The biggest lie

Two boys were arguing when the teacher entered the room.

The teacher says, "Why are you arguing?"

One boy answers, "We found a ten dollar  bill and decided to give it to whoever tells the biggest lie."

"You should be ashamed of yourselves," said the teacher, "When I was your age I didn't even know what a lie was."

The boys gave the ten dollars to the teacher!!!!!

,Dear TEFL students

A couple of days ago, I was thinking of a way to appreciate the effort some of you have recently been putting into the activities of your association, and particularly this blog. I mean a gift or something. And I came to the conclusion that nothing can be more pleasing to the students than some extra points to their final score. Therefore, I hereby officially announce that those who make considerable and efficient contribution to the blog and other extracurricular activities that are in line with our educational purposes will receive at least 0.5 and at most 2 (depending on the quantity and quality of the contribution!) added points to the final score of one of the courses .they have with me in each semester

Comments and questions are welcomed!

Online English Discussion

Hi there!

Last time we were leaving the class, some students and I had a short discussion about ways to extend the activities of the society. Mr.Mousavi suggested "Online English Discussion". That is, volunteers can come together to talk inside a chatroom, virtual software, or instant messenger about a specific topic at a prearranged date and time. What do you think? Do you think it is practical and more important than that, is it efficient? Please share your point of view.

 

Easy and Difficult

Easy is to get a place in someone’s address book
Difficult is to get a place in someone’s heart

Easy is to judge the mistakes of others
Difficult is to recognize our own mistakes

Easy is to talk without thinking
Difficult is to refrain the tongue

Easy is to hurt someone who loves us
Difficult is to heal the wound

Wisdom Quotes

Keep love in your heart. A life without it, is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead. The consciousness of loving and being loved brings a warmth and richness to life that nothing else can bring

        Oscar Wilde                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              

master it

You cannot control what happens to you, but you can control your attitude toward what happens to you, and in that, you will be mastering change rather than allowing it to master you.

Brian Tracy

Sizdah Bedar

The 13th day of the new year is called "Sizdah Bedar" and spent mostly outdoors. People will leave their homes to go to the parks or local plains for a festive picnic. It is a must to spend Sizdah Bedar in nature. This is called Sizdah Bedar and is the most popular day of the holidays among children because they get to play a lot! Also in this day, people throw the Sabze away, they believe Sabze should not stay in the house after "Sizdah Bedar". Iranians regard 13th day as a bad omen and believe that by going into the fields and parks they avoid misfortunes. It is also believed that unwed girls can wish for a husband by going into the fields and tying a knot between green shoots, symbolizing a marital bond.
