class chant together and no one feels that they are on the spot. This site
has a variety of chants and they give suggestions as to when to clap and
other body and face movements. Chanta are a fun way to learn English. from Carmen Lopez |

Users are encouraged to make their own dictionary files so that their students may focus on exactly the terms which they need to know." | The grammar gorillas selection is very good for developing and checking basic grammar skills. There is also the option of setting up a free account in which the web site will e-mail you the results of any activities you choose. Jennifer Dewey |
