Your idea is really interesting and I think it would be highly appreciated.

Hi,
I �ve seen this before it �s really funny and students have a good time at the same time. It is funny how students even end up with different versions of the same story.
IT �s a fun activity!

I read this in a methodology book when I was a student.. And I have also �play � this with my students.. It isn �t in a book we use for the classroom.. I mean a common �class book � where I �ve seen this. It isn �t your idea I �m afraid..
Please, don �t take me wrong... the idea of the worksheets yes but the game already has an author!
I �ll get you the name of the author of these compilation of activities and games. I �ll have to look at my bookshelf.

Edit: Here is one of the books: "Resource books for teachers" by Alan Maley
´Learner-based teaching´ - Colin Campbell & Hanna Kryszewska. 5th edition

I love that approach and often use a similar one and it �s really motivating. A friend of mine made a great ws based on Backstreet Boys � lyrics for a song, but she put all the wrong body parts in the song. The sts had a blast with that one. It doesn �t matter whose idea it was originally, it �s a great method. Thanks for reminding us of it. A little humour in teaching goes a long way! Especially this time of the year!

Silke may not have seen this book of yours that you �re writing about.
But she and her students had a brainstorm and came up with this idea.
Now no one said they invented the wheel here - but people around the
world sometimes do come up with the same idea, often with variations.
So what?  Does it matter? I think it �s great she shared this idea with us!

I did have a training session  with Alan Maley who is indeed a great esl author!

He does have brilliant ideas. Like Mario Rinvolucri , he is one of the greatest! Humanistic

teaching: brilliant.
