Fruit and vegetables
Food is a popular topic in any primary course and has a lot of potential for cross-curricular work with nutrition. Learners practise pair interaction with a short dialogue, and there are also some activities that encourage support at home to help parents become involved in the English their child is learning.

Managing the lesson: self-study booklet
In this freely downloadable self-study guide, teachers will find some useful theory and practice on managing lessons effectively, including short case studies and professional development activities to do individually and with colleagues. Teacher educators can also use the materials with developing teachers to help assess and address their learning needs.
Don't forget why you became a teacher in the first place
'Sometimes teaching hurts. Sometimes it is difficult and nonsense. But in your heart you know that it is not always like that, it is just a temporary feeling. Just try to remember why you became a teacher.' In this positive and encouraging post, Ingrid Mosquera describes some of the ups and downs of teaching, and reminds us why we became teachers in the first place.
