Football Crazy

Hi All
I hope you won �t mind me mentioning �Football Crazy � here - it �s too big to upload as a printable, but I want to share it with everyone.
Football Crazy is a 52 page book with colourful illustrations.
There are 12 short texts, each about different aspects of football (umm ... that �s �soccer � to our American cousins).
The book also has 24 exercises for developing various reading skills and vocabulary.
With the football World Cup about to begin, the text and exercises would be great to use as part of a lesson on sport. Perfect for a reluctant reader with an interest in football.
Oh, did I mention? It �s FREE to download. Hope you like it:
Best wishes
Brian

Hi Brian!Thanks for including this link! And while I �m here say that I �m a big fan of Grammarman! When �s he going to get out of that neverending hole? :P
Thanks so much for your website and keeping your materials free!

Hi Aileen
You �re very kind. Thanks!
I �ll get Grammarman out of that neverending hole just as soon as I �ve dealt with my neverending workload. Ha ha ha!!
Actually, I do have plans for the second half of that story. Hopefully you �ll see it online before the end of this year.
For anyone who hasn �t read it, the tall story Aileen is talking about is here:
Cheers!

Dear Brian,
Thanks so much for the link!
And thank you for all the free materials, too! It �s so generous of you!
Hope you will soon manage to get through the neverending workload! When you do, will you also share with us the secret of how to deal with it successfully?  I �ve been trying to for years, but alas! no luck!
Have a great weekend
Pollyanna

Thanks a lot, Brian, for sharing this great resource. Two groups of students at my school are also athletes, they love football, and I �m sure they �ll be very interested in these articles.
