Video Lessons - EFL CLASSROOM 2.0

Video Lessons - EFL CLASSROOM 2.0
Here are my own top 10 video lessons on EFL Classroom 2.0. We have hundreds and find them through our Best Videos presentation, our video library, video + page or our award winning Lessons In A Can series.

1. George & Rosemary. Academy award winner and sensational story of true love.

2. Split Screen. Perfect for teaching beginning language about routines.

3. Make a P and J Sandwich. "How to" videos are excellent and provide sequential structure (steps) for student retelling.

4. The Big Snit. A student favorite animation and a perfect lesson for all students to ponder.

5. Man vs Nature. Another split screen video from the World Wildlife Fund showing 2 different worlds.
6. What is a moment? One of two Radiolab videos that are musts for video fans.

7. Words. 2nd Radiolab video for adv. students and focus is on collocations. Amazing!
8. Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Commercials with narratives are excellent for video retelling! None better than this one...

9. Did You Know..? A video that teaches a lot of interesting stuff besides language.

10. Forgotten. Haunting video great for teaching about places in the home.
