Adapting lessons to make them meaningful to students’ lives in 2021 means that you won’t have to work so hard to engage them in your lesson. They will already be eager to discuss the topic due to its relevance and importance to their current language needs.

In this workshop we will look at some examples of ways to create your own materials to model target language or supplement the textbook, updating activities to online or hybrid platforms through tasks which stimulate students’ imaginations and keep lessons enjoyable and fun! 

We will explore ways to incorporate this into your planning through sample lessons for Lower and Higher levels that will provide suggestions of ways to try this in your lessons, while providing a safe space for learners to develop their language skills in a rapidly changing environment.

We hope that this workshop will inspire you to get creative with the range of online resources available as well as producing your own original materials!
