29 October 2014 12:15:55 PM |
passive at adv level: IMO, LOADS of words, just not used. So lots of group work, exposure 2 texts 4 discusion ... etc #eltchat (forgot hash) |

| StudyBundles |
29 October 2014 12:21:16 PM |

@MarjorieRosenbe @Marisa_C I tried 2 get sts 2 'draw' them - only worked if they are visual/artistically inspired. Disappointing .. #eltchat |

@Marisa_C @HadaLitim Some puritans are against idioms and metaphors - they think they complicate the messsage. #eltchat |

Make recycling relevant - put words in context, show sts why & when they need them. #eltchat |
