I am having so much fun already taking this course. My teaching will never be the same again. I thoroughly enjoyed the article on using Using Original Video and Sound Effects to Teach English. I have started experimentation on that. I believe that I can use these recordings to improve use of tenses (which is quite problematic for my kids).
Although we are rounding off the session (usually kids don't wont to do any class work after exams), my kids, after seeing the picture of the present tense board, are eager to try it out. By Monday we would surely get going. I am looking forward to getting more fun materials for next session form www.esl-galaxy.com.
A have all the cool kids and teacher activities on my delicious page. The funny thing is that for long time if had been seeing the delicious book mark on some websites, but did not bother about it. I now know what I have missed all this while. It was a delicious experience getting all my favorite sites in one place.
I hope to put up some pictures and videos by next week.
Cheers!
Hi Namse,
ReplyDeleteI agree that the course is getting more and more interesting every day. You are lucky that you have a chance to try out all the activities right away with your students whereas some of us will have to wait till September.
I can't wait to find out how your students react to the materials from www.esl-galaxy.com. There are some games that really went well with my classes (e.g. the football board game with adverbs of frequency).
All the best,

Thanks Maja. Its quite unfortunate the fun ends this week, as we proceed on long vacation.
DeleteHello, Namse,
ReplyDeleteI am amazed a lot having viewed and read your blog! You are happy to have your students at the moment in the classroom and experimenting all the technologies we are currently trying here. It is really a real-life course for you ! My school is closed right now for the vacations and I will try the resourses in future only ...
Kudos!
