Today's Assignments

Some of this semester's activities were from my website, and others were from other websites. There are many different ways to find ESL activities on the Internet. My website has a Links page. Click on Lauri's ESL Website on the links bar, and then click on Links on the left side of the page. Click on some of the links and see if you can find some interesting information or activities. You can also do an Internet search using a search engine. The search engine I use is Google. Click on the link, type some words in the search box, click Google Search and you will get a list of links. Click on the links to see the different websites. You can choose the words to search for, for example, ESL, ESL Listening, ESL Grammar Tests, ESL Reading, ESL Activities, etc. You can also do any activities you missed this semester, or go to the Extra Activities
