   Foldables are a great way to make your lessons "active" and also more about fostering thinking skills.

They can be of all sorts. Just start with a piece (or pieces) of paper and get the students folding and labeling.  Like HERE.

They can be as elaborate as Accordion Books or as simple as a 4 square graphic organizer. Go

Kids love to draw! Use that interest to develop their English.

This lesson recipe is my "go to" lesson. An idea which you can use at the last minute for almost any children's class. Also a good lesson when unprepared or just plain tired/hungover! (it happens).

Give each student a blank A4 piece of paper. Draw a large rectangle on the board. Give the chalk…

2.  Show…

I am a BIG fan of not only teaching English but teaching thinking skills. We have to do both (and always spice with happiness!). This game really gets students thinking and you'll be amazed at their creative minds and answers! 1.  Practice the song above, "One of these things is not like the others" , a Sesame Street classic. It will get students engaged and ready for the game. Maybe just the…

Children, especially young boys, love cars! Pop up cars are great for talking about colors and car vocabulary. Get the children coloring their cars and then cut them out, fold and show and tell to the whole class! They will love their cars! Get the pop up cars on EFL Classroom 2.0 , here. The old pop up cars website seems to have…

This game is also known as 7 up.

Select 4-5 students and give them a flashcard/picture.

All other students put their heads down and one thumb up. The other students go around the classroom and gently squeeze one student's thumb. They return to the front of the class.

The student's whose thumbs were squeezed stand up and guess who did it by stating the vocabulary on the flashcard "Did a "bear" squeeze me?". …

This is a fun way to teach English "physically". Students spell words on the back of their partner who must guess what they wrote!  Also, do the same thing but this time, they write on the palm of their partner (who has their eyes closed). Also try Skywriting.  The teacher writes in the sky and students try to guess the word/sentence. Then, the students can try in pairs…

This is a variation of the famous "Telephone" game. 

Write a word on a slip of paper and show it to a student. This student must whisper it to the second student. Then the second student must draw a picture of what he or she heard, and show it to the third student. The third student, then, writes the word that represents the picture and shows it to the fourth student…
