Hi! I have created a website, WordSpark, to share my ideas for teaching English. It focuses on a communicative approach using music, movies, art, reading, puzzles, worksheets, labeled pictures and unique activities. It's a great way to engage your students using real-world topics that they are interested in.

One of my favorite new activities is "Correct the LOLcat." This can be a fun activity to do in the computer lab or as homework. LOLcats have bad spelling and grammar, so it is up to the student to correct them. Students can post their answers in the comment section of each post or you can discuss their ideas for correction in class. These links will take you to the first three I have done:

I am going to post a new one each week, so be sure to bookmark my site, http://zachary-jones.com/english to see the new ones as they come out.

This sounds great! LOLcats are quite cute and attention-grabbing so the students will be more interested in the lesson or assignment. This is a great idea...
