Synopsis The Dice Book by : Kevin McCaughey

The Dice Book features 112 photocopiable activities using "dice frames" - six prompts for saying something and reacting in small groups. It's simple, fast, and easy to do! There are three main types of frames: open-ended speaking, grammar, and vocabulary. The advantages of Dice Frames" are: 1) Maximizing practice: When students play in small groups, taking turns, they generate lots of speaking practice; 2) Scaffolding: Students know how to respond after rolling their dice, because each dice frame supplies a structure, model, prompt or example--often all of these; 3) Personal interest: The frames guide students to speak about themselves, to express opinions, to recall experiences, or to be creative; 4) No preparation: Teachers need virtually no preparation for these student-centered games. All teachers need to do is find a dice frame that fits the lesson, or choose one at random as a warm-up; 5) Short activities: Dice games typically take five to fifteen minutes of class time. Teachers can insert a quick-hitting dice game into every lesson or two. Their brevity and flexibility are great strengths of the game; and 6) A student-centered approach: With The Dice Book, teachers can relax and take an interest in what students have to say, assessing student performance, altering the content when necessary, and bringing the activity to an end when it loses steam.

Synopsis Politics and the English Language by : George Orwell

George Orwell set out ‘to make political writing into an art’, and to a wide extent this aim shaped the future of English literature – his descriptions of authoritarian regimes helped to form a new vocabulary that is fundamental to understanding totalitarianism. While 1984 and Animal Farm are amongst the most popular classic novels in the English language, this new series of Orwell’s essays seeks to bring a wider selection of his writing on politics and literature to a new readership. In Politics and the English Language, the second in the Orwell’s Essays series, Orwell takes aim at the language used in politics, which, he says, ‘is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind’. In an age where the language used in politics is constantly under the microscope, Orwell’s Politics and the English Language is just as relevant today, and gives the reader a vital understanding of the tactics at play. 'A writer who can – and must – be rediscovered with every age.' — Irish Times
