Humor
Susan Stucker: I was searching for some humorous examples that I might use with my students to demonstrate some of their errors and came upon a wealth of riddles, jokes, puns, and puzzles. I have listed the websites where you can see the multitude of examples. To entice you, I will list one example from each website.
http://iteslj.org/c/jokes-riddles.html "How many people are buried in that cemetery? All of them." This could be used to discuss the meaning of buried.

http://iteslj.org/c/jokes-short.html My friend said he knew a man with a wooden leg named Smith. So I asked him "What was the name of his other leg?" (Try this one with your students the next time you are teaching a lesson that includes this type of grammar.)
