Anyhow, among the websites or pages I've came across perhaps these might help: http://englishbanana.com/talkalot/index.html Well, there are lots of free materials: printables, worksheets to download: http://www.englishbanana.com/downloads.html Or, what about this? http://bogglesworldesl.com/ Some days ago I came across that site, and I liked the flashcards a lot. But now, I see there are lots of good materials for teachers, also free: " You may use any resource, including photocopies, for the purpose of teaching and distribution to your classes". Well, I stop practicing English to the cousin of my daughter because he needs to reinforce his reading and math skills first, and it's a long way to go! And about my daughter, she doesn't do English activities unless I tell her and both her and my free time for her English is not much either :( Well, little by little, no hurries.
