If you want to add some humour to your teaching buy this book5
I love this book! It's full of activities for all levels and arranged to cater for all the language skills (listening, reading, writing and speaking). Poems and stories are along jokes, wisecrackers and funny role-plays so there should be something to satisfy every learner. A lot of the activieties are built on authentic English language and can be used as a starting point for language analysis, too. All in all an excellent book that should help to motivate and entertain students and teachers alike. Well done!
