural knowledge. It�s funny, and I�ve truned it into speaking and writing activities for my English lessons with kids. I hope you enjoy them.

WHAT WOMEN WANT - FOLLOW-UP
Yes, what do women want??? Well, if you have telepathic powers, like Mel Gibson had in this charming, romantic, old-fashioned movie, then you know. I did the movie with my adult and highschool groups for Valentine�s Day and they absolutely loved it. Lots of funny situations, good language, no violence or obscenity, just men-women relationships. The...

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, ...
