Another Sunshine Award!
I got another Sunshine Award, this time it's from Marga Alfonso Thanks!
The Sunshine Award is an award given to bloggers by other bloggers. It
is given to "bloggers who are positive and creatively inspire others in
the blogosphere". I do feel honoured that such great blogger has given
me this thoughtful award.
As with other similar awards, there are certain rules that must be followed:
Rule 1. Post the Sunshine Award logo on your blog.
Rule 2. Nominate 5 to 10 other wonderful bloggers.
Rule 3. Announce their nomination in their blog’s comment section.
Rule 4 .Mention links back to their blog, including a link to the person who nominated you.
Rule 5. Answer seven questions about yourself. This is designed to help people get to know you better.
There are lots of great bloggers and choosing just a few is difficult... Here are a few good ones in no particular order:
Marga Alfonso is a great English teacher with a blog full of resources and activities for teaching and learning English.
David Mainwood's blog The EFL Smart Blog (EFL, ESL and ESOL learning and practice activities for smart students of English) is a great source for teachers and students of English.
Richard Byrne (with his amazing blog Free Technology for Teachers) helps teachers everywhere to understand and use technology in education.
Lisa Dabbs Teaching with Soul (Inspiring, Mentoring, Equipping Teachers) an amazing, positive and inspiring person who really deserves this Sunshine Award.
Sean Banville's blog is full of links to Sean's resources, really useful for teachers.
For more information about me, the Sunshine Award and some more great bloggers, see my previous post:
