"Four Language Skills Outside the Box: Activities for Improving Speaking, Reading, Writing, and Listening"

Speaking, reading, writing, listening. How can we creatively adapt our teaching methods, materials, and lesson content to promote one or more of these skills?

In five minutes, each presenter will have an opportunity to share effective and efficient teaching strategies and quick tips for managing different language levels in the classroom through a classroom activity which they have developed.
