Advantages: Easy to understand and deliver. FUN Disadvantages: none - it's great!
An EXCELLENT "couldn't live without it" resource.
Once in a while a teaching resource comes along that it so amazingly indispensible that you just have to tell the world about it. This book is one of them.
I bought this to use with a mixed age class of Y5 and Y6 pupils at the beginning of the academic year 2007-2008. Admittedly, i didn't know exactly what i was buying (it was an Amazon - buy these two for £X deal), however given the author i suspected ... ...wrong.
It wasn't just quite useful - it was amazing! The activities range from modern twists on old-fashioned consequences through to film based drama activities. It even has suggested activities for use when working on poetry.
Each activity is clearly explained, easy to deliver and most importantly fun and engaging.
Most activites are short and can easily fit into a morning registration period. I put some on the board as an early morning starter ...
