The alphabet & Personal pronouns [Back to basics]

Are you bored of teaching the alphabet as always. Why don't you teach the technological alphabet?

But if you want to hear it again for those in need: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fw3l1z9CUQ&feature=relmfu

Revise personal pronouns and possessive with your students. First, tell them to check similarities and differences among them. Then let them fill a grid with missing gaps.

	Personal Pronouns		Possessive		Reflexives
	Subject	Object	Adjectives	Pronouns
1	I	me	my	mine	myself
2	You	you	your	yours	yourself
3	He	him	his	his	himself
3	She	her	her	hers	herself
3	It	it	its	its	itself
1	We	us	our	ours	ourselves
2	You	you	your	yours	yourselves
3	They	them	their	theirs	themselves

I APABAL Convention "Energizing Teaching"

Summer break is over. We restarted school last Monday with the September teacher's board meeting and immediately afterwards, some of my students came to revise their contents in the September retakes. They were doing an extra effort during the summer completing some summer tasks and updating their unsucceeded June subjects.
 If you are a universitarian, you may still have some shortly. 

During the summer, I have been preparing a short talk at the I APABAL Convention in Palma, "Energizing Teaching". I am part of a round table Present Challenges for the English Language Teacher where I am modestly talking about  Creativity. I hope that everyone enjoys it as much as I have enjoyed  while preparing it.
