Thanks for sharing your week 4 materials. Betting games are great fun. I don’t think they are allowed in some countries. That’s a shame but in my experience they really motivate students.
Some comments on the materials.
A nice worksheet – it’s always nice to see a complete set of materials, activity or a game on a single sheet. I think I’d avoid using bold but that’s just a matter of style. With somehting like this you can experiment – it’s always a good idea to ask others which version they like best too, instead of relying always on our own judgement.
The instructions are clear. 3. After checking …
A lovely way to get students to focus on their common errors.
Katherine Bilsborough Thank you for the feedback, Katherine. Thank you for correcting me so gracefully. You're such a kind person. As for different versions and advice from others, I usually show my worksheets and presentations to my children and also to two friends who are teachers, but not EFL teachers. They always give me an honest opinion and good pieces of advice. As it is summer holiday here, I haven't bothered them now. The way I see it, I still have to work on providing my students with good instructions and a step-by-step approach. There is a lot of room for improvement in that area. I have a question for you. May I edit my first two assignments and save them in pdf format before sending you my portfolio?
