Get your ESL students to honour puzzles of all shapes and forms by having them do one on Puzzle Day (January 29th)! While the reason behind this day may be a bit unclear, it does mean something for the millions of puzzle fanatics around the world.
The mighty CROSSWORD puzzle and the latest craze of SUDOKU are just a few popular ones that continue to entertain, challenge and sharpen minds. For many, puzzles have been a creative and entertaining way to pass the time and relief boredom.
In the ESL world, using puzzles can add some fun and liven up any classroom. Puzzles can also be a great way to reinforce vocabulary words, build on certain grammar points or review teaching topics.

Beautiful website, Carolyn. I love using Sudoku when I teach modals of probability. It CAN'T be a nine. The two MUST go there. That COULD be a two or a four. A seven MIGHT go here. I hope you'll visit my new website, too!
ReplyDeleteThank you Kelly!
