Well, first of all, I'd like to apologize to those who have been waiting for this post for so long. I definitely should have posted before, but things have been hectic!
Without further ado, the suggestions teachers made at the workshop held in BrasÃlia on May 30th.
BTW, teachers came up with these ideas at the workshop Quick Activities for Busy Teachers
Activity 1 - "Find your Partner"
this activity as a matching exercise, using pictures and captions,
jokes and punchlines...
Raquel suggested teachers could use occupations and their descriptions in this activity. One group of students have an occupation (e.g.: dentist) and the others have to ask "Do you...?" questions to guess the occupation.
Otavio: "Stick names on students' backs so they have to find out who they are". Very interesting idea!
Lilian also suggested teachers could use professions in this matching game, but she added that nationalities and families (using possessives) could be used as well.
Magda came up with a very nice idea: she has actually used food combinations in this type of activity: bread and butter, Coke and fries... isn't it a great warm-up activity when teaching food and drinks?
