Valentines Day ideas for teachers and activities
for students...

  SITES). Useful sites for ESL Students.
• presented by Hubert Sauvageau

My research was done to introduce English (to L2
speakers) in a funny way. Valentine day is a
great topic because students will learn about
valentine day, do great activities and also
improve their English (and computer skills at the
same timewith different games and interesting
web sites)

How do I intend to use these new sites???

• First, I will ask during different period of
  class students to check these sites (4) and do
  some activities. Example Write a Valentine Card
  to a friend or a family member.. I can ask to
  read about Valentine day and then I do a small
  quiz. Furthermore, the other sites have been
  chosen to bring English in a new way of learning
  They are fun. They will bring young students to
  learn English while playing (ex recipe) a game
  (at the same time)
