What is this blog for?

The purpose of this blog is to share ideas for teaching English to kids!

I will include some comments and questions about the topics discussed in class and you have to participate expressing your own points of view. You need to check the blog constantly 'cause depending on your classmates' opinions or ideas, you will answer. It means that you must participate more than once for each comment I publish. Make the blog a dynamic window where we can share links, activities, ideas and any other tool that can help us to teach children.

Hello guys! I´ve enjoyed the subject so much! I hope you have, too! We've been working using games recently! I want you to suggest three web sites were we can find excellent games for teaching English to children! After you paste each link, specify the level in which the game is useful for as well as the content(s) we can teach using such games!
