Welcome to
ESL Printables,
the website where English Language teachers exchange resources:
worksheets, lesson plans, activities, etc.
Our collection is growing every day with the help of many teachers. If
you want to download you have to send your own contributions.
I was just wondering how many of you teach cultural English as well as language.
It was a separate topic in my old school (taught in English) but the focus was to learn about traditions, hitory, customs etc.
I created the whole course when I taught this and thought that if there were people interested I would copy it from my exercise book and make worksheets for you (may take a bit of time :-) ).
Please let me know what you think.
I already uploaded the test for the end of the year which I can see has been downloaded a few times. If you have a look at this you would get an idea of things we covered.
I think that would be a great idea. In the UK, it is a necessity to teach culture as well as language to our students as many of them require this in order to satisfy visa requirements or to apply for British Citizenship.
It�s a great idea actually. I teach adult learners as well and I introduced cultural English as well though mostly used what I found on the net. It would be great if you had some material to share.
Like Douglas said culture is a part of teaching the language. In a first year I always start with reading/watching/ICT exercices on the UK, Ireland,.. food before starting with the language.
That�s why I made some worksheets concerning these topics. You�ll find them on this site. One is for elementary level, the other one for a intermediate level..
