Apologies for submitting this assignment late.
Apologies for submitting this assignment late. The attached lesson plan is for B2/C1 Business English learners. It is designed for 60 minute 1-2-1 Skype class. I removed one paragraph from the original article to make it shorter. When I did the vocab profiling, almost 20% of the words were 'off-list'. Many of these were the more interesting business/marketing words and this vocabulary would be crucial to having a good understanding of, and ability to discuss the topic, hence I believe this article would be most suited to higher level learners than the profile results would suggest. I would use an interactive whiteboard throughout the lesson to illustrate the grammar points/lexis that are the focus of the lesson.

Title
This puzzle was designed today from scratch, since I wanted to make it appropriate for use by any teacher interested.
In Greece the majority of coursebooks are accompanied by a book called ‘Companion’ which contains the new vocabulary in each unit. In levels A1 - C2 under each word there is its explanation in English, an example sentence containing the word, synonyms, antonyms, derivatives and the Greek translation of the word. So, to make this puzzle I usually use vocabulary I have set as homework in the previous lesson and I copy the original sentences from the companion, which helps the students who have studied guess the words easily .
Please feel free to have a look at it. Any comments would be much appreciated.

Hi Everyone!
Hi Everyone!
For this assignment I designed a board game to review and practice superlatives.

I really cannot visualise myself as a material designer 12 months from now.
I really cannot visualise myself as a material designer 12 months from now. I can only ensure that I will always try to do my best in order to make my students happy and help them in discovering their potentials ans their skills. As far as personal creativity and productivity is concerned all I know is that I will be in the process of conducting my dissertation starting in October. This will definitely involve a lot of deep thinking, writing, designing, creating, researching, data collecting, analysing and evaluating. And .. maybe, if things go well I will be conducting my Phd proposal in a year from now...
Hello everyone.
Hello everyone. I tried to design a fun activity for young learners from different backgrounds who get to know each other in class. The purpose of the activity is to enhance cultural identity in classroom and give students the chance to use home language in order to feel comfortable and secure in the learning environment.

Hi Guys!
Hi Guys!
This is my lesson for Assignment 3. I chose a print advertisement about plastic pollution on the beaches to base my lesson on. Students discuss characteristics of print ads and how this specific piece conveys its message. After that, they compare the ad to other two pieces and do a task to expand vocabulary on environmental issues. At the end of the lesson, they create their own environmental ad and share it with their classmates.
I'm not very happy with the images in Activity 4. I got them from Pixabay, a free image bank. A paid image bank such as Shutterstock will definitely have better images to convey the ideas.
In this Assignment I tried to go for short and objective rubrics, so teachers will need to read the Teacher's Notes to carry out the tasks. Also, I have included some points for further discussion in the notes.
