Default Re: Riddles for the ESL classroom

The answers :
1) The man jumped out of a plane but his parachute didn't open.
2) The man had hiccups.

I noticed as I was doing it that Clive's question needed more complex structures for some of the questions than my two. Before using these puzzles, you need to think them through and predict the questions the students might want to ask so that you can decide which level they're suitable for.

I wrote about how I use them in the classroom here, and if you want to see some more puzzles, try here.
