Alphabet in English. http://www.edunet.com/english/sounds/a-e.au On this website the speaker pronounces the alphabet. Thats it. mlp American Accent Training http://www.americanaccent.com/analysis.html This web site is primarily an ad for a product, but it does have quite a lot of information that students can read about English sounds and intonation. mlp www.eslcafe.com/slang Teachers will have to visit this site and create the activity, as there is just a list here. You could send teams of 2 or 3 to the site to create a dialogue using at least 5 items from these pages; or create a quiz for class that students study for by visiting the pages. http://www.csulb.edu/~phoneme/pronun_class.html www.access.digex.net/~nuance/keystep1.html http://sorak.kaist.ac.kr/~aizen/pron.html This site offers pronunciation practice especially for Korean speakers of English . (CS) http://www.geocities.com/athens/aegean/6720 English Idioms and Idioms Quizes This site has idioms (useful/common, not too strange or dated) that are organized alphabetically, broken down into 3-letter groups (A,B,C) for example. Then there is a quiz for each 3-letter section, plus answers. This would be useful for students who enjoy studying idioms on their own or for teachers who would like to teach idioms in small chunks. (slm) http://www.elfs.com/ELFsX.html Several activities related to speaking. mlp Presentations http://www.eslcafe.com/search/Public_Speaking/ This site lists references full of useful tips for successful public speaking. You could send AEP students here in pairs to read and then make mini-presentations to the class on their findings. You might ask them to look for two different references that mention nervousness or anxiety and then compare and contrast the suggestions given. (BI) |
