About this ebook
There are physical, social and mental benefits that humour can bring to the learning environment - benefits such as creating openness, bravery, teamwork, imagination and creativity and, most of all, improving relationships between students and teachers. This book includes a brief history of laughter, gives you the rules of Funny and explains why having a laugh should be in your job description. Included are exercises to encourage laughter and techniques that will create an environment that is linked to encouraging and improving learning as well as a whole load of comical comments, quotes and, of course, gags.
