No. 1. The Communicative Chair
This comfortable item of classroom furniture has been designed exclusively with the communicative classroom in mind. Those rubber spikes bend and fold when the occupant first sits down, whilst inside them, the carefully concealed steel pins gradually release themselves on a timer mechanism. After ten short minutes, the occupant is forced to get up and do some pointless mingling activity, ask a spectacularly dumb information-gap type of question, or ask their class colleagues how many times they watch TV, eat ice-cream, and fall over drunk.
These essential items can also be used in the staffroom, to stop teachers from falling asleep, and as a means of preventing the homeless ones from adopting the teachers' room as their downtown residence. These seats are indeed extremely versatile, and no serious language school should be without one - or a couple of dozen.
No. 2. The Tefl Taser
This recent addition to the tools employed by the forces of law and order has now been adapted for use in the classroom, and is gradually replacing the electric cattle prod as a means of ensuring total classroom compliance. When students appear reluctant to participate in the teacher's favourite senseless activities and pointless games, a quick high-voltage blast from the Tefl Taser restores the party atmosphere and keeps them in the mood for more mingling! This most versatile of educational tools can also be used, when turned up to maximum, to incinerate students who cheat in tests or do anything that annoys the teacher. The DOS can also think of other interesting ways of using them too, no doubt!

These two modern tools of classroom management can, when used in tandem, provide the students with a rich learning environment. Can your school seriously do without them?

There's still no substitute for giving them a firm rod up the backside when they misbehave. My teachers used to do it to me, so I guess it's an established and traditional method of classroom management.

Dearie me, why does Paul Lowe appear in the vilest of circumstances-in this case, just after a comment involving rods up pupils' backsides to put the tin lid on it...Someone did mention Paul Lowe being a sexual pervert and a dangerous one at that!
Mr Whacko must have made Paul Lowe excited.I would not like to be Paul Lowe's cleaner or carer...as well as having to shovel lengthy logs out of the linen-cupboard,there would also be a shed-load of dubiously-stained tissues and crusty socks to be removed from the vicinity of his computer on a regular basis.
On a more pertinent note, Sandy,has anyone adapted mediaeval torture equipment to the TEFL classroom? Perhaps the old methods ARE the best...
Has anyone else noticed that PL, if it is PL, has become an absolute bore.
Send that to your solicitor too; processing fee probably 150 pounds, off the retainer obviously.
Incidentally, here's something for him to mull over:I am actually Mario Rinvalucrative after he's sunk a couple of litres of Carlsberg Special Brew. May Paul Lowe have a life of merry hell, the boring,pompous little shyster!
