Hi Ceci,
I´ve been surfing the net, looking for teacher´s development material (you know how interested I am in that) and I found this manual, which contains very useful tips for teachers. Perhaps you already know about this material, which you can find together with plenty of other resources on the British Council site www.britishcouncil.org . I strongly recommend the Games archive  as well as the Teaching Tips.
You can find very interesting articles. I´ve been reading something about Error Correction, which Vane told me is going to be the topic of our next Teacher´s meeting.
 
We are really lucky to count on this useful tool, the Internet. It can really make things much easier for us.
However, it is time-consuming and once you start you can´t stop (at least this is what happens to me)
 
Hope you find it useful
Regards
Daniela
