One of the great things about being here at KNUE is that we can share information about teaching with each other. I really hope that you take the time to explore new ideas and new resources with your instructors and other teacher trainees in the program. Here are a few websites that I've found useful for my own lesson planning.
| BBC Learning English | This site has a lot of great audio with scripts including a weekly interactive 'teen' soap opera. Lots of vocabulary building activities as well. |
| Discovery Puzzle Maker | You can make all kinds of puzzles to boost your student's vocabulary at this site. |
| Dave's ESL Cafe | This site has idioms, slangs, quizzes and a great discussion board for teachers to get answers and ideas from. |
| The ESL lounge | I get a lot of my game boards here as well as some great ideas for targeting specific language problems. |
| BBC Teaching English | This site has interesting lesson plans, ideas and articles on English education |
| The Word Detective | This site helps you look up the origin of an English word. |
| Executive Planet | I've had a lot of luck getting cultural information from this site to combine with English lesson plans. |
| Karin's ESL Party Land | Both teachers and students can find resources on this page. |
| Clip Art Collection for ESL Classes | For those of you who want to use images but can't draw, this site could help. |
| The Favorite Poem Project | You can find poems being read aloud on video with the scripts. I've used it for listening and pronunciation. |
| Selected Links for ESL Teachers | Here is a list of various websites made for the ESL teacher. You might have to search around for exactly what you need but I've had luck on this site. |
