John and Sarah´s Comments
Ian the author, sent us a sample copy of his book and tape. Here are our comments.
The book comes with a tape containing 17 songs with photocopiable cloze exercises to accompany each song. The tape is good in its own right and contains the original versions of various artists eg. the Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, The Monkeys, Diana Ross etc. The tape is the best thing but there are also several ready to use games and ideas to use in your class. These include interactive crosswords and several games.
This book and tape set would be a welcome addition to any English
teacher's bookshelf.
The book comes with two free sweets !!!!!
