We are not talking about digital tools - we are talking about different kinds of interesting websites to use to make NO PREP activities, have fun warm-ups, and also create a collection of activities for fast finishers. The third website this school year is PAINT WITH TEXT CALLINGRAM CREATOR, and here is how you can use it in your classroom. The creator lets you paint smaller and bigger letters, change colors, and input your own text to paint with. Vocabulary art - Have students create calligrams using new vocabulary words. They can choose a shape that represents the word (e.g., a tree for the word "forest") and then fill it with the word repeated multiple times. Self-portrait calligrams - Ask students to write a short paragraph about themselves, then use the Calligram Creator to shape the text into a silhouette of something they love (like a favorite animal or hobby). Storytelling with shapes - After reading a story or passage, students can create a calligram that represents a key element of the story (e.g., the main character or a significant object). They can fill the shape with important words or sentences from the text, reinforcing comprehension and summary skills. Grammar in shapes - Focus on a specific grammar point, such as adjectives or verbs. Students can create calligrams by writing sentences or phrases that use the target grammar. For example, a student might create a sun shape filled with sentences using the present simple tense. 💥 Here comes the direct link to our selected free website of the week 💥 https://lnkd.in/dc3kxTdE Let us know if you like the website, and how did you use it in your classroom!

🌟 Last week we dropped the bomb on you and we announced our blended TEFL certification programs with Bridge Education. Together with Bridge Education, we want to offer you top-tier, accredited TEFL certification programs that are designed to fit your needs. In case you missed the news, we are now AN OFFICIALLY AUTHORIZED TEFL CENTER IN SERBIA! Our goal is to support the working of our non-profit, while also providing heavily discounted and accredited TEFL certification in a blended program that hasn’t existed in Serbia yet! 📢 What is an authorized training TEFL center? 📢 An authorized training center is a registered, legal institution that collaborates with Bridge by expanding their online TEFL courses and diplomas and providing localization — face-to-face training designed to fit the specific participant's needs and a teaching practicum. This makes the TEFL training very similar to university education in Serbia — after completing the theoretical part of the course, the participants also need to complete practical activities. ✨ The blended TEFL program in Serbia is officially open, and we are now accepting teachers for the first round of the program. ✨ Send us a DM if you’d like a detailed guidebook on our joint courses (including the time frame, plan, as well as the pricing) - we will be dropping everything in your inbox if you are our email subscriber. 💥Here comes the direct link to the website page with more information💥 https://lnkd.in/dnt5Fcnh #englishforkids #englishforchildren #speakingpractice #onlineenglish #onlineenglishforkids #EdTech #onlineteaching #freeeslmaterials #BridgeEdu #TEFLcertificate #TEFLcertification
