Gender Studies | 25 Teenagers Recommend Readings for Women’s History Month In honor of Women’s History Month, we asked our spring Student Council — 25 teenagers from all over the United States, as well as from China, South Korea, England and Canada — to search the Times and find the most interesting pieces they could on the broad topic of gender. Using both Times search and Times Machine, they unearthed everything from a 1911 report on the Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire and a 1972 Times review of “Free to Be … You and Me” to current articles, videos and essays on Hillary Clinton, campus rape debates, gender pronouns, abortion, Title IX, parenting, and the struggles of the transgender community. As your students skim the selections below, they might choose the two or three articles that interest them most, then answer some of these questions: What do these pieces have in common? What patterns do you notice?What do they say about the lives and roles of women and girls? Margaret Atkinson-Barnes, Sag Harbor, N.Y., on “Ana’s Story: Transgender in Cuba” (2014) Video

Adapting games – Drawful This is an adaptation of a fun and inventive game that was released just last year. While the original game is played on a computer, this adaptation for the classroom is played on paper. This is a perfect game for revising chunks of language. In this example my class are revising phrasal verbs. For the game you need a set of sentences (or phrases) that include the language you’re revising (guidance on how to choose your sentences will follow at the end). one of the sentences containing the target language.a sheet of paper ¼ the size of a sheet of A4.four small slips of paper (big enough to write a single sentence).a paperclip. Ask the students to write their sentence on one of the small slips of paper. Ask the students to attach their sentence to the back of the drawing (ensure your instructions are clear and demonstrate to make sure everyone follows). When students have finished their sentences they attach them to the back and pass the picture to the left. Like this: Like Loading...

GT - inget att vifta bort - Mia Smith Många lärare viftar bort digitala verktyg som automatöversättningsverktyg och digitala ordböcker, kanske av okunskap, kanske av rädsla. Men eleverna använder Google Translate oavsett vad vi säger, och att använda verktygen på rätt sätt är en språklig strategi på samma som som att använda en ordbok eller omformulera sina tankar med andra ord. Men hur fungerar det egentligen? Vad ska man tänka på för att inte falla i de fällor som faktiskt finns? Vill du lära dig mer om hur Google Translate fungerar? Nej, det här är inget reklaminlägg. Har du elever som är nyfikna på hur vi går vidare?
