children�s play - THE TORTOISES� PICNIC
Here�s another play I have to share with you - based on another traditional English story. It�s a funny play about a family of tortoises who decide to go on a picnic. I tried it with preschoolers (6-7 yrs old, 2nd & 3rd year of learning), and with school kids (7-9 yrs old), and both times it turned out great. It combines topics like family, food, n...

HOW PREJUDICED ARE WE?
Talking about prejudice with your students - it pays to dare! This is a detailed, several-pages-long lesson plan for several lessons, with discussion, listening (Free your mind by En Vogue) and reading/writing activity, based on a very contemporary text.

Arthur and the Minimoys
This is a follow-up worksheet for the movie/cartoon Arthur and the Minimoys. It strengthens vocabulary, and reading and writing skills. My students especially love the fact that the pictures are black-and-white, because they love to colour them later on. Enjoy!

St. Patrick�s Day
Here are only some of my St. Patrick�s Day�s favourite activities - a crossword, a song, a text about Ireland and a story about a leprechaun and a greedy lady. The story is really educational and I�ve used it with all my levels - with preschoolers I added mime and sounds and a song afterwards, with intermediates I had a jumbled text to sort out, an...

INKHEART - behind the scenes
Another Inkheart ws - this one is about some trivia behind the scenes (interesting for teenagers). It requires reading and then vocabulary work on the text itself. Again, regardless of the ws, I do recommend the book(s) and the movie to all of you and your sts who love fantasy.

TALES ABOUT TAILS - animal stories with writing activities
There are 2 animal stories with morals here, both with follow-up activity cards (not wss, so you can save some paper and toner), and then several activity cards for a writing workshop to inspire your sts to write in pairs or small groups. It can be fun. I hope you like it.

STARDUST - jumbled movie
I just love Stardust (Robert De Niro, Michelle Pfeiffer, Rupert Everett, Claire Danes) - it is fantasy, with such a funny and grotesque twist to it, and a romantic ending, s a proper fairytale should have. Here�s one of my Stardust wss - this one is the jumbled story (retold movie).

funny things from court
This is a text I got from a friend by e-mail. It�s all kinds of funny things people said at the witness stand. It�s hillarious, but sts lower than advanced maybe won�t get all the jokes, so read through carefully before you use it in class. It�s a great twist on crime/court/law vocabulary, and the last page expands it into a worksheet which is not ...

THE INKHEART PROJECT - the book
If you�ve always loved fantasy stories like I have and were looking for one for your teenagers, Inkheart might be really interesting for you. I�ve used both the book and movie in class, and they�re really interesting - having the gift to read out things and characters from books into real life, who wouldn�t want that? However, "with great power com...
