Chores

This is an upper intermediate (CEFR B2, IELTS 6.0) EFL Speaking class about chores. The first activity has students describing some pictures of common chores. Next, they discuss the meaning of chore, as well as some basic questions related to their experiences of chores. Vocabulary (vacuum, dishes, laundry, clean, tidy, set the table) is introduced using pictures. Students then match each chore with a suitable verb to learn some collocations. A further discussion follows. Three production activities follow (a rank and defend about which chore is the most boring, agree/disagree, a role play between a parent and a child).
