A PPT Lesson designed to help learners describe films. Including useful vocabulary and phrases, as well as a reading task in the style of the PET (Cambridge Preliminary) Reading paper.

A PPT I made to introduce my students to what inferences are. There are tasks to make inferences based on a photograph, and then from song lyrics - one for each era. Debut and Fearless I have designed with question prompts for whole class examples, and then each other era to be printed individually for small group work. The final task is a writing task based on a photograph encouraging students to show not tell. Could also be the basis for a nice annotated class display.

A PPT designed to help students review 7 main types of figurative language: Similes, Metaphors, Onomatopoeia, Alliteration, Hyperbole, Idioms and Personification. Students fill in the vowels to remember and spell them correctly, then write a short definition of each one with an example sentence, then there are 10 short extracts from pop song lyrics where students need to correctly identify the types of figurative language used in each one. I also found the exact parts of the song for the students to listen to as they were thinking and this went down really well. Great for an end of term review after introducing figurative language. From my experience - students found this really engaging.
