Zoo Reading Comprehension Exercise or Evaluation
I use this as an evaluation at the end of a unit where we read and take notes from several brochures from real zoos. The table is straightforward and requires selecting the relevant information. The questions that follow are more difficult because they require inference.

Firefighter Reading Comprehension
This reading comprehension exercise is part of my reading unit on teamwork. There are a couple of other reading exercises in the same format and an evaluation about a flight crew.

Instructions Song
A song for teaching classroom instructions and a picture dictionary for practising them. Sing the song to the tune of "Head and Shoulders, Knees and Toes" (NOT the tune that sounds like "London Bridge," but the other tune). Use gestures that make sense to you and your students. This song can become a good warm-up routine for the start of class.
