It's Christmas again in the ESOL / EFL classroom



It's time to dust off the old Christmas worksheets and pull out the tatty decorations. I've rounded up some of the best stuff on the web in terms of worksheets, shows, interactive games and songs.

Worksheets


The English Language Space Station has some good lessons on Christmas http://www.englishlanguagespacestation.com/ESOL.htm#Festivals and Celebrations in the UK

I also did a lesson on writing Christmad cards right here on the blog http://chrisspeck.wordpress.com/2009/12/08/writing-cards-christmas-cards-for-esol-esl-and-efl/

There are some really good Christmas worksheets from bogglesworld.com http://bogglesworldesl.com/christmas_worksheets.htm

Christmas Shows


Jackie Lawson has some really great, free Christmas shows which I have been sending and showing to my students for years and years, they're brilliant http://www.jacquielawson.com/cards_christmas.asp

Some great shows are also avaliable from Katie's Cards http://www.katiescards.com/ecard-category-christmas-7763.aspx?gclid=CM_0_MGP2qUCFccKfAodLXjTkg

Interactive Games
