Happy 2014 to all my GEPIK friends...and of course to everyone! I hope the holidays are bringing you joyful experiences and lots of time to rest. The second half of 2013 found me very busy as I was trying to overcome a loss in my family. Sorry for not keeping this site up to date, but I really do have things to upload which I will do during this staggered vacation. (the schedule is staggered, not me because I'm having too much fun...!) I also want to dedicate a separate page for other teachers' contributions since I've received some great activities; let me know what you think. Take care, stay warm, and be safe!

Happy Summer, fellow teachers! As many of you are beginning your vacations, I am in the middle of my English Camp. Why? Because I took my vacation time early to attend a wedding, my high school reunion plus a family reunion in the States. Did I want to come back? What do you think??? But, I am happy to see my students again.

Got a few games I'm prepping to upload over the next several weeks, so sorry for the delay. If any of you are using the games featured here on this site, please let me know how your students liked them. (or didn't like them so I can make some refinements!) As always, happy teaching, and it's good to be back. ('cept for this weather...)

Is it already July next week? I hope everyone is staying cool and has their summer camp ideas ready. As promised, I finally put together the first (of hopefully many...several...a few??) of a series of tutorials for enhancing PowerPoint presentations to save our students (and ourselves!) from monotony. Your feedback is appreciated as I want to continue preparing ideas and tips that are as clear and concise as possible. Download and read today from the Ideas and Resources page; it's not too late to put your favorite "fart" sounds into your summer camp materials!
