Not Hangman Again : Another Wonderful Collection of Games for English Classes

These are English language games which you can play in your classes. They require little or no preparation and minimal resources. Most of them are essentially very similar – word-guessing – but variations in the rules make them different games. They are not related to particular language points. They are chiefly old favourites which you will have played before, but may forget at critical moments. A few of them are, on reflection, not very good, but you might have more success with them than I did. My students‟ favourites were perhaps Backs to the Board, Five Things and Panic Word, especially Backs to the Board. They are intended for classes of 8-20 students, divided into 2 teams. With larger classes most games can easily be adapted for more teams.

Fun & Simple Creative Activities Using Skit Kit Cards

The Skit Kit is an activity for creating skits, creating stories or creating dialogues. Students are given an envelope with the Skit Kit cards. In groups students have to make up a story, make up a dialogue or make up a skit. It's pretty simple but fun and effective for teaching English in real situations. The activity : - Break the cards up with one or two of each of the cards in an envelope. If you print all the sets, you should be able to make 10-12 sets with 12-15 cards in one envelope. - Distribute one set to each group of students (2-5 per group.) - To start have the students take just a few cards out of the envelope and explain that they will need to make a story using all of the vocabulary. - Allow the students time to make a story and encourage them to add characters or themselves to the story. - Once they get the hang of it, have them take a few more cards out and make a new story or build upon the previous one. (Eventually building up to all of the card

MIND MAPS IN EFL CLASSROOMS – A POWERFUL TOOL

Do you use mind maps in your everyday activities in the classroom? I do. I have never stopped using them since I discovered how helpful they are both for my students and me. I keep adding new applications. Instead of writing long columns and lists or confusing explanations, my students and I create spider diagrams – we just need a single sheet of paper or a computer image instead of a lot of pages. What are mind maps? Mind maps are a visual way of taking notes. They are an innovative tool in education, a mighty graphic technique that explains relations between concepts and ideas linked to one central topic. They are a great way of gathering and organizing ideas. They work the way our brain does, so a mind map is a translation of what’s in our mind into a visual picture. They help us organize and understand information faster and better. How can teachers use mind maps? There are several ways teachers can use mind maps. They can use them for their own planning and

Compilation of Short Stories for Elementary and Intermediate Grades

By: Teacher: Mohamed BITI Ibn Tofail Middle School-DAKHLA The English Club _2017/2018 1-The Foolish Fish This Short Story The Foolish Fish is quite interesting to all the people. Enjoy reading this story. In a huge pond, there lived many fish. They were arrogant and never listened to anyone. In this pond, there also lived a kind-hearted crocodile. He advised the fish, “It does not pay to be arrogant and overconfident. It could be your downfall." But the fish never listened to him. “There is that crocodile, advising us again," they would say. One afternoon, the crocodile was resting beside a stone near the pond, when two fishermen stopped there to drink water. The fishermen noticed that the pond had many fish. “Look! This pond is full of fish. Let’s come here tomorrow with our fishing net," said one of them. “I am surprised we have not seen this place before!" exclaimed the other. The crocodile heard all this. When the fishermen left, he slowly s
