Week 8 Describing people drawing Mr Imran


Students had to draw their teacher. Then as a group had to discuss how to describe him. The students enjoyed talking about hair styles clothes personalities and even how tall their teacher was. Even though I am short and said i was tall, i think they were just being nice. It's a fun visual activity which incorporated learning the language within the activity. 

Student dictation : appearance conversation




Students were given a conversation between two people about their appearance. One student was chosen in each group to read the conversation while other students had to write what they hear down. They check spellings and do peer correction at the end.

This is a good exercise to help students with the speaking, listening, pronunciation and spelling.
