The most effective collection of ESL games online?

Post by trebor » Tue Dec 21, 2004 10:26 am

After years of using the Internet with my ESL classes, 2 sites stand out for their collection of ESL games:

1. English Maze (www.englishmaze.com)
The best ESL site I've ever seen - period.
Games, activities, Chat, E-pals - everything an ESL teacher could ask for. My students love it.

2. English at Home (www.englishathome.com)
A lovely site which we've been using for some years. A few games and a nice E-pals forum.

Hope you can also share a few resources with me!

This was copied from Hong Kong Pnet website..........
"I was also very impressed with what I saw at the King Lam Catholic School on Friday afternoon. I do believe Pnets have some very creative ideas to share. I saw Toms P6 Phonicball championships where he set up 4 boards mounted on whiteboards the end of the assembly area. The students started at the other end but before they reached the boards and threw a ball he put them through a series of what could only be described as "physical activity English". Students had to hop three times on right foot through a series of circles then on left foot through three more. Run to letter he had chalked on ground and shout out the vowels AEIOU before proceeding to a hoop where he had placed small cardboard circles with blends on them. Students had to pick a blend then think of a word and spell it to the teacher referees before running to the phonicball area and throwing at the target. When they hit a letter they them had to write the name of an animal on the white board. They then ran back to the next team member, who repeated the process. Students watching were all laughing and shouting out English words. Please contact me if you come up with other creative uses as we would love to share them around.
