reply to Kisdobos's post #18 Hi there,Yeah, good idea. I'd like to see some new features in MyPage, the current ones could be improved. My suggestion is "I've been teaching English for XY years/months" I love this site, looking forward to seeing the new developments and I'll spread the word both about the ESL and the DAF sections. 12 hours ago

Hi Everyone,
We're collecting new personals categories (questions) to be included in the MyPage/Info section. If you'd like to see anything added, pls post it here. My ideas are "Name of my current school+city" "Name of my former schools+city" "Favorite ESL links" "My website" "Languages spoken" "My education" "1 amazing thing I've done/seen" "Currently I'm into [a book, movie, hobby, city, etc.]" Pls comment on which ones you think should be included, and feel free to recommend others. 18 hours ago

Hi Everyone,
Thx, Dear Kisdobos, for the links here. They come very handy, indeed, especially the CNN student news, since I teach mostly advanced students. I also have a funny little online gadget to share. You might have played games and activities with a time limit, e.g. the "1 minute speaking" game, where students have to speak for 1 minute without stopping. You probably used your cell phone or a stop watch to measure time. If you have a laptop or projector in your classroom, you could also use an online clock, which is, on the one hand, more visible to students, and on the other, increases the "TV show" like feel to the game. http://www.online-stopwatch.com/large-online-clock/

reply to bendominium's post #16 Hi Bendominium!I agree, the MyPage items don't seem to prompt many to share personals. I'm for changing them. It's actually on our list of necessary changes. I'll take a note of your suggestions, thx. If there's any other ideas, just post it here. I'm eager to hear more of these. 2 days ago

Hey guys
First, you have a great site here - very clean and easy to navigate. Props to you all. Thank you. How about 'favourite blogs' as well as (or instead of) 'favourite other-stuff-that-no-one-seems-to-include' on My Page? I mean, we are in the digital era, after all. (favourite YouTube vids, favourite websites, etc... no?) Just sayin'...

This funny story about a caller who was calling 911 is rich in the reported speech (or "indirect speech").
Ideas as to how to use it: 1. Students write out the actual dialog between the caller and the police dispatcher ("direct speech"). Or vice versa: You write out the actual dialog and the students try to reproduce the text of the story. 2. Follow-up: students make up their own story about calling the police, of course using indirect speech. 3. Your ideas?

ANIMAL NAMES
I recently had an idea for teaching the names of animals. We always teach these names along with the pictures of the animals. But instead of showing pictures, after revising the animal names, we could play the sound they make, plus some hints (e.g. lives in the jungle, has four legs, has spots) in case of more exotic species. Then students can guess which animal they heard. Here's a site where you can download animal sounds from: http://www.grsites.com/archive/sounds/category/25/?offset=24
