PEER PRESSURE
I use it with my 10-11-graders as an opening to the topic "Peer Pressure". After we read the article we have a discussion and they usually get really involved in it.

Past Simple through the Song
An old but still nice song to revise Past Simple. If you play the guitar, you may bring it and sing instead of listening to the song on a disc. First I ask students to try and guess the missing words just from the worksheet. My students liked it very much.

This activity is not really mine, our university teacher conducted something similar many years ago. I just simplified the activity and adapted it for my school students. After we learn the appropriate vocabulary, I divide the class into 2 (or more) groups and give them one of the pages with the task. While discussing and writing they aren�t allowe...
