Game: The Hangman

How to play games using the Whiteboard: My favourite game, The Hangman.


Have you ever played this game? I'm sure you have played it at least once in your life! 
We sometimes play Hangman with kids when teaching the alphabet, but it is also an interesting game for other types of activities.
Can you guess how?

The Hangman is an incredible time-saver in your lessons. Do not prepare worksheets for that day, and  use the last 15 minutes to play with them. 
Have you got a projector and a whiteboard in the class? Great! Ask your students to be the teachers during the game. They will love using the whiteboard as well as solving the exercises.

Playing games creates a better atmosphere in the class and you can apply this game to any student. You just have to  choose the topic and start guessing the different letters that form missing word.

So... Ready, Steady, Go!!

Let's play together !

Click here and you will access to the game.

Enjoy it!!

Welcome! Here we go again........




Welcome to this blog for English learners, a small corner of the web to share exercises,
 language skills practice and news.Currently I'm teaching English to 12 and 13 year-olds
, so most of the content will be elementary-level-oriented but I have not discarded the idea
 of publishing entries related to intermediate and advanced English learning. Time will tell.

I hope you will find it useful.


Happiness is the main objective in our lives and music always helps us to feel better.
For this reason, I have decided to sing this song with my students from 1st and 2nd level of E.S.O.
The video I'm sharing today is something special for me. I think it's full of energy and it spreads it everywhere, don't you think so?
