SIMON AND GARFUNKEL - poetry or songs???
I decided to look for songs that are borderline poetry and remembered Simon and Garfunkel. I wanted something recognizable but not sth my sts hear on the radio every day. I didn�t want many wss or a lot of work for the sts to do, I wanted to create short breaks from double-lessons, or as intro or end to lessons. This is urban poetry with music, and...

safety tips - how safe is our world
I did this one with my FCE students. I got the text by e-mail from a friend and thought it provides good background for a lot of vocabulary work(on page 2) and a strong debate, since at times the safety tips in it seem sensible, and at times I thought �oh, come on, that�s paranoid�. It was an interesting debate, and I even got some spontaneous essa...

LIMERICKS, part 4 - funny limerick story for the third conditional
I�m all about limericks this time - this is the 4th part of my collection. Another funny limerick story by yours truly, this time with activities to practise the 3rd conditional, and discuss stereotype and prejudice. That�s it from me on limericks, really. (But they�re so much fun to do...)

toys - matching ws for kids
This is a very simple ws for smaller kids to match toys and their words. The words are all caps, because preschoolers and 1st graders are more comfortable with these. I use it as a ws, but also as a class poster. I sometimes give them colourful wss as a special reward, but it�s editable so you can print it in b&w if you want to.

THE FISHER KING - detailed movie follow-up
This is a wonderful movie to do with advanced sts (I did it with FCE and CAE groups), because it�s funny, serious, normal and twisted - just like any other Gilliam�s movie. It�s not new, so they probably haven�t seen it, which is great, because you can watch it part by part, and keep them guessing. At first they are a bit confused(with Robin Willia...

TALES FROM SHAKESPEARE - active reading workshop based on Lamb�s stories
This is a workshop I tried with my advanced sts to get them to love Shakespeare. I began with Tales from Shakespeare by Chales and Mary Lamb to get them to love the stories, and worked from there on. All the details are included, and also the link, copies of the texts and additional activities. It motivates active reading and is very effective. I h...

SPRING NATURE - elementary crossword
This is a spring crossword about insects and flowers for elementary sts. The document contains a colour and a black-and-white version, plus a key in the end. One of the first crosswords I made as word.doc. (so go easy on the criticism...)!

This is a short tense revision test for Present Simple and Continuous, Past Simple and Going-to-Future... It covers statements, negatives and questions; it just doesn�t look that serious.
