This
photocopiable book of jigsaws and group exercises is now available.
What could otherwise be a serious, individual or teacher-centred area
of content-based ESL is transformed into lively, interactive lessons
with this book.
Excellent
preparation for citizenship, Callan's Canada Jigsaws features jigsaws
on
the territories and all the provinces of Canada, as well as one jigsaw
on
each of the following: Canada's major cities, government, aboriginals
and
the Chinese in Canada. Group exercises, which follow the jigsaws,
include
tic tac toe games, password games, dictation games, cloze passages and
other
activities.
Students
will learn basic geographical information, as well as important facts
about the people and industries of Canada's provinces and territories,
in a fun and easy to remember format. Content focusses primarily on
information considered general knowledge by well-informed Canadians, as
well as a few surprising facts. All information has been verified
through various government agencies in the respective provinces and
territories.
