1. Life Skills
a- Team Work
Team work is an important life skill that can help us carry out projects at a large scale. Can you tell us about an experience where you were part of a team? How did you find it? Did you face any troubles? Do you think team work should be improved at schools in the Arab world? Let us know your opinion in the comments section below.
2. Listening
One way to improve your listening skills is watching the news or listening to the radio. You can do that at http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/video_and_audio/ or at http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/ .
Alternatively, you can listen to English songs. Nik's Learning Technology blog suggests http://www.lyricstraining.com/ where you find the lyrics with missing words that you fill in while listening. Here how it works:
Click on http://www.lyricstraining.com/ and choose a song. Click on 'select mode' to choose your level. The lyrics will appear under the screen. If you can't fill in the gaps, click on 'withdraw' and enjoy listening to the song and reading the lyrics.
I hope you will find these ideas helpful. Enjoy!
