About EAL HUB

Everyone. A. Learner.

Your goal? To give the EAL pupils in your care the best start to learning English and continued support for those more advanced bilingual children. To support children in need of a literacy boost with high quality strategies and interventions.

Ours? To enable EAL and SEN learners to learn in the mainstream classroom as much as possible via structured support and differentiation.

When EAL Hub was developed, its primary focus was EAL children but, over the year, feedback has been very positive from many teachers for use with children with a wide range of additional literacy needs - browse the resources and see what you think!

A Translanguaging Pedagogy For Writing: A CUNY-NYSIEB Guide for Educators
This guide extends an invitation to teachers of all grade levels, and across disciplines and programs to examine how you currently instruct writing, and to try out innovative tools and practices with your emergent bilinguals. We situate ourselves within a long trajectory of writing educators and scholars, as well as offer a novel "language as a resource" perspective on the teaching of writing based on the CUNY-NYSIEB principles.

Translanguaging in Latino/a Literature: A CUNY-NYSIEB Guide for Educators: This guide offers analysis of language use in 32 works of Latino/a literature that are appropriate for Grades PreK-12, analyzing 17 books for grades PreK-6 and 15 books for grades 7-12. The analysis of each book includes lexile level, themes, author biography and website, a list of supplemental resources, a summary of the book, and an analysis of the way that the author uses translanguaging, the flexible use of linguistic resources, in literature.

The Languages of New York State: A CUNY-NYSIEB Guide for Educators: Learn more about the languages your students speak! This guide provides information about the top ten languages other than English spoken by emergent bilinguals. Descriptions include a brief history of the language, a few details about the cultures of the people who speak the language, and their experiences in New York State.

Each "story" provides a clear context for the featured vocabulary word, so readers easily understand how the word is used. The vocabulary is closely associated with the memorable details, making learning words almost as easy as laughing at a funny caption, reading about an unusual animal, or getting the scoop on a cool city.

Fantastic photographs. The images not only say "look at me," they match the meanings of the vocabulary they're paired with. Just looking at our pictures helps build familiarity with words. Visual learners have never had it so good!

Library News and Notes

June 2, 2021

Dear Readers,

Great news! I was able to rebuild a simple version of the in-browser book reader which has enabled me to add back all of the ICDL books. The interface is not what it used to be, and we no longer have translations of books (only the original language the book was published in) - but we have all ~4,000 books back. The site is fast and reliable and should be able to stay around for some time to come. Happy reading!

May 5, 2021

Dear Readers,

Good news! Thanks to the UMD Computer Science Department, which has agreed to host a static version of ICDL, we have been able to resuscitate the library a bit, and have brought back 1/4 of the books in PDF form (that we have "download" rights for). We had to create a vastly simpler site without many, many of the features - no search, no translations, etc. But about 1,000 of the books are back, and we will work on bringing back more books and at least some aspects of the original site. Please note that we do not have the right to allow you to redistribute these books further, and they are provided to you only for personal use.

Thank you for so many of your heart-warming and gracious emails which encouraged us to find a way to keep the ICDL alive.

April 19, 2021

Dear Readers,

It has been over 20 years since we launched the International Children's Digital Library. In that time, we have served about 15 million people reading over 1,000,000 hours of children's books. We launched at a time when the concept of reading books online was a bit odd, and almost unheard of for children's books. After all these years, as far we know, we are still the largest collection of freely available complete children's books from around the world. And we did that without ever exposing children to commercial activities or risking their privacy.

But for many years, we have served this mission without any funds. And now all of the founders have moved on to other things in their lives. The servers are very old and dusty and there is no one to maintain them. Our licenses for the books are for use only by the ICDL so while we have considered a number of alternatives, none of them really made sense.

And so now it is time to say goodbye and read with the innumerable other resources in the world. The ICDL has been our labor of love, and we will always remember these books, the volunteers, libraries, publishers, and readers around the world with great fondness.

Keep reading!

- Founders Ben Bederson, Allison Druin, Ann Weeks, Anne Rose and Tim Browne (in memoriam)

Welcome to MES English, Resources for Teachers of Young Learners. All of the resources are designed to be versatile and useful across a broad spectrum of ages and levels. This site hosts: , and other activities all ready for printing.

Flash Cards:

There are 2,000+ words depicted in flashcards. The vocabulary are provided in 100+ sets covering 60+ themes and I'm adding to them regularly. These are flashcards not clip art. Each flashcard set is ready to print and go with matching handouts, PowerPoint flashcard presentations, game cards and bingo cards. Plenty of cards for supplementing or designing your lesson plans.

Worksheets:

There are 2 options for MES Worksheets. You can create your own custom worksheets on Tools for Educators or you can use the ready-to-print worksheets here on MES English.

Tools for Educators is an MES site that hosts free, online worksheet applications and templates that let you make and print custom materials to suit your classroom. You can make spelling, reading, writing activities, crosswords, wordsearches, mazes and other classroom games using all of the images from MES.

Ready-to-Print Materials: A growing section of MES-English. There are talking worksheets, worksheets for introduction of grammar points, a phonics workbook series, award certificates, clipart to make your own worksheets, song sheets, nursery rhymes and chants cards, and vocabulary building worksheets to match the MES Flashcards.

