013 : The circle of Academic Life

I've been pretty busy lately with courseworks. Here's a lighthearted illustration that made me smile while browsing on the Net today.

I got it from here.

Hope it made you smile too. :)

009 : funny education-related poetry

If you want to have a 'light' lesson, you may want a 'text' for an activity that can keep the students awake AND interested. A site worth checking is Poetry Teachers. They have a nice assortment of poetry that are quirky, fun and exploitable (in the sense that you can try to create lessons around them, eg. grammar), like this.

It's a cute site worth looking at, even if you don't have teaching intentions in mind :)

004 : fun with tongue twisters

I love tongue twisters! Although the words in them are usually easy to understand, they totally mess up your head! It's simple fun to get out of a bored state of mind or to freshen up sleepiness. Plus, it's good for fluency practice as well! If it doesn't, at least the students and you will be amused :)

Here's a site I found that's pretty cool for this, check it out:
