Warm-up activities provide students with an opportunity to prepare for class by practicing the language skills they will need.

ESL warm-up activities can be used in small classes to help students prepare for the day. Activities vary in difficulty, so they can be tailored to the level of the class. Some activities can also be used to help students practice their reading and writing skills.

Many of the activities can be done in pairs or groups, which can help students know each other and build relationships. Some of the activities can also be used to practice cooperative learning.

The activities are listed in alphabetical order, but they can be organized in any way that makes them easier to use.
