Two parallel texts, pitched at different levels, looking forward to the Paralympic Games 2012. The first text is fairly complex and is followed by questions in English, a 'find the phrase' exercise with a focus on the Future Tense, revision / presentation of the Future, a manipulation exercise, again with a focus on the Future Tense, and finally a writing task featuring past tenses.
The second text, pitched at Foundation level, is virtually verb-free, and is followed by questions in English and no grammar whatsoever.
Interactive drag and drop activity in which students must link players to World Cup teams. All 32 qualifying countries are featured but the game will randomly select a set of ten teams each time it is opened and will randomise the order in which they are displayed. Almost never the same game twice. WIll work on PC or IW.

24 questions on the topics of tourism and the environment. The first slide acts as a homepage. Students choose a letter and then are hyperlinked to a question. Creates an element of unpredictability to the questioning and might be useful for students preparing for their speaking exam.

This is similar to meion Haustier which I uploaded previously, but has been edited to suit my Year 7 class. Five authentic blogs about pets, written by relatively young native-speakers.( I've changed the names of the writers and the pets.) The texts are followed by comprehension and manipulation exercises and a toolkit to help the students form a range of sentences.
