This is an idea on how to get your students to read through different texts at more advanced levels. It�s a game for groups - simple assembling various topics texts in jumbled paragraphs, but the texts are not that easy to deal with. The instructions are inside, and you can edit if you want.

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...

NATASHA BEDINGFIELD - lyrics detectives

I even used Soulmate as a dictation later on and they liked doing it like that (although, for a singing dictation, I would alw...
