Create your own interactive teaching materials using Hot Potatoes

2008-01-04T17:37:00.000+01:00

Look at some examples of exercises created by Hot Potatoes on http://www.englishquizzes.prv.pl/

When you save or export your sound file in MP3 format select the best settings for the internet - 32 kbps and 11.025 kHz.

In groups of 4 record yourselves talking about either:

2008-01-04T12:50:00.000+01:00

Work with a partner and talk about how you think blogs can benefit us as teachers. Consider:

how you can use them yourself
(if you have secondary classes) how you could use them with your students
how they can encourage learner autonomy

Then join together with another pair and discuss the points you've raised.

Suggestions for using DVDs in class

Nowadays we have the possibility to use the latest films in class with children, the market is full of movies they like.
You can find them in Public libraries, video clubs, shops…it is very easy to choose the appropriate one for the task you want.
The latest in DVD are:
Ratatouille
Movida bajo el mar
Locos por el surf
Santa Claus 3
You can watch with your students in the classroom about ten minutes of the recording only to listening to real English, or to compare the different voices, you can replay little dialogues…
The DVDs have also extra information about the actors, they have interviews, puzzles, games, karaoke, musical videos etc
They can have fun and enjoy themselves with real and good English.
The teacher has the chance to work on a determinate character, for example Harry Potter, he is an English boy and we are used to hear his voice in Spanish. We can watch the film in different languages, read the several books in Euskara and English for example, take advantage of the marketing of the product with the cartoons, cards, sweets, stickers, fancy dresses…
It is an easy way to improve our listening skills.

; Music by elton johnLyrics by bernie taupin

Available on the album blue moves

What have I got to do to make you love me

What have I got to do to make you care

What do I do when lightning strikes me

And I wake to find that youre not there

What do I do to make you want me

What have I got to do to be heard

What do I say when its all over

And sorry seems to be the hardest word

Its sad, so sadIts a sad, sad situation

And its getting more and more absurdIts sad, so sad

Why cant we talk it over

Oh it seems to me That sorry seems to be the hardest word

What do I do to make you love me

What have I got to do to be heard

What do I do when lightning strikes me

What have I got to do

When sorry seems to be the hardest word

Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word Lyrics
