I used this project with my 9th grade students. I wanted them to practise some structures and vocabulary, as well as research on their favourite songs / singers. And we all know how much teenagers love music!
First I handed this guide out:

Thank you, Tânia! Great job!

THE FUTURE SIMPLE FOR ELEMENTARY STUDENTS - A PPT PRESENTATION
A ppt presentation for elementary students who study a Future Tense for the first time. Quite easy, straight to the point examples, with some explanations in Portuguese.
I used it after they studied a text with some sentences in the Future Simple. Well, they were more involved because, at this age (12 year olds!), they're strongly attracted to image. A lesson that worked well. I'm sharing it with you:

Rainforest Animals - A WEBQUEST for 7th grade students
Searching for information on the net about a topic is not as easy as it may seem, especially if you're an elementary student of English. Don't just ask them to use the net to research a topic. There's so much information about any topic, that they will feel lost. As a result, they will copy and paste the first thing they set their eyes on. Besides, there's the language barrier. Not every piece of information is adequate to their langauge level, so they won't understand what they read and will soon lose interest.
So try to make their search easier and adapt the language to their language level giving them clear instructions. An example of this is a WEBQUEST. If you don´t know what that is, visit this site:
So, here is a WEBQUEST on "RAINFOREST ANIMALS" I created for my 7th grade students.
It's their first webquest. I hope they're enjoying it!
