Something is horribly wrong with the way things are arranged around here. I was designed to rise at the civilised hour of ten ay em. (Eleven, sometimes.) It is the way things are Meant To Be, and this has been perfectly obvious to me since I was a small child. If I was meant to get up at sparrowfart I WOULD HAVE BEEN BORN A SODDING SPARROW, ALL RIGHT?
AND WHAT DO YOU MEAN I HAVE TO DO IT AGAIN TOMORROW?

Links for language teachers
I have noticed that I get a lot of hits from people searching "present simple" and "ESL," and assume that this is language teachers looking for ideas or lesson plans. The following links are good places to start.
ESL Lounge Here you will find lesson plans organised by level. A fantastically useful site for busy teachers, and easy to navigate.
British Council Here lesson plans are organized by topic. There are more teaching activities in the 'downloads' section.
The Internet TESL Journal
They have not updated this page for a while, but there is still a lot you might find useful.
Humanising Language Teaching
This is an online journal, good for ideas, inspiration, and especially good towards the end of semester when you're feeling not quite human.
Dave's ESL Cafe
Almost too much to wade through, but a very useful resource. Lots of links to other sources.
Karin's ESL PartyLand
This is a page specifically dealing with teaching simple present and present progressive. I have not tried any of these, but there are a lot of ideas here, and they look good. At the very least you will be inspired.
Good luck!