Classroom Games:

There are 22 versatile, communicative games for the classroom available for printing and a list of 15+ other games to play. These games were designed to be flexible and useful across a broad range of target language and great care was put into making them fun, interesting and student centered. Many are great for one-on-one. You'll find Big Town, High Town, Eigomon, Bombs Away, Treasure Island, Spiders and Candy, Get Four, the Paper Game and more. The games were designed around the principle that if the game is just a grammar game, the students will bore quickly. Thus, the goals of these games are not "perfect English wins the game," but the students must communicate in the target language to accomplish their goal and win the game. In doing so you'll be surprised how many times they use the language and hopefully perfect/internalize it through repetition.

Phonics Resources:

MES has 2 options for phonics materials, MES Phonics and Fun Fonix.

MES Phonics has flash cards and handouts for presentation. There are alphabet cards, posters and materials to get you started on the right foot with your phonics curriculum.

Fun Fonix is a 6 part workbook series. The website also has worksheet makers you can use to create custom phonics worksheets and additional activities for your classroom needs.

Additional MES Resources:

MES English has quite a few other sections with materials or resources for English language teachers and LOTE teachers as well.

The MES Speaking First Curriculum is a curriculum designed to focus on speaking and fluency while building phonemic awareness and preparing students for study in a course book. It is a guide for the order and how to use all of the materials you can find through the MES sites.

The International Project Exchange: there are classroom projects that teachers can download, print the lesson plans, and print projects already completed by students from different countries around the world. Teachers complete the projects with their classes, and then share completed projects from around the world with their students.

MES Games is a website with online games for students to build vocabulary, practice listening, spelling, grammar and more!

123 Listening a website with many different audio downloads and many different worksheets that can be combined to make listening tests or listening exercises for various levels.

MES Teacher Forums: Check out the MES-English community, leave feedback, ask questions, find support for problems, get or leave game ideas, advice and more! There are forums for games and activities ideas and questions, forums for teaching where you can get or leave advice, a 'What's new?' forum, and additional sections with advice for teaching English to young learners.

MES Coloring Section has free printable coloring pages for holidays, alphabet activities, numbers, and other themes from the MES vocabulary flashcards.

What is MES English

MES-English.com is a site containing actual resources, made by myself to be downloaded and used today. This page is not a collection of links to resources, with links to resources, with a collection of links to resources ... (which frustrated me enormously and forced me to make everything myself.) I will try to keep it short, to the point, and help you find what you're looking for fast. You do not have to register but an e-mail letting me know something worked well, was helpful, or with suggestions would be great.

Happy teaching - Mark

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
There are a number of question types in English:

Yes-No Questions
Wh-Questions
Tag questions
Choice Questions
Hypothetical Questions
Embedded questions
Leading questions
Also See
Sentence Types
Wh-Questions Exercise

Yes / No questions

Most of them start with an auxiliary verb and expect an answer Yes or No.

Note: you can ask a yes / no question using the verb "to be" as a full verb (not an auxiliary) as well.

See Auxiliary Verbs

Are you from The United States?
Yes / No (Yes I am / No I am not)

Wh-Questions

As you can understand from its name, most of them start with a question word such as:

What / Where / Why / Who / Whose / When / Which

Note: there are other question words that don't start with "wh" as well.

How / how many / how often / how far / how much / how long / how old etc.

Examples:

See WH Questions / Exercise

Tag questions (disjunctive or tail questions)

They are mini-questions asked at the end of a statement to confirm it.

You love her, don't you?

She has seen it, hasn't she?

Nobody knew the answer, did they?

Let's go, shall we?

See Question Tags

Choice Questions

We use choice questions when we offer choices.

Choice questions

Answers

Would you like a house or a flat?

Do you go with your family or alone?

Are you a little nervous or excited?

A house, of course.

With my family.

A little nervous.

Hypothetical Questions

We ask hypothetical questions to have a general idea of a certain situation (like a questionnaire).
Examples
What would you do if you won the lottery?

Would you leave your country and your relatives behind to study abroad?

If you had a superpower, what would it be?

Embedded questions (indirect questions)

We use them in reported speech or in polite questions.

Examples:

She asked me if she could borrow my dictionary.
She asked me where the nearest train station was.
(not where was the nearest train station...)

Note: notice that the word order is affirmative.

Could you tell me how I can go to The Central Park?

See reported speech examples
See indirect speech grammar

Leading questions

We ask leading questions when we want to get the answer we desire.

Examples:

What do you think of the terrible side effects of drugs?

Were you with your family at the time of the crime?

Audio books

Audio books are a great way to enjoy and share literature. Project Gutenberg no longer adds new audio books to the collection, and suggests these audio book resources. These audio books are all freely available and in the public domain in the US. They may be easily played back on computers, tablets, mobile phones, and other devices. They may be shared non-commercially, without limitation except in countries where the printed source is still copyrighted. All of the sources listed below are digitizations of texts from Project Gutenberg.

Project Gutenberg's human-read audio books. 662 titles read by people, sometimes with sound effects or other enhancements. These are from a few different contributors.

Project Gutenberg's computer-generated audio books. 386 titles from 2003, using text-to-speech automation. These are listenable but relatively low quality compared to today's technology.

Human-read audio books from LibriVox. LibriVox is a volunteer community that produces high-quality performances that are done by many different volunteers. Follow the link to find audio books, and also to help create new audio books.

The Project Gutenberg Open Audiobook Collection. Almost 5,000 titles from 2023, via a Project Gutenberg collaboration with Microsoft and MIT.
