Talking English
 Buna ziua!
Do your students speak more than one foreign language? Have a look at the interesting 'Languages' class materials from the British Council Language Assistant site and let them have fun learning how to say 'Hello' in more than fifteen languages!

Looking for ideas to make your classroom more inviting? On Bulletin Boards and Classroom Displays you'll find lots of options for bulletin boards, door designs, and posters to make the most of your classroom. The links section is also worth a trawl!
 A brainy lesson
'The smell of a flower - The memory of a walk in the park - The pain of stepping on a nail. All these are made possible by the three pounds of tissue in our heads... the BRAIN!!' Check out the activities on Neuroscience for Kids, and have a cool brainy lesson!
 Should we teach our students about copyright?
If you, too, have asked yourself the same question, have a look at Captain Copyright - a Canadian website with nice multi-level activities to help students learn about copyright, and which can be used with little or no adaptation to your own context.
 A colourful grammar
How do you teach grammar? Do students find it hard to understand the connections between forms? The English Verb Wall is an approach to teaching the entire pronoun/verb system of the English language through colour. Have a look!
