Smile How to teach grammar for a beginners ESL class

Hello,

I teach a low beginners and intermediate classes for a non-profit Chinese organization. All of my students are Chinese adults and part of my curriculum is to teach grammar. One of the difficulties I have is explaining grammar in a way that's simple and fun. I am not sure how to use the grammar in an interactive manner where students can practice it effectively. Can anyone suggest how I can make grammar fun and interactive? My low level students are eager to speak and any work we do, I try to make it where students talk to each other. Do you know of any books I can use to assist me in conversation practice with students using grammar, especially for intermediate level students?

I am happy to be apart of this forum and look forward to meeting other ESL teachers Thank you, Dara
