Refuse to Be a Boring Teacher!In a generation,where an average attention span only lastsfrom 10-15 minutes. It is very crucial for any teacher to capture the attention of students and make them fully engaged in class. That’s why this book, “100 TESOL Activities for Teachers”, comes in handy. Shane Dixon’s book is filled with practical tips and strategies for Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL).It is intended to provide teachers with perspective to some of the most common TESOLtechniques and strategies recognized and used in the field. Most of which can be used with both younger and adult learners and in a variety of different contexts. The variation of activities and tips allows teachers to choose which ones they feel most comfortable using and which ones are most appropriate for their students’ needs and proficiency level. One of the mostinteresting aspects of this book is how the author generously included printable worksheets which demonstrate realizations of activities described in the book. Teachers are also free to download and use itin their class. The book is organized into 3 distinct parts. The first section introduces the top 10 common TESOL activities such as: information gap, classic Jigsaw, Cloze passage exercise, journals, dictation, Modified TPR (Total Physical Response), Think-Pair-Square-Share, Talking Tokens,Read Aloud or Reading Circles and Turn ANYTHING into an English Activity. What follows are subsections categorized according to the “four macro skills” reading, writing,listening and speaking. In this part, she provided varied activities specific to the skill a teacher would want to develop on that day in his/her class.She also included some icebreaker activities which are good for opening of classes, where students donot know one another yet
