EMBRACING DIFFERENCESMIXED-ABILITYCLASSES
Slow and steady might win the race, but some students still learn as fast as jackrabbits. In order to giveall our students a chance in class, it is vital to take into account their differences and plan accordingly.Part of the art of teaching mixed-ability classes is using the students strengths and weaknesses tocomplement each other. In this workshop, we will be showing you different types of lessons and activitiesyou can use to achieve this.
THE SOUNDS OF ENGLISHPHONOLOGY
Phonology is the study of how sound is structured in languages, such as what speech-soundsa language uses to build its words and how it builds its syllables. The mission of this workshop is tounderstand how speech-sounds and phonetic features are organized to create contrasts that allow thecreation of different words words which symbolize the thousands of concepts that make up our mentalworld.

GETTING REALTHEINTEGRATEDSKILLSAPPROACH
The Integrated Skills Approach exposes English language learners to authentic speech and challengesthem to use it to interact naturally. In real life, the language skills of listening, speaking, reading andwriting are generally integrated rather than occurring in isolation. Often the use of one skill leadsnaturally to another we read a novel or watch a lm and talk about it later. English becomes a realmeans of interaction and sharing. With this workshop, we will help students learn to use a language ina natural, real-world way.
THE ODD COUPLECRITICALVS. CREATIVETHINKING
What is Critical Thinking? What is Creative Thinking? How can we integrate them in a daily lesson?Creating the balance between the process we use to reect and the process we use to develop ideas canbe very helpful to develop language skills in a meaningful form. In this workshop, we learn how to fostera healthy mix of both in our classroom.

READING FOR GRAMMARINCORPORATINGGRAMMARINTOREADING
Grammar is the mathematics of literature and composition. It can be an important interpretation tool foryoung readers, helping weak readers see through the fog and strong readers to understand how they see.
Teachers can use grammar to show patterns, present new vocabulary, practice and reinforce structures, andmany other things. In this workshop, we will learn how to incorporate grammar into reading, making whatcan be a highly theoretical subject more understandable and real.
SPEAKING UPDEVELOPINGORALFLUENCY
Speaking is one of the most difficult language skills to develop. Teaching students to become orally uentcan be a complicated experience for the teacher; if oral activities are not carefully planned and carried out,we can lose class control or waste long periods of time. In this workshop we will put into practice severalideas and techniques to develop oral uency effectively in the ELTclassroom.
