Many times we read news that is really unbelievable and amazing, the comment with friends, make jokes, telling stories that come to mind and other news, though vaguely, having to do with the others. Why not take this activity to communicative language classroom? To this end, we propose to the holders of a class such news to tell if they believe they are true or lies. And you, what do you think?

This kind of news that, in my case, I classify 
curiosities are constant. Another option is to ask students to develop a story that matches the original owners and then compare the texts to discover what is more unlikely: the real news or invented by the students. Advance and that reality is stranger than fiction :-)
