December TIE Meeting Teaser

12/2/2015

0 Comments

 

On Thursday afternoon, this week, we will have our TIE meeting. I have found some information that I think you will all benefit from. 

I subscribe to a site called Busy Teacher and get a lot of ideas from them. This week they were focusing on ways to use movies and DVDs in the classroom. It was great! I think we miss some great opportunities to stimulate discussions if we don't use this medium.
I also found some suggestions for using cartoons. This was in a separate article on the web but great ideas. Cartoons are usually short and they use simple English, spoken clearly (unless it is Elmer Fudd or Donald Duck). 
There were a few new ESL website links that I want to share with you also. 
​Hope I see you there.
If you want to get a preview, just copy and paste this link in your address window.
Let me know what you think.
