Here's a lesson idea I came up the other day. I was trying to spice up a rather dry FCE coursebook reading on animal cheats so I decided to add a video to the mix. After figuring out these activities, I realised that I wasn't so much improving the reading activity as I was replacing it with a listening, so I changed direction and did something else.
But rather than waste all that hard work, I thought I'd share it with you here instead...
1) In groups, ask the students to list all the things they think of when they think of the word 'cheat'.
2) Put their answers on the board in a mind...
