ESL ELL EFL Learn English Grammar, Vocabulary, and Conversation Skills in Kahoot

Let's learn grammar and build vocabulary while playing three rounds of Kahoot! Language learners will receive short direct instruction about parts of speech, sentence types, prefixes, suffixes, and sentence structure. Then, they will play a short intense game of Kahoot! so they can practice applying what they learned. This course uses friendly competition to motivate learners to improve through creative and critical thinking about English. 

I will interact with students through brief introductions, direct instruction, question and answer practice, and the three rounds of Kahoot! Students can expect to talk with one another and with me throughout our 45-minute class. I will explain why the correct answers are correct and why the wrong answers are wrong.
