Wow! So many amazing videos this month. What is a Moment? has a beautiful discussion (and is also a great video for use with students).The  Bill Cosby commencement address also got many hits. However, the vote (most hits) this month goes to 6 Billion Others - an amazing series of interviews with subtitles. Real Wisdom!

View our whole directory of hundreds of THE BEST VIDEOS. Don't forget ourA/V Player and I'd also suggest our new H.S. Musical page and resources!

As always - New Elementary Resources!    Silly Symphonies Videos  is a series of old comics with great content for contextualizing learning.    Guess Who/What   is a fully editable game. Students choose a box and take a guess at the vocab. item!     Pass the Paper Games  are my own invention after being inspired and reminded of this technique by a teacher whose classroom I visited. JUST TRY IT! Many, and no need to explain - your students will love it! Other new resources include:          Discussion Questions               Spin the Question          Proust Interviews    

    I've been busy helping English Central design their Teacher's Area. English Central is an amazing tool, backed by Google for the benefit of helping English Language Learners around the world.
