Book
Just joking : stories for listening and discussion / by Sandra Heyer.
A listening and discussion text for high-beginning learners of English. Each unit is centred on a joke - a humorous, illustrated story that concludes with a punchline. Ideal in a listening/speaking course but it can also be used in any class to motivate and relax learners and to add variety to lessons.
"This is a great resource. The stories are funny and use cross-cultural humour. The book is well organized with a set up, the story, review and topic for discussion for each story. I used this book with an ESL student. She enjoyed the stories and we had great discussions about them and the topics they introduced." – April 2012 Exemplary Literacy Materials Online Reviews.
"Great way to liven up a class and engage everyone. Well thought-out chapters, as they include all the skill areas and ensure learning with lots of practice. Highly recommended." – April 2012 Exemplary Literacy Materials Online Reviews.
"This book was funny. It was a little bit tricky. I like 'before listening' set up what will happen and also i like conversation part." – March 2012 Exemplary Literacy Materials Online Reviews.
