Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ESL Miscellany, now in its sixth edition, is a well-loved, eclectic compendium of useful and interesting information for teachers and advanced English Language Learners. It is known among teachers as "the book you would most want to have with you if you were stuck on a desert island or teaching in a very remote place." It can be used in the following ways: 1) as a resource for developing your own lessons or a complete curriculum; 2) as a photocopiable source for handouts; 3) as a guideline for those who practice eclecticism; and 4) as a reference book for teachers and advanced students of English anywhere in the world. The ESL Miscellany is divided into five parts called Aspects, which consist of extensive, reliable lists covering almost every aspect teachers need: - The Linguistic Aspect contains information about the language (North American English) itself, including Phonology, Morphology, Lexicon, and Grammar. - The Communicative Aspect outlines the way in which the language is used to send and receive messages. It includes checklists of Situational Contexts (basic daily needs, work, education, recreation) and checklists of Topical Content (food, cooking, eating, clothes), as well as a Communicative Functions Checklist for various language levels. - The Cultural Aspect provides extensive information about the culture of the US and Canada, and their respective people and governments. Interesting and helpful statistics support this information. Topics include cities and states of the US, provinces and major cities of Canada, entertainers, heroes, the US National Anthem, the Canadian National Anthem, the Declaration of Independence, the Pledge of Allegiance, and more. -The Metalinguistic Aspectand Miscellaneous Materials section includes materials which help facilitate the teaching/learning process as well as various materials which don't fit neatly into other categories. Topics include a Glossary of Grammatical Terms, a Brief Guide to Pronunciation, Roman Numerals, and Measurement Terms and Equivalents. - The Paralinguistic Aspect includes some examples of communicative systems which lie outside of the language itself, such as International Sign Language, Parental Gestures, Children's Gestures, Gestures of Greeting and Leave-taking. Of high interest is a photographic catalog of 61 gestures which are commonly used in North America.

Download or read book Index Card Games for ESL written by and published by Pro Lingua Associates Inc.. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 7 games, easy to prepare and play using photocopies and 3 x 5 index cards. Three of the games are new with the 3rd edition and the rest are up-dated and revised. Student-centered activities provide practice in: vocabulary building sentence/paragraph structure pronunciation & spelling questioning conversation The explanation of each game includes a brief description of the game and a statement of its purpose, instructions for playing the game both for the teacher and for the students (in the target language), variations, and a list of grammar, vocabulary, and conversation situations which can be practiced with the game. A "starter kit" of sample games at the elementary, intermediate, and advanced levels is given for each game. Once the target language samples are put on index cards and the class has fun using the game, the same techniques can be used to practice whatever language or cultural information the students need to work on. The possibilities are endless. Language games are useful pace breakers. But more than that, they build a spirit of cooperation and of shared learning. The games were developed by teachers at the School for International Training.

Book excerpt: TIPS - A Guidebook for Teaching Excellence in ESL - is a necessary tool for teaching and learning English as a Second Language. The book is a sampler containing useful information regarding the history of the English language, the correlation between language and culture, and provides a solid framework with which to create meaningful contexts in the teaching and learning of correct grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing, and literature at various levels of English proficiency. The major sections of the book start with TIPS and practical information addressed to the ESL teachers (and students), and the main purpose is to help instructors deliver interesting, productive, and effective content in the classroom. The author reveals the need for teachers to elevate the students’ motivation by positioning the learning as a discovery process. They become more and more eager to find out about the how’s and why’s of the development of the language. The book collects practical information on a variety of topics and the research behind them in an easy-to-use format.

Download or read book The Idiot written by Elif Batuman and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-02-13 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Book Review Notable Book • Finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction • Longlisted for the Women's Prize for Fiction “Easily the funniest book I’ve read this year.” —GQ “Masterly funny debut novel . . . Erudite but never pretentious, The Idiot will make you crave more books by Batuman.” —Sloane Crosley, Vanity Fair A portrait of the artist as a young woman. A novel about not just discovering but inventing oneself. The year is 1995, and email is new. Selin, the daughter of Turkish immigrants, arrives for her freshman year at Harvard. She signs up for classes in subjects she has never heard of, befriends her charismatic and worldly Serbian classmate, Svetlana, and, almost by accident, begins corresponding with Ivan, an older mathematics student from Hungary. Selin may have barely spoken to Ivan, but with each email they exchange, the act of writing seems to take on new and increasingly mysterious meanings. At the end of the school year, Ivan goes to Budapest for the summer, and Selin heads to the Hungarian countryside, to teach English in a program run by one of Ivan's friends. On the way, she spends two weeks visiting Paris with Svetlana. Selin's summer in Europe does not resonate with anything she has previously heard about the typical experiences of American college students, or indeed of any other kinds of people. For Selin, this is a journey further inside herself: a coming to grips with the ineffable and exhilarating confusion of first love, and with the growing consciousness that she is doomed to become a writer. With superlative emotional and intellectual sensitivity, mordant wit, and pitch-perfect style, Batuman dramatizes the uncertainty of life on the cusp of adulthood. Her prose is a rare and inimitable combination of tenderness and wisdom; its logic as natural and inscrutable as that of memory itself. The Idiot is a heroic yet self-effacing reckoning with the terror and joy of becoming a person in a world that is as intoxicating as it is disquieting. Batuman's fiction is unguarded against both life's affronts and its beauty--and has at its command the complete range of thinking and feeling which they entail. Named one the best books of the year by Refinery29 • Mashable One • Elle Magazine • The New York Times • Bookpage • Vogue • NPR • Buzzfeed •The Millions
