The best job in the world?

Ask students if they know of any incredible jobs.

To help them with this, you could show them photos like these of people with unusual jobs.

Then, show students the heading from an advert that went viral back in 2009:

http://theinspirationroom.com/daily/2009/best-job-in-the-world-shortlisted/

Ask them to guess what the job might be.  (They may remember the advert, depending on their age).

Show them the newspaper advert for the job:

And/or, the video:

There is loads more you can do on this theme.  There are hundreds of videos of Ben Southall, who won the competition for the Best Job in the World.  Ben still works in the Queensland area and has a blog about his continuing adventures.

I'll be writing another post about an unusual job shortly.  In the meantime, I have several jobs to do myself!!!........
