FUN WARM UP ACTIVITIES AND TIME FILLERS

ESL warm-up activities are essential in the English classroom. Students may be tired or have other things on their minds and diving straight into a textbook or grammar explanation can be quite jarring. With a good warmer you can put your students into English mode; attentive,  interested and ready to participate. A warmer can also serve to review language from a previous lesson or prime the class for a new topic.
