My 10 minutes on Twitter

 


Twitter can sometimes be overwhelming.

To tell the truth, I don't often use it - I just post my blogs and maybe re-tweet something interesting! But every now and then, I put in a key-word and find really interesting articles and ideas.

Today's key-phrase was "teaching English"

Here's what I found!

  • Creative activities from the TeachingEnglish site, a wonderful chance to get your students talk about important issues:

This free publication describes a range of creative classroom activities aimed at helping you to talk with your students about key issues – such as poverty, hunger and gender equality – raised by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals: teachingenglish.org.uk/article/integr #SDGs

  • Thinking of integrating literature in your class? Now's the time! How about teaching Hemminway with these wonderful resources from We are teachers site?
