Welcome!

WELCOME!

With the changing demographics in the United States, our role as ESL teachers is constantly changing and growing. This blog is meant to provide other high school ESL teachers with ideas and suggestions for teaching our students, particularly about how to integrate reading, writing, speaking, and listening into our lessons. This is a place to share experiences and find new resources for your classroom, so please share what you have found useful from this site or from your own experiences in the secondary setting. This will help ESL teachers new and old to keep up-to-date on activities, methodologies, and issues in this field.

Thank you and enjoy!

Review Games and Activities

These games and activities could easily be adapted to integrate all 4 skills, and I think they could be used as review activities, especially for thematic vocabulary.  The Fast Words and Word Association games are quick games to review vocabulary and get the students engaged. 

This site also gives an example of a song cloze.  This is something that would be engaging and interesting for students, but the teacher would need to find a song that could support the learning objectives of the class.

You can find this site in my Resources list or you can click here.

  1. It is always good to have an inventory of ideas for games and activities used in the language classrooms. I like the first day ice-breaking activity. I think I might use this one for my class. :)
