Task: Our Gallery
Topic Overview
This topic should enable students to recognise and use some very basic phrases to talk about themselves.
Students will learn to introduce themselves and others and ask and answer questions about personal details
such as where they live, how old they are and give simple physical descriptions. Students may take material
that is relevant to their life and the lives of others from a wider pool of information provided.
Task Description
The aim of this task is for students to use key vocabulary/language chunks that they have used to describe
themselves/others and use it to describe famous faces from the target language countries.
(i) The teacher should begin this task by displaying a picture of a famous person from the T.L country/countries.
The teacher will then elicit vocabulary/chunks from the students to describe this famous person.
(ii) The students then research a famous person from the T.L country/countries and write a brief description of this
person. Each student must have a different famous person. The chosen portrait should provide students with
the opportunity to write/discuss name/age/ /personality/physical description/where they live.
(iii) The students will then stick up their chosen portraits around the room in a gallery format. They will introduce
their portrait to the class and hear descriptions of other portraits.
Learning Outcomes
•
Create a simple text about famous people
•
Recognize frequently used words and chunks
when describing people
•
Recognise well known people from the
target language countries
Resources
A chosen portrait of somebody from the target language
countries for demonstration purposes
Comments:
Instead of asking students to choose their own
famous person the teacher could also provide
students with a portrait. Printing portraits and sticking
them up allows for a nice classroom display. Where
this is not possible portraits may also be displayed on
tablet screens as opposed to printing and sticking
them up on the wall.
