Board game - revision

Linh has been my best friend since we were in grade 8. She is an attractive girl with short hair and a cheerful face with dimples on both cheeks. We have share our common interest, playing badminton and gotten a long well with a group of top five through the previous years. At the beginning of this year, our group joined a relief activity in a southern province. Linh was our leader, and her decisions during the trip proved that our selection was right. She is a smart and decisive leader in tasks. At the same time, she is also a very helpful and cooperative person when she works with you. Whenever you have a problem, you can talk to her to seek her advice. I have been her “client” for years.

You can play it with your students at the end or at the beginning of the year. You can use the template for other self-made activities. A very interesting game. Hope you'll enjoy it.

Family Fortune

This is a very easy general knowledge game for kindergarten and elementary students. I use it as a end of year event activity. You can divide the class into two or more groups and have them answer the questions. Can start off by reviewing the alphabet.

A printable boardgame to promote conversation about the days of the week and the months of the year. The game contains pictures to talk about and questions to answer. It is a fun activity to encourage young children to talk with partners or in small groups. Ideal for use at the end of a lesson on days and months or at the start of the following day as a recap activity.

A great quiz which takes about 40 minutes. There are a variety of questions related to the UK such a famous people (Ed Sheeran), the name of the queen and the size of the population. It works great as an end of year activity to get the students engaged and hopefully more interested in our culture so they study harder! You can change the difficulty by removing the A/B/C/D options or editing the questions.

Are you looking for a fun ready-to-teach lesson plan for your ESL classroom? Check out Valentine's Day! This challenging reading lesson plan focuses on reading comprehension skills for English language learners. Students will learn new vocabulary while learning about the origins of Valentine's Day. This is a great lesson for high school students or adult ESL students, as it mixes new vocabulary and reading skills with a mini-history lesson!

Reading is an important skill for English language learners of all ages. We all know that it’s important for English language learners to spend time on reading activities, especially if they plan to work or study in English. I’ve noticed that some of my students don’t like reading, they would prefer to work on grammar or vocabulary. What I do in these cases is remind them how much reading improves their grammar and increases their vocabulary – this usually helps!

Valentine’s Day – This lesson plan focuses on the history of Valentine’s Day. My high school students love it, although I’ve used it successfully with many other students too. Remember, you can use this lesson on any day of the year.
