On today’s session (11th), we were shown varied and helpful resources for teaching English.
The categories are the following:
<!-Reading
<!-Kids
<!-Blogs
GRAMMAR AND VOCABULARY
On the grammar and vocabulary section we can find:
The activities of ESL/EFL learners website, where one can fulfill tasks in English and in many other languages (monolingual and bilingual)
We have grammar and vocabulary quizzes.
It doesn´t require any subscription and the activities are organized by levels of difficulty.
The grammar net website is designed by students and its materials are photocopiable and downloadable for free. We can copy the worksheets, use the materials and it has got many explanations about the exercises. Students or anyone else can check their own work and score.
WRITING RESOURCES
Purdue University Online Writing Lab: We found the website very professional; when we go through it we see that it provides us resources for students according to their grades; for professional writers and parents as well.
The National Writing Project website emphasizes the importance of writing and provides many ideas for teaching writing.
LISTENING RESOURCES
BBC Education is our favourite because it´s highly resourceful and fully varied in materials and ideas. It’s also a very reliable website containing trustworthy information.
In the “English meeting website” the students can read, listen and watch videos at the same time and practise the main skills.
PRONUNCIATION
Back to BBC! Here one finds the sounds of English, the similarity of the sounds, spelling and quizzes for foreigners. It also contains free videos, recordings and quizzes to help learners practice English pronunciation.
English Club.com - here you have forums for pronunciation; phonetics, word stress, homophones, English phonetic spelling and even a phonetic chart!
Very good organisation of the amount of info you were given that day! I'd only suggest you insert the links for some of the websites related to grammar and vocabulary and the BBC.
