Warmer and Ice-breaker Activities

When teaching teenagers or adults, you need some warmer activities to make the class funny and interesting. However, finding these activities is hard, because you need to search trough books and ask some experts to provide some and may be not be enough. But this problem is no longer exists because of this website
http://www.onestopenglish.com/teenagers/skills/warmers/
It has many warmer activities which are useful and helpful for the teacher. I myself used many of the activities there and my students were understanding the lessons easily and they were thankful for it.
Another website that I enjoyed reading is
http://eltnotebook.blogspot.co.uk/2007/01/my-favourite-efl-classroom-warmers.html
It has some useful warmer and ice-breaker exercises which can be applied in the classroom to warm the students up. I found both websites interesting to read and apply. Also both websites are well organized, and recommend all my colleague teachers to visit and try to apply some of the exercises in their classrooms. Please leave your comment and feedback to be reviewed.

    1. For a warmer activity I used the Fruit and vegetables warmer activity. It was applied to intermediate level, which was really funny, and the answers were interesting and unexpected.
      For the ice-breaker I used true/ false questions, and the interaction among the students was very excited.
      Thank you for your comment.
