Every day is a new adventure -- whether or not it involves a change in physical latitude. Taking advantage of the latitude I have to experience new things, meet new people and go new places has enriched my life. And sharing the discoveries I've made along the way makes these experiences all the more meaningful. Thanks for reading my musings.

English Discussion Topics - Idioms
When doing some reading about the Teach for Friendship program, I was directed to the website ESLdiscussions.com. This site has hundreds of ideas on topics to discuss and has a site for questions relating to idioms. For instance, do you think it's a "dog eat dog" world? Do you know anyone who's a bird brain? Having your student use an idiom in a sentence will enhance understanding and creativity--and is bound to generate a pretty lively discussion!
