{"product_id":"laughing-matters-peter-medgyes-9780521799607","title":"Laughing Matters: Humour in the Language Classroom","description":"The book provides over 120 activities which will inject some light-hearted fun into lessons whilst still being grounded in respected language learning theory. Jokes provide teachers with a rich resource of patterned language use and cultural knowledge. Using humour in the classroom is also a very effective way to help students remember key concepts and structures. This book provides teachers with useful background information on humour. There is also step-by-step guidance on how to carry out the activities in the classroom and suggestions for further work. Laughing Matters will be of particular interest to teachers who are nonnative speakers and may appreciate some confidence building before using humour in the language classroom.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Medgyes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521799600\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521799607\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/29\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.94lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.16w x 0.68d","brand":"Peter Medgyes","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46216957296895,"sku":"9780521799607","price":57.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_312df070-b57a-4d39-a7c9-e509880d28b1.jpg?v=1728513859","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/laughing-matters-peter-medgyes-9780521799607","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
