This lively collection of over 100 classroom activities allows teachers to exploit the language learning potential of extensive reading. The activities, contributed by teachers who have used them successfully in classrooms all over the world, introduce extensive reading to the students and link it with the rest of the language curriculum. The book contains a wealth of ideas for encouraging students to read and for using students' reading experiences for further language practice and learning. These creative and enjoyable speaking, listening, role-playing, reading, writing, and vocabulary activities are suitable for students of all ages and levels. Each activity is clearly explained, and presented together with a personal note from its author. This is a handbook for teachers of general language courses, as well as grammar, listening, speaking, reading, and writing courses. It is written for teachers who are both non-native and native speakers of English and is suitable for novice and experienced teachers. It will also be of interest to teacher educators.
