TeachingEnglish newsletter 22 June 2016

TeachingEnglish - the global home for teachers
22 June 2016

Welcome to the TeachingEnglish newsletter!
This week with the end of another academic year fast approaching, we have an article to help you end on a high note, a review game for kids and Learning Circle ideas which can be adapted to any age.

We also have a number of resources on Assessing learning in our Continuing professional development section.

If you weren't able to join our special webinars to raise awareness of World Refugee Day, recordings are now available to watch on TeachingEnglish and EnglishAgenda.

And, finally, read our latest blog posts on the theme of Managing resources, and find out how to become a registered blogger yourself.

We hope you find these resources useful.

Teaching kids

Lucky number 6 is a quick simple game that reviews question forms and can be used as a warmer or a filler at the end of the lesson with all students aged 7 - 11. All you need is the downloadable worksheet and dice.


Teaching teens

It's possible to adapt many classroom activities to make them suitable for a Learning Circle. Here are a few ideas including vocabulary quizzes, mini presentations, video pals and story competitions. 
Teaching adults

Coming to the end of a course with a group of students can be a very positive time. The last couple of lessons are the conclusion to all that has gone before. Follow this basic plan to make sure you end on a high note.


Development

As the end of another academic year approaches, check out our continuing professional development resources on Assessing learning. In this section you can find useful articles, webinars, blog posts, publications and teaching tips to help you develop in the professional practice of 'Assessing learning'.



Events

If you missed our June webinars to raise awareness of World Refugee Day, you can now watch recordings. On TeachingEnglish Nick Bilbrough talked about his Hands Up! project and in particular the use of simple video conferencing tools.


EnglishAgenda featured 3 speakers looking at secondary teacher training in the context of the refugee population in Palestine.



Magazine

Our four new blog topics for May and June look at the theme of Managing resources. Check out the blogs we've received so far in our Magazine section - Supplementary resource - Virtual Reality in the EFL Class; The Best Teaching Aid Ever!; and Online Resources (how, what, when, how many resources to choose).
