I teach English to elementary school students in Japan, and sometimes I need to schedule quieter classes that don't tax my voice so much. I want to make some worksheets on various themes, such as sports, or pets, or etc.
But, what I need to know is, what makes a worksheet really good? Are there any techniques I should know?
I would appreciate links to "how to make a good worksheet" kind of sites.
BTW, these are EFL worksheets -- most of the kids have extremely low levels, and I can't count on any class being able to actually read. So, pre-literate ideas would be extra-useful. Esp. if they could capture the interest of a 12-year-old.
Other ideas for teaching without using one's voice would also be useful.
(-: Packed a lot in there, didn't I? Sorry. Looking forward to your answers, though.
