TitleRecommended Site for FLT Resources

Have you seen the site http://www.getmetalking.com ?

This site is great for foreign language teachers. The person who put this together is a retired German and Spanish teacher, I believe. She has an interesting concept in that you pay for a year's subscription and can download as many flashcard sets as you need. Plus you can print off as many sets as your need for your class for the same price. For flashcards, this is a better deal than places like Teacher's Discovery where you have to pay per set.

The flashcards are arranged by themes, and the pictures on them are good. I bought and downloaded a set of classroom signs. The download was easy. Each set has 20 expressions, with wonderful clip art. I printed them out at school on the color laser printer and they look beautiful. I haven't decided if I want to just put one up a week as a target phrase of the week or if I want to hang several of them at once. One of the things I really found convenient with these signs, is that I can print each sign individually.
