Introduction to “The Language Menu”
project

“The Language Menu” is an educational project from Learnwell Oy which provides teachers and
students across the world FREE resources and ready-made exercises to be used in classes, along
with the much needed tools to create original and personalized materials. Teachers seeking to use
web-based activities in their classroom and students who seek material for independent study will
find a common space on The Language Menu website.

The worksheets in this “Spring and Easter material package” have been created using the tools,
vocabulary and clip-art available on our website.

At the moment the website offers 35 languages, which in the next few months will be increased to
over 50. This will enable you to make bilingual material in more than 2380 language combinations.
Our collection of online tools, currently numbering over 17 , is also expanding over the following
months.

The Language Menu is a free site to all to make language education easier, more accessible and
more fun. Let us know if you have any requests and feel free to share your opinions with us. We
take your opinions seriously and we are always open to new ideas!

Here are some of the tools used to create this Spring and Easter material package.
You can click on the name of the tool to go to our webpage and create your own
material:

BINGO BOARD GENERATOR TOOL

This game is played like bingo, but pictures are used instead of numbers. Print out a page for each
of your students. Each student will also need a dozen of small pins to mark their board. Someone
(the teacher or a student) picks cards from the deck , and if a student has that picture on his board,
he covers it . The winner is the first person to cover all pictures in a row (horizontal, vertical or
diagonal). The winner calls out “Bingo!” Print out all the cards and as many sheets as there are
people playing.

CROSSWORD MAKER

Print out as many copies of the crossword as you need, along with an automatic answer sheet
(that the teacher can use). Students love crosswords and you can use this worksheet for lesson-
enhancing activities.

FLASHCARD AND DOMINO GENERATOR

You can create a general set of flashcards for general use in the class, or you can create a set for
every student. You can put the flashcards in a hat and ask the students to pick one. You may ask
them to make a sentence with the word, to act out the word or to write down a definition. You can
play “I have/who has” using pictures and words, or words and definitions.

FRAMEWORK GENERATOR

Print out as many copies of the framework as you need, along with an automatic answer sheet
(that the teacher can use). You can use this worksheet for lesson-enhancing activities.

MATCHING EXERCISE GENERATOR

Print out as many copies of the label the pictures worksheet as you need. You can use this worksheet
for vocabulary practice, or to introduce a grammar activity (give the plural of the words, etc.)
MISSING WORDS GENERATOR

This tool allows you to create text with blanks inserted for missing words. Your students can
then fill in the missing words by referring to a list of word clues. Print out as many copies of the
worksheet as you need. This exercise can be done individually or as a whole class activity to review
a text already studied or to introduce a new lesson.

LABEL THE PICTURES GENERATOR

Print out as many copies of the label the pictures worksheet as you need. You can use this worksheet
for vocabulary practice, or to introduce a grammar activity (give the plural of the words, etc.

“The Language Menu” project has been funded by:

Swedish Cultural Foundation in Finland

Finnish-Danish Cultural Foundation
Finnish-Norwegian Cultural Foundation

Swedish National Association of the Deaf which gave us the use of their pictures of
the Swedish sign language alphabet for our ClipArt gallery
