This a useful website for teaching English to young learners. Our evaluation of this website is based on Sheldon' schedule. We recommend to use it for the following reasons:
1) It promotes students' autonomy how?
2) English Language is taught inductively, through quizzes, games... could you give some examples?
3) Printable activities and worksheets
4) Printable visual aids
5) A wide number of topics that appeals to young learners
6) It involves three language skills: reading, writing and listening
7) A brief exlanation of the objective before every activity
8) Supports teaching in classroom can you explain this a bit more?
9) User friendly how do you know? Did you take a long/short time to be able to use it? What instrcutions would you have to give to children?
10) Easy access
11) Contact for future reference
12) Lots of animation/colourful
13) Clearly organized This could be visually organised (why is this important?) but also the technical demands of using a website?
However, it is important to note that there are some limitations:
1) Users do not have the chance to evaluate or comment upon using it
2) Its only a supplementary source for the teachers
*comments from Ruby - thanks for the list and the ideas; my feeling is that I would understand your comments better if you gave examples and show us how you reach these conclusions
