Play Free Christmas Games - GoGo Christmas Games The Surprising Realities Behind What Motivates Us in Illustrated Form @Blueluck: Very true - I've seen other countries where people leave their family in another country to go find work, and then to manual labor for extremely cheap just to be able to send it all home to their family. I guess that could be interpreted as their purpose, but the work is not purposeful in and of itself. I guess "pay enough to take money off the table" covers that, so we're only talking about how to motivate people after they're at the comfortable level most Americans that read this blog are at. Interesting results in India, though. I believe there is a threshold that once you're paid a certain amount, you feel on top of things like you deserve it, so you don't work hard to move up further. I think that's one reason government employees aren't known for super service. @Blueluck: Its completely subjective, is the answer.

The Guilty Elf - 20 questions game Genki English » New Christmas Spot the Difference Quizzes Over on the forum Margit was saying how she has used Spot the Difference quizzes to generate lots of conversation in both her kids & adult classes. Margit also also asked for a few more games. So always wanting oblige, here are two new Spot the Difference quizzes, first a really easy one to go with the Let’s make a snowman lesson, where you can say things like “His hat is green” or “The scarf is blue etc. And a slightly tougher one to go with the Gingerbread House lesson (can you get them all?) I’ve made both of these freely available for anyone to download, so if you have any teacher friends who you think might find them useful, be sure to send them the link to this page! And after all the touring, TED and special offer chaos I’ve now got a couple of light weeks before Christmas so if you have any more requests of things you’d like me to make for you, do put them up in the comments! Be genki, Richard P.S. 1. 2. 3. 3 Comments
ICE ICE, BABY: WRITING A CINQUAIN Now, when we are all getting into the festive mood, probably makes an ideal time to discuss some holiday hotspots (or ‘cold’spots). This activity is built around an extremely ‘cold’spot – Ice Hotel – to spark your students’ imagination, discuss unusual ways of holidaymaking and get them to try their hand at writing a cinquain. (A cinquain is a five-line poem that describes a person, place, or thing and has a distinct structure: noun, two adjectives, three verbs, a four-word phrase and a noun). Step 1. Show the following image to your students and say that everything in the place is made up of snow and sculpted blocks of ice. Ask them to think of what this place could be for. (Image credit: -Pixel –, Flickr.com, Creative Commons) Discuss possible options. or play the following video showing the Ice Hotel in Canada Step 2. Ask your students to imagine being in the “ugg boots” of people staying at this hotel. Step 3. What could people do in the Ice Hotel?
