Subject: Task 15

I've visited the site http://www.yourdictionary.com/ and I think it is very interesting. Besides providing the meaning of the words, it also makes cross languages translations. But what I liked the most about it, is the possibility to hear to the words we are looking for, instead of just reading their phonetic transcriptions. In short, it is a complete online dictionary.

In the site http://www.pdictionary.com/ you can find some pictures divided into categories. The drawings are nice and clear, but unfortunaly, there aren't many of them. Anyway, they can be helpful when looking for specific drawings to put in an exercise or test for instance.

I loved the http://www.funbrain.com/ website. I teach children, so I'm sure it will help me a lot. It has many games and you can even create you own quiz (it's a 30 free trial). The site was designed for children in general, not only for EFL children, so not all the activities may be suitable for Brazilian kids.

The site http://www.english-to-go.com/ is a good place both for teachers and students. There you can find ready to use lessons plans, that saves us, teachers, time from trying to be creative all the time (though we should always adopt a critical position towards the activities we give to our students).

One site I believe to be very useful for EFL teachers is http://a4esl.org/ There you can find many online grammar and vocabulary activities to be done with students, such as quizzes and crosswords. They are divided by levels or categories, from the basic alphabet to medical terms quizzes.
