Some useful tools which have been shared by Nik Peachey and which are really worth sharing:

learning English can be very demanding but thanks to modern technology listening and understanding  videos in English can become more engaging.

Skype in the Classroom

During the spring time I had the opportunity of learning more about some
apps which can enhance our teaching  in particular in using  English and working on projects.

Skype is used in many projects and for  connecting classes and  teachers. Some interesting  projects like  eTwinning have been successful thanks to the tool.

I have never used it with my classes as we do not  have good internet  connections but we might start using  Skype or a similar  tool to connect with the other  classes.
What is required is  good interaction among the teachers who need to work as a team to coordinate activities online with other classes.
