Updated page: Create digital ESL resources for beginners
This updated page includes some free digital-friendly websites I use to create lessons for my beginner ESL students (CLB 1-4). These sites include vocabulary flashcards and other vocabulary activities, video and audio resources, games, free image sites, annotated maps and virtual tours, and AI activity creators. These tools have been useful in my beginner ESL classes.
