🎉 2024: A Year in Review 🎉

As we prepare to wrap up the year and head into a well-deserved holiday break, we want to take a moment to reflect and say thank you.

To our incredible authors, editors, designers, and in-house production team (Eva Lettenmayer and Andreas Drabarek to name a couple) your creativity and dedication have fueled another year of exciting releases. 💫

We’d like to give a special thanks to Sandy Millin who has stepped down as Series Editor for the Teacher Development Series. She has handed it over to Riccardo Chiappini, author of Build up to IELTS and Activities for Mediation, the ELTons 2022 Innovation in Teachers Resources Award winner. Riccardo’s doing a great job on his first title which will be ready for the IATEFL Conference in Edinburgh in April.

And a very well done to Rachael Harris and her Ideas in Action title, Activities for Developing Learning Strategies for making it to the finals of this year’s ELTons awards in the same category. We’re delighted to see that it’s not just us who think our books are great!

📚 Here are all the titles that came out this year. Check them out on our website!

🎁HOW CAN I MAKE THE HOLIDAYS MORE SUSTAINABLE?

We asked Harry Waters, the author of our newest teacher resource book, Activities for a Greener Mindset, to share some ways we can have a greener holiday season.

💡We will post a new idea each day this week to provide you with some inspiration and spark some creativity.

5. Food Waste

৹ We all love to go wildly over the top with the excuse of “It’s Christmas” but while we can still indulge our insatiable gluttony for endless food. We can also control ourselves. The amount of food waste at Christmas is off the charts. Try to plan your meals properly, don’t over cater.

৹ If you have any meat leftover, why not use it to make something new? Try and get creative with some new recipes. It’ll save you getting bored and throwing them in the bin!

৹ Ask your students to bring in their favourite recipe as their holiday homework, rather than 5 grammar worksheets.

4. Wrapping

৹ You could wrap all the way to the moon with the paper used in the UK every Christmas. That’s a lot of trees.

৹ Why not think of an alternative way to wrap presents, an old tote bag, perhaps a sheet that you haven’t used in 6 years but for some reason still have it in your bed clothes box, you know, just in case you use the other 7 sheets you have and there is a sheet emergency.

3. Pre-Loved Gifts

৹ Give someone a book you’ve read that you love. Perhaps someone liked a dress you used to wear. That extra convection oven you were given when you moved in isn’t doing any cooking at the moment, nor has it ever left its box.

৹ Giving these gifts not only reduces your impact on the planet, it also saves money and shows people that you’ve really thought about their gift. Rather than jumping online the day before and buying them another picture frame, or cookbook they’ll never look at.

৹ You can also add a nice little handwritten note. It’s not that common anymore!

2. €0 Secret Santa (Classroom Edition)

Rules:
৹ Each student finds or makes a gift costing absolutely nothing.
৹ Encourage creativity: items can be handmade, upcycled, or something they already own but no longer need.

Examples:
৹ A bookmark crafted from recycled materials.
৹ A kind letter or a “coupon” for a helpful act, like “I’ll tidy your desk!”
৹ A small plant cutting or handmade ornament.
৹ A favourite recipe handwritten on decorated paper.

1. Gift experiences

৹ Giving someone a toy they want, or the t-shirt they saw the other day will provide instant gratification. The toy will be played with for 7 minutes, the t-shirt worn twice, and then shoved at the bottom of a drawer until it’s finally sent off to a charity shop.

৹ Gifting an experience is something that will live with people forever. The memory of a brand-new toy truck will fade, that time they went to see a musical, a concert, a sports game, a dinner out, a massage, etc., won’t.

Mark your calendars for the next FREE online seminar!

In this webinar, we’ll be taking examples from DELTA Publishing’s Business Impact course and a selection of our teacher development titles to support learners from making small talk with an English-speaking guest or taking an unexpected phone call in English. Our job is to prepare learners to interact successfully outside the classroom using topics they are interested in, motivating activities and plenty of encouragement. We’ll also look at ways we can deal with language errors, discussing which mistakes to correct and when to do so.

🫸This week is anti-bullying week.🛑

📣Take action against bullying: We want to wrap up by sharing an activity and tool from our newest title, Activities for Social-Emotional Learning, which was released this week.

💡Dealing effectively with bullying takes some social-emotional skill. This activity provides an opportunity to consider the effect of undesired behavior on others and encourages students to consider both the desired and undesired consequences of a decision and/or action to come to the best possible outcome for all involved.

This activity is ideal for teenagers (A2-B1).

How do you encourage your students to get involved or take action against bullying?

🏆Our last stop on the British Council hashtag awards trip won't be looking to the past but rather the future.

This year, Ideas in Action: Activities for Developing Learning Strategies,
Establishing learning techniques in the ELT classroom, is a FINALIST!

🤞We are keeping our fingers tightly crossed for Rachael Harris!

Why we think this book made shortlist for the hashtag 2024 Award for Innovation in Teaching Resources.

1️⃣ This book goes beyond the language classroom. It fosters learner autonomy and, through its inclusive nature, helps teachers provide all students with the tools and inspiration to learn effectively – for language learning and for life.
2️⃣ It’s really easy to use and understand. This title successfully bridges the gap between research and practice and is written in an unassuming style that is accessible and usable for all teachers.
3️⃣ Language learning strategies have been in and out of fashion over the years. This book argues the case for taking the time to introduce them, and then giving each learner the choice and the chance to learn in a way that best suits them.

Features:
🖊️An inspiring bank of micro-strategies, including reflection tasks and questionnaires.
🖊️A bank of ideas and activities to help you successfully integrate developing learning strategies into your language class throughout the year.
🖊️A selection of activities with photocopiable / downloadable / projectable worksheets that can be adapted to your own teaching situations.

💡Something to try
There are activities for the different stages of the academic year. From setting up routines and learning goals at the start of the year, to revision both throughout the year and immediately before exams. 7c Write the text: is a low preparation revision activity with a two-fold benefit for your students; firstly, by writing a series of questions, they need to reflect on what they’ve learnt and how it can be used. Then, when they swap with another student, they will need to recall the information required to answer the questions.

📖In summary:
Providing all our students with the tools and inspiration to learn effectively is the greatest gift teachers can give – for language learning and for life. The book both offers learning strategies and provides activities to help develop them.
