| | | | Welcome to the latest edition of the TeachingEnglish newsletter! For the classroom this week we have a new lesson plan on the theme of World War I, and if you would like to try 'teaching unplugged' we have an article to help get you started.
We also have a presentation on storytelling in the digital age and an exciting seminar this week to celebrate the Dylan Thomas Centenary.
Finally, don't forget the Assessment in ELT: Opportunities and Challenges conference takes place next month, and registration for our Primary Essentials course is now open.
We hope you find these useful. Best wishes Deb TeachingEnglish Team | British Council | BBC | | |
| | |  | Storytelling is one of the oldest human activities. Everyone tells stories: be it the plot of a film you have seen or a book you have read, an eventful journey, a memory of your childhood or merely something that happened to you on the bus coming to work.

The most important part of 'Teaching Unplugged' for the teacher is not how you generate the emergent language (that is the language that the students produce as they are talking) but what you do with the language.
