 Hello!! How are you? Today, I want to share with all of you a fantastic resource to improve all what you want: speaking, listening and reading. Kahoot!  is a website where you can design activities that your students can do in group in a competition or individual way.  With this website you can learn about curricular contents, new vocabulary, listening songs and fill the gaps correctly, reading and comprehension, etc because you as the teacher will be who design the activities. You'll have to create the activity and then you'll share the pin with your students, like next picture: It's a fantastic ICT's tool that we can use on our class and while our students are learning they are having fun too. I imagine you would know this website, but I thing we can share some ideas to work with.

 Hello followers! How are you doing? Today I share to you a lovely website: https://learnenglishkids.britishcouncil.org/ It's a fantastic website where you'll can find everything you are looking for: listening activities, writting ones, speaking and reading activities. For this, I think is the most complete website I've found. For this post, I want to use speaking activities, like "The dog", where students will have to see the video and repeit the words, and then, they'll have to burst the balloon with corrects ones. Also, they make us a question: "Watch Sam and Pam's first adventure story with Ben, Tess and Sid the dog. Can you hear the sounds 's', 'a', 't', 'p', 'i', 'n', 'm' and 'd'?". You'll can find this activity in this link:  The dog | LearnEnglish Kids (britishcouncil.org) Later, I'll design an speaking activity, because I'll ask my students to do a drawing about ...

Hello everyone!! Ho are you? Today, I share with you another resources of a website I've shared before, but I really like it and I thinkg it's a fantastic activity to use in our classroom. You'll can find it in this link:  The solar system | LearnEnglish Kids (britishcouncil.org) In this activity, students will have to listen some words and put them in the correct description. Later, they'll have to read the solar sistem's information and then, they'll have to do the game and select the correct answer. Like you can see, it's really visual and funny, and it allows that our students works in group and individualy. What do you think? Do you like it?

 Hi everybody!! Today I want to share with you a fantastic website I've found:  Online Puzzlemaker | Create Your Own Puzzle | Discovery Education Puzzlemaker It's an incredible resource that allow us to create puzzles that englobe all curricular contents we'll want. For example, if you are working animals with your class, you can make a Criss Cross puzzle like the next one: This is a fantastic writting activity that we can use making a writting comprehension, like giving them some clues about the animals, or even we can use some riddles to motivate our students look for the clues. Then they'll have to write their answers and fill out the gaps. I love this resource and I think it can get our students work on a different groups: alone, in little groups or, even, the whole class. What do you think about that? Do you like it?

 Hello!! My name is Elena and I want to be an English teacher. Currently I am studing for that. This blog was born to share some resources and webs I think are interesting to our labour. I would like you to share some more you'll find. I want to start with this link:  clicZone - English (xtec.cat) That's an incredible web where you can find some activities, new free software, documents, etc. For example, I've found a lot of activities that board all english's levels, which is so usefull to us. There, we'll can find activities about colours, animals, food, verbs, euro... Maybe, I think is more focus to Infantil and Primary Education, but even there it's so interesting and easy to browse. I share with you a screenshot of some of resources I've found. My favourite resource of this website is this link:  Phonetics (xtec.cat) I really love it, you have to choose the correct phonetic word, listening to it and to do motivate activities. For this reason, I think is ...
