WHO ARE
YOU???…
It
is always interesting to learn a little bit more about the people
that are around us so in this first activity we are going to find
out how much we know about our classmates!!
Instructions
This
activity can be done in groups of four or five students, or it can
also be done with the class as a whole.
The
students must write down a description about themselves, they can
use the phrases and words bellow, to help them out. (If they need
help with the verb “To be” they can find a section in Grammar Help)
Remember
that the most important thing is to let them express themselves,
it doesn't matter if they make mistakes, they must write it down
in English!
Once
they have finished they MUST NOT WRITE DOWN THEIR NAMES, the point
of this activity is to see if the other classmates can guess whose
description it is!
Collect
all the descriptions, mix them up, and hand them back to the students
Now
each student must have someone else's description. The student must
now read out loud the description they have and the whole group
must try to guess who it belongs to.
