Teaching beginners/elementary SMS/Texting language
 
Hi everyone
 
Further to my request last week (here), I�m now after some discussion activity cards, that have short SMS (text) messages on them eg: Can u meet me @ 4?, C u soon, etc
 
My class has a variety of levels within it and something like this, whereby they can talk together, work it out together, and where I can team each group up with a stronger learner, would be ideal.
 
If you know of any, please let me know.
 
Cheers
