Dumb ways to die
This is a material based on a Melbourne Metro Safety Campaign, which received several awards. The song is funny, catchy, and cute. I made the lyrics into a vocabulary/reading comprehension type of activity. I hope your students like it as much as mine did.

Father and Son by Cat Stevens
This song is nice to use as a warm up for discussions about family relationships. The vocabulary is not hard, and its pace is slow enough for students to follow easily. I made the activity so as to also raise awareness about parts of speech.

Memory: what it is and how it works
Memory is essencial in learning a language, so I read a lot about this topic.

The title could be "The deaf frog", but that would be a spoiler, because the fact that the frog is deaf is key to understanding its reaction. I put this lesson together because I believe that in order to learn a language people need a lot of encouragement, and...
