Spice up your lessons

If you want to give your lessons a touch of humour, here is an idea that has given me good results with my students. The idea is called Lateral Thinking and it basically means that we should think in an unorthodox way. Visit Paul Sloane's website. There you have some riddles with their solutions. I usually post them in my school's website (in a forum) and give the students a week to find the answers and comment possible solutions to the riddle. Then I post the solution. This usually interests them. You can also use them in your lessons straightaway. If you want to find more riddles of this kind, just type "lateral thinking" in Google.
Have fun!
