This is a practical guide for practising teachers of English and teachers in training. It offers teachers a rationale and a variety of imaginative techniques for integrating literature work with language teaching. It is divided into three sections: Part I discusses the questions: Why teach literature? What should we teach? How should we teach it?; Part II outlines and illustrates a wealth of student-centred class and homework activities appropriate to each stage of the study of a literary work. Detailed descriptions of the activities are accompanied by numerous sample worksheets; Part III demonstrates techniques for working with complete texts, and shows how the activities outlined in Part II can be applied to particular novels, plays, short stories and poems. All activities described have been used successfully with a wide range of classes from intermediate level up.

A collection of powerful, unabridged stories, accompanied by activities for creative language classrooms. Short Stories contains eleven memorable short stories written by a wide variety of authors between the nineteenth century and the present day. Aimed at upper-intermediate and advanced level students, the book offers: * creative activities before and after reading to stimulate reading and fluency skills; * a 'Creative Development' section at the end of each unit to extend the themes and the reader's involvement with the story; * notes on the authors and stories, and teacher's notes on using the material. This is paperback only. An accompanying Audio CD with complete audio recordings for each story is also available.
