Default writing and oral activities

Hi everybody!

In my school we are trying to write a syllabus and I'm looking for activities to do with students (10 - 13 years old) to improve their oral and written productions.

May anyone help?
Thanks a lot,
arimun

You might find some of the communication activities on this site useful as well - they aren't specifically aimed at kids but lots of them work well with young learners:
ELTgames.com

(I used to live in Lecce! How's Cafe Alvino now? I hear they changed the sign!)

Yes, thanks there are plenty of useful games to use in classroom.

As far as Caffe Alvino, it looks much better now and I hope it will be cleaner too. They are going to restyle all Piazza Santo Oronzo...

How strange! I answered the message, but can't find it.

Anyway, the site with games is fantastic! Very useful.

As far as Caffè Alvino, it is all renewed. It looks much better, clean and elegant. If you want, have a look here: :: Caffè Alvino :: Lecce
I know they are going to renew all Piazza Santo Oronzo...

bye

Hope this time I can find my message!!

Thanks for the site Clare James: there are plenty of good ideas.

As far as Caffè Alvino, it is very neat and elegant now.. and "pasticiotti" are better than ever.

Arimun, when people who have just joined post links, theposts don't appear directly on the site but have to be approved by a moderator. This is to stop spam. When you have posted 10 times, it will stop.
