The Laughing Classroom
by Martha Weston
"The Laughing Classroom" is packed with hands-on techniques for applying humor and play to all aspects of teaching--techniques that have been successful for thousands of teachers, parents, speakers, and students throughout the country. These methods are divided into three categories: Warm-Ups, Laughing Lessons, and Play Breaks. Included are self-help tests, heartwarming vignettes, informative charts, and quotes. There are methods for effective discipline, reframing negatives into positives, "before and laughter" scenarios, and much more. These techniques are simple and fun, and can be used without a practice run. "The Laughing Classroom" is currently being used as a text in a graduate level course that is based on the book. "The Laughing Classroom" emerged from the authors' extremely popular workshops on the power of laughter and play. One of the most effective tools to evoke enthusiasm for learning, they found, is to create an atmosphere of fun in the classroom. If students are having fun learning, they do better in school. We all learn more effectively if we're enjoying the process! The result is an abundance of time-tested ideas, reflecting years of experience in creating and collecting fun, practical teaching tools for evoking laughter, play, and bonding.
