Last month I shared some ideas on simple and easy warm-up activities, so today I want to talk about cool-down activities that are great to finish your class properly.

I decided to share my ideas on creative use of various simple materials you usually have at hand, as that's how you can easily come up with an extra activity without carrying tons of materials. Last month I wrote about some simple ideas on using toilet paper, and today I want to share my ideas on using a casual, everyday scarf to bring in some extra fun to your classroom.

I don't usually buy extra teaching tools, but once in a while my willpower proves to be particularly weak. Of course, it requires something extraordinary, but when I saw conversation cards created by Ewa Torebko, I simply knew I would love them. And, of course, I do - that's why I want to share some ideas on how to use them in your classroom.

The days are getting longer and warmer and more and more difficult to focus on the lesson, especially if you're still working online. Fortunately, we can take our students to a proper museum. And the best thing: we can do this for free!
