Making Sense of Phrasal Verbs
Author: Martin Shovel
ISBN: 978-0952280804
UK Price 2009: £9.95
Why do students hate phrasal verbs? Usually because they see them as a never-ending list of words with multiple meanings. The way to this is to see phrasal verbs in REAL situations. This is particularly true of Making Sense of Phrasal Verbs, which is full of amusing cartoons that clearly illustrate the sequence of action in each phrasal verb. It has graded exercises with each unit and a useful reference section.

The Q Book
Author: Mario Rinvolucri & John Morgan
ISBN: 978-0952280873
UK Price 2009: £15.95
"The material consists of lesson plans suitable for students of English from post-beginner to advanced levels. Each section is organized according to topics, language or structure, level, and length of time and materials required. There is a wide selection of quizzes, questionnaires and games based on humanistic principles to encourage spontaneity and originality. The instructions are clear, and there are suggestions and follow-up work for each activity. The wide variety of appropriately-chosen topics gives the opportunity to develop interdisciplinary teaching as well, by involving sociology, psychology, politics, etc. Another great merit of the book is that the students are made to ask questions themselves, rather than to wait for a lead from the teacher. In fact the activities are so well organized that in most cases the teacher does not need to intervene in the work of the students. The positive role of group work is strongly confirmed. The authors give a number of variations, and suggest 'either . . . or' activities, encouraging the teacher not to view their suggestions once-and-for-always lesson plans."
