Another tip for yesterday’s “What do you want to do?” song is that it’s very easy to change into “What do you want to be?”, which can otherwise be a bit of a mouthful to teach in one go. From a motivation/careers education perspective, remember it’s not just English that we teach, “I am a pilot” is a much better phrase than “I want to be a pilot” though. For children to actually see themselves in the role makes it a much more solid aim and much more likely to come true. Do you want to be the best teacher in the world or are you the best teacher in the world? : )

Anyway, after last month’s Photo Real Flashcards I’ve had lots of really great feedback, thank you very much. And one of the biggest requests was for Jobs Photo Real Flashcards. We’re still working on them and they are looking good…. so as a little taster, try clicking on the doctor dude above. You’ll need your CD Owners Password, or if you don’t have one yet simply order a Download Pack and you’ll have them for tomorrow’s class!

P.S. today’s new game is Atley Jonas’ “Ewww..gross“, but be warned it’s not for the feint hearted!

Hello, I'm Richard Graham. When I was a kid I found school to be sooooo boring... So I transformed my way of teaching. I listened to what the kids were really wanting to say and taught it in ways they really wanted to learn. The results were magical. Now I help teachers just like you teach amazing lessons and double your incomes!
