Inspiring

This book was very inspiring. It gave many examples of how to bring humor and fun back into the classroom. It also helped me bring my creativity back into the classroom. Sometimes it's just the little things, the little changes in our attitudes that count. I thought that bringing in humor and laughter into my classroom was going to focus the attention away from learning and completing tasks, but it has proven the opposite. My students enjoy school more, and look forward to learning/playing. This book will bring out your best!

Best book for any teacher

This is the best book for any teacher to bring life back into the classroom. It is an easy read and the authors give practical ways to make learning fun.

Laughter in school makes a teacher's life easier.

This book completely validated me as an educator. My room is always loud and laughing, and some of the more traditional teachers are skeptical that my students are not learning because of our laughter and fun. I can assure you that they do learn, and are much more eager to please a teacher who truly enjoys them. This book offers great stories, strategies and lesson ideas for a "laughing classroom."

Laughing is healthy

I am an elementary school counselor always searching for new ideas and "fun" activities. This book is full of wonderful ideas. I would recommend it again and again! You get a lot for your money in this one!

What distinguishes a boring classroom from a learning classroom? Laughter. This book helps move teachers from a ?limiting? teaching style to a ?laughing? style that inspires creativity and helps students learn faster and better. Cowritten by a former educator and the founder of a comedy improvisation company, The Laughing Classroom helps teachers ? and parents ? make learning fun while instilling self-esteem, solid work habits, and the joy of learning in children. Suggested activities involve silly songs, special dress days, vocabulary-building, observation, communication, social skills, and self-expression. The book gives teachers 50 ways to say ?you did OK,? 15 play breaks, and humorous homework assignments to make the task fun. This edition includes a new introduction by the authors and a foreword by veteran comedian Steve Allen.
