							| Potatoes and Their True Potential 
 |  
							| This is one of my favourite activities that I �ve ever come up with. I �ve been doing it for a year or so and recently jazzed it up a little bit.    It �s all about potatoes. I �ve noticed that this has gone down as the most memorable class a number of my students have ever had (with me at least)   It gets them thinking outside the box and you can really demand high with the language that is used in class.    Have a go. I �m sure you �re students will have a ball. Or a potato at the very least.   |  18 Feb 2016

							| Love it! I �ll use it in a couple of weeks time. That is just the style of lateral  thinking activity I like to use after I �ve pformally introduced the idea that they can think & use English in the same way they use their mother tongue! |  18 Feb 2016
