TABOOS AND ISSUES is the latest in the series of photocopiable Teachers` Resource Books. It covers many serious issues which are usually, and quite reasonably, considered unsuitable for inclusion in general coursebooks. It provides the opportunity for adults to discuss controversial issues. Contains 40 twopage units of discussion, reading, and role play material. The lessons are designed as stimulating twopage spreads which teachers can dip into from time to time. This book is an antidote to the bland discussion materials in most general coursebooks. Topics include: death, swearing, gay rights, animal rights, sex, personal hygiene, racism, nudity, etc.
This is a practical guide for practising teachers of English and teachers in training. It offers teachers a rationale and a variety of imaginative techniques for integrating literature work with language teaching. It is divided into three sections: Part I discusses the questions: Why teach literature? What should we teach? How should we teach it?. Part II outlines and illustrates a wealth of studentcentred class and homework activities appropriate to each stage of the study of a literary work. Detailed descriptions of the activities are accompanied by numerous sample worksheets. Part III demonstrates techniques for working with complete texts, and shows how the activities outlined in Part II can be applied to particular novels, plays, short stories and poems. All activities described have been used successfully with a wide range of classes from intermediate level up.
