Communicative Language Activities

During my last presentation at the AMC, we engaged in an energetic and fun-filled discussion of the principles of communicative language teaching (CLT) and played some games that helped better exemplify the way that CLT is supposed to work! I can't speak for everyone, but I certainly learned a lot and had a good time doing it! I've linked the materials from the session below. We didn't have enough time to get through the majority of the activities, so please feel free to explore the links at your leisure. I hope you find something useful!
