            I think a new category is required to hold lessons relating to electronics.  This is a 4-page printable, involving topic prediction, reading, vocabulary, and discussion.  An answer sheet is also provided.  A couple of the questions refer to Japan, where I live, but those questions can either be deleted or altered to suit your particular country.

            Christmas Taboo Cards with backsheet 
            
            These taboo cards can be used in two ways.  First, students can play the game by taking a card, saying all 3 words and having other students guess the title word.  Second, students can play like regular taboo by NOT using the 3 words, therefore using other words and having other students guess the title word.

            Vampire Test 
            
            Here is a fun activity to do with students during the Halloween season.  I based my activity on similar ones I�ve used from the site �Lanternfish�.  My activity is different from the ones on that site and my activity also has a point system, whereas the activities on Lanternfish did not.  I am thankful to that site for providing me with the insprir...

            fast food taboo game 
            
            This is a card game I play with students  when we discuss food.  For lower level students, have the students read the 3 words on the card and have other students guess the food.  For higher level students (or after playing it the easy way), tell the students that the 3 words on the card are taboo/cannot be used and that they must explain the food u...

            christmas worksheets 
            
            There are 3 levels of worksheets here.  I pre-teach the vocabulary used on the worksheets using cards, then use the worksheets as a review.  Each worksheet contains 2 pages.  You can also print the worksheets on one page, and put another activity on the other side to keep the faster students busy while others are still writing.

            This is a reading I made for students.  The vocabulary can be put onto cards and pre-taught to students.  It is a challenging reading, but if desired the passage can be made into a cloze passage, either putting spaces  for all the vocabulary or making it into an A/B activity.
