BOARD EVOLUTION


Board is the most basic piece of equipment for a teacher. It is a visual to talk with since you use it as you speak. It started as a small framed slate for individual use and it has evolved to be an interactive digital surface.

Please read the following document.



The important thing is not so much
that every child should be taught,
as that every child should be given the wish to learn.
John Lubbock





FLASHCARDS


Flashcards are fun and attractive, they increase student talk time (production).
These visuals add context to the language learning. They are quick and easy to
use. They allow activities such as repetition and proper scaffolding of the learning



What office is there which involves more responsibility,
which requires more qualifications,
and which ought, therefore, to be more honorable than teaching?
Harriet Martineau

" Success is hidden under a rock of hard work. Keep digging with patience; it's up to you, only."

THE DICTIONARY


Good dictionaries are those that help students produce language rather than only giving the meaning.
This document has a wider explanation on effective use of dictionary in the EFL teaching.


" Many of us have seen little children take their first step in their quest to walk. We watch them wobble and fall so many times, yet they are not discouraged from trying again. In the end, they master the art of walking. You might fall many times in accomplishing your dreams, but don't give up or give in. I see success in the air!"
Written in 2010 by Andrew Effiong --- Nigeria



CARTOONS


Framing instructional material in a humorous way is an excellent way to relieve tension and alleviate stress in the classroom, establish a more human relationship between teachers and students, and potentially increase retention of instructional material.

" Psyche yourself to do your best - all the time! Success will eventually smile at you."
Written in 2010 by Ram N. --- Oman



TEXTBOOKS AND PUPPETS


Textbooks are the most common and obvious form of material support for the language instruction.

Puppets are valuable educational tools. Puppets are both entertaining and captivating. They can stimulate children’s imagination, encourage creative play and discovery and are a wonderful interactive way to introduce instructional material since "puppets are one step away from being human and so there is a distance but at the same time we can identify with them" Dr Lynne Jones.


"Laughter is the shortest distance between two people." Victor Borge
