100 Games for ESL Teachers
This is an update, which had to happen as I have hit 100 Games on my list. I think my first posting of this to ESL printables was 56 games only. Again, this is a random mix of games for all levels and ages. Many of the games were my own idea but most are from other teachers I have worked with so thanks to all the inspirational colleagues that have...

47 Games List & basic instructions
I thought I would finally get around to writing this up. I have a list of almost 50 games that I use in different classes of different ages and levels. I have not put them in any particular order, just as I remembered them. I am sure even experienced teachers will learn at least a few new games. I have picked these up from other teachers mostly, bu...

Chinese School life
A simple little reading and writing task I made for a 1:1 student that could also be used to create a pair or class discussion. I included a little grammar transformation activity with might and usually just to add an extra task.

Directions Pair Work Gap fil
While there are many maps on this site, I wanted a pair work activity so that one student will give directions and their partner will mark the final location on their map. Each map has opposite locations so they can�t actually use building names, which makes it too easy. This way, they have to talk about streets and which building. EG It�s the 3rd ...

Directions- running dictation
Another work sheet to accompany my sheet �Directions Pair Work Gap Fill�, to be done in the next lesson. This time I plan to use this as a running dictation. If you don�t know what a running dictation is you are missing out on the BEST activity ever for ESL classes for ALL ages. I start by putting the written directions outside the classroom (or ...

It�s my Life- Choose your own adventure

It starts with which major to study at unversity and can finish with riches or cleaning toilets. Click yes or no to follow the story t...

Memory Template
A PPT I made to play memory with my students. you need to put up to 15 vocabulary pictures into a blank slide, then cut and paste this over the pictures.

Parachute Man
This is a fairly simple PPT I made of a game I have been playing for years. I have always preferred Parachute man to Hangman because it�s easier to remove strings than draw a man being hung. (as well as being less morbid) I have not put the vocab in as I figure every teacher and class will use dif...
