Police emergency

This resource is taken from the Be safe UK series of resources which aims to give learners the confidence needed to be able to call for help in the event of an emergency.

Learning about Wales

What do your students know about Wales? Try this lesson and help them learn more about an interesting part of the UK.

Big numbers

Lots of our students have problems with big numbers. Sometimes they don’t know where to say ‘and’. Sometimes they confuse numbers like ‘sixteen’ and ‘sixty’. In this lesson students revise big numbers in a fun way. First they play a guessing game, then they play Bingo! They finish with a pair work jigsaw reading activity.

Jigsaw reading activity

This reading and speaking activity provides practice in giving clear instructions and explaining the rules of a game. Students can then play the games as an extension activity.

Vision off - YouTube technique

This YouTube activity really gets your students thinking creatively. A short film is played for the students, but they can’t see the scene, they can only hear it.

Encouraging migration

In this speaking activity students have to look at how to encourage migration to an imaginary city. They look at a number of projects to help support this and have to agree how to allocate a budget.  The activity is based on themes from the British Council OPENCities project www.opencities.eu
