Amazing spelling game with letters for any age

(0)
This game is excellent for any age to improve listening and spelling. There are a sheet of letters which need to be copied and laminated each student will receive about 55 letters and work in a group or with another person. The teacher calls out the word and the students have to spell the word using the letters on their desk then call out if they are first t finish. It is so competitive and mostly used in English/EAL and ESL but can be used even as a warmer to review key words in any subject. There are some recommended words form easy to hard but of course the list is endless. All students enjoy this because it is hands on and interactive.

Students act as teachers and identify the mistakes throughout the health blog, this reinforces their ability to recognize errors and correct in pairs. At the end they can make a video in groups based on the text. A great interactive activity!

Reward Chart + Oscars to laminate for class motivation and rewards! Awesome tool for English/Drama

(0)
For any English activity or drama activity, for example after debates, presentations, group work, and poster activities I award my learners with an Oscar. I use three categories each month and one group Oscar prize, one individual prize and another individual prize(for progress). So every student has a chance to win an award each month. The students get so excited at the Oscar concept, as it is something they know and can relate to. Instructions Photocopy the Oscars and laminate them, you can use the chart across the whole year if you just edit the dates on the document, the one here starts from Sept to Dec, simply enlarge the chart or decrease the Oscars so they fit in the chart. At the end of the month the learners of the categories will get a prize. A movie, sweets or whatever your school policy is usually motivates the students. Hang it on your classroom wall, it will get the students excited! Something visual that is always there is a great motivating tool.

Whole interactive lesson for English about drones, they are currently a hot topic in the media and becoming a pain to some individuals. There is a lot of interactive discussion, a word search, key vocabulary, writing and a debate. Good for IELTS, EAL learners, ESL, EFL and Citizenship students and also for IGCSE ESL core and extneded learners. Also good for Key stage 2/3 differentation for more able learners.
