Snow Day
This is a passage to practise the use of the past simple. Kelsey and Jack get to school, but they have had a wasted journey. With my advanced class, I blanked out all of the verbs and they had to put in something suitable.

RC: The Tasting of the Marmite!
A straightforward reading comprehension. They read the story and answer the questions. Key included. I have tried to remain objective, but Marmite is really very tasty and students should be given the strongest encouragement to eat it:-)

The Crazy Word Challenge!
These thirty crazy, bonkers, offbeat etc! words have disappeared from the English language. The challenge is to match them up with their meanings. Many of them have linguistic clues and it might be fun putting the students in groups and seeing how many they can get. Full key included, obviously, as you will need it!

Christmas Activities
There are some great cliparts on here! I have set the activities/questions to fly in. You might want to just show the images first and get the pupils to describe them. Or play �Splat!� Two pupils come to the board. Teacher describes an image. The pupil to touch it first is the winner.

Maxims and sayings
Each slide has quotes about a topic e.g. success/love. The ss discuss them in pairs - instructions on first slide. They can then write their own maxims and make posters.

Teaching adverbs in a subtle manner
I went on a course �Grammar for writing� which informs us that you should teach grammar, but in a covert sort of way. I made this little ppt, which will be a nice little starter for reinforcing adverbs.

The UK general election May 2015

Christmas �Guess who I am?� or �Guess what I am?�
The clues first, then the image flies in. This is not an original idea. Also, the last slide isn�t really about Christmas, but I couldn�t resist! ;-)
