While correcting my students' pieces of writing, I found many errors related to word order. So I began looking for material that helps students to understand the structure of sentences in English. 
This video provides clear explanations and examples of SVOMPT order. Students can watch the video and then be asked to put  some sentences in order.

Giving and getting feedback starts with being open to change. That means, being open to learn form other people's experiences and point of view, and also from our own weaknesses or mistakes. But the process of giving and receiving feedback can be quite difficult sometimes. Here is a video that provides useful ideas to make the process more constructive and successful.

Vowel sounds: /ai/ - /I/ - /e/ 
As an introduction to phonetics, students can watch and listen to this catchy video:

1) Ask students to pay attention to the pronunciation of the words PINEapple and PEN.
2) Show them the symbols for each vowel sound. They can think of other words containing the same vowel sounds.
3) Students can be provided with a list of words with different spellings. They can be asked to classify them according to their vowel sounds.
Examples of words with the vowel sound:
/ai/ : life - cry - style - crime - fine - my 
/I/ : live - sit - fit - ship - tip - kiss
/e/ : pet - bed - spell - spend - left 
Let's sing and dance with these vowel sounds!
