Hi,
I'm looking for somewhat interesting topics/articles for my high level lunchtime chatting club. Our school subscribes to the Young Times newspaper, but I don't find their articles that inspiring all the time. Do any of you absolutely love any of the on-line resources? I'm thinking of trying Breaking News English articles. Any success with these? |

| I just look for my own stuff online. I got the students to give me a list of topics, then I google around looking for something good based on that topic. |

| I've used Breaking News English with adults. Just the articles. The activities that come with them are mainly a waste. Some can be modified for use in class, but the fact that they repeat their format so much makes them a bit boring. |
