All About Me
I prepared this activity to get the grade 3 level kids to practice the material before their exam. It includes all the topics except weather and directions (since they have a good handle on that), but it is editable so you can change it. These self-intro type activities go over well in Korea. Also, at the end of each student�s speech, I ask questio...

Crossword Puzzle with IPA clues (and definitions)
This is a great crossword puzzle using IPA sounds and definitions. I prepared it for my TESOL program for adults. I used the words and definitions as referenced in the worksheet at the end, but it still took me three hours to put it together. Hope you can use it!

Find Someone Who
I teach Environmental concerns (global warming) to adults whom I have for one or two 90 minute classes. I use this ice-breaker at the beginning of the first class. It gets them thinking about environmental issues, and it�s a fun beginning to a serious class. Highly recommended for similar type classes. It is FULLY editable so you can replace the pi...

Needs and Wants
I teach Economics to EFL English Village kids in S. Korea. I use this worksheet at the end of a 90 minute class to "wrap things up." Even the big kids like to color. Of course, you have to have the supplies -- crayons, glue stick, and scissors. You could substitute color pictures and just have them cut and paste.

Classifying Factors of Production
I teach Economics to EFL kids in Korea. This is a worksheet I designed to help them understand the different items that can be classified as land, labor or capital. In particular, that land can actually be the natural resource "water." Hope someone finds it useful. Know it has limited appeal.

Great ice breaker for environment/ecology theme for adults classes. Fully editable. (Replace picture of minister of environment with one from your own country). Or any bubble can be reworked.

The Rainforest Song by JP Taylor
This is a great song if you are doing a Greenhouse Effect or Global warming class. The song can be easily found on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrcU514z6nM). The words are on the screen of the song. It gives the students a great way to practice the rhythm of English, and it�s very appropriate. I have the students repeat the words after m...

KWL Chart for Greenhouse Effect Vocabulary
I use this KWL chart as a warm-up exercise for my Greenhouse Effect class for Korean middle school students. This way I see how much they already know so I know how to proceed. Use it in combo with the Greenhouse Vocabulary with pictures that I uploaded. I find it very useful.
