The environment… play and learn

Here’s the British Council website with a set of resources regarding the environmental issue:

A game to learn how to diversify rubbish:

A word game, very easy and rewarding:

It’s about time!

I’m back!

Back after an almost three-week daily struggle with my three daughters… Happy New Year!

Here’s a link to The British Council… about time! Different interactive activities as well as print-outs. Nice for young learners.

I’ll be back with new materials very soon.



A Green House, not a greenhouse

5 12 2007

Nice and short activity from time4kids.jpg, a nice website from Time magazine, which offers adapted news and other resources. Maybe the focus is a bit too much on the USA, but some things are useful. The game zone gives the same impression, but this activity I’m posting here on a green house, is a very interesting way to help students learn how to be more environmentally-friendly. It’s not a game, really, it’s just a small applet, but nice!

Refugees: Learn and play

16 11 2007

UNHCR (Spanish ACNUR) has created a vidogame, Against All Odds, to help people understand everything refugees have to undergo if they want to flee their country and reach a safe shelter. It is in English and it contains materials for the teacher. Give it a try!
