Games and other fun things to do

Here's one last post before we finish Spring semester.
1.
First is a website with ESL games to play. 
We'll try Falling Clouds in class. It's a grammar game - put the words in order.
The easy games are Fast Hand and SpeedBalls. They are both vocabulary games.
2. Next is a YouTube site with music for learning English. It has songs for children.
3.
This YouTube website has popular English-language songs with English lessons to help you learn.
4.
You can also listen to VOA's classic rock series. It is an interesting program about rock & roll music, but has no pictures. It is more difficult than the other websites listed here.
5.
STARFALL is the reading website we used earlier this semester. You can practice reading at this site. Choose the kind of reading you enjoy. Then listen to and read with the story.

Enjoy your summer, and practice using the computer. Good Luck.

Let's Use EXCEL 2010

Let's try a new lesson:

How to use:  EXCEL 2010 Tutorial for Beginners.
This video will show you how to make an Excel spreadsheet.

We'll also look at this EXCEL page and practice it in class.

EXCEL is difficult for me to use, but I'll do my best to show you.

This website gives vocabulary for EXCEL. We will learn some of the most important words used in this program. I'll also give you a vocabulary paper to practice.

I'll give all students our EXCEL practice papers this week. Learn the vocabulary and using EXCEL will be easier.

Here's some computer vocabulary practice - remember what you learned before. You can practice #1, #3, and #4 first. We'll try #2 (the crossword puzzle) in class this week.

This computer parts exercise is easy to use - click on the part and the computer word will appear.

This listening practice should be easy, after using EXCEL.

And don't forget to relax:           
 Battleship                                                   
 Four Seasons
 Chinese Matching Game
 Newspapers around the World

Here's a very useful dictionary. We'll learn how it works in class.
