The best way to get to know the online activities is to play with them! Your pupils will show you how to do this! However, a few tips as to what to do in your first lessons will probably be welcome.

What to do in your first lesson is fully explained in the section called, unsurprisingly, Your First Lesson.

Following this, you will find below a mixture of links to blog articles, pdf guides for you (which you can print out and have to hand during the first few lessons), and copymasters for pupil reference.
