10 Short Image Lessons

This book is a collection of fluency activities that encourage students to think creatively and which help to build their ability to empathise with others.

Each short lesson is based around a beautiful image, starts with a vocabulary building activity and has a set of questions designed to make students think more deeply about the story behind the image and encourage their curiosity and imagination.

The lessons also include creative activities that can be used for writing or speaking practice. These include role-plays, simulations and creative writing tasks.

Each lesson also ends with some form of follow up research task that encourages students to find out more about the images and topics that the activities deal with.

These short lessons can be used in full to form the basis of a fluency lesson or they can be used in part as warmers or fillers to get students speaking and thinking in English.

Each lesson also includes a digital presentation that can either be shared using a projector or students can access the materials on their mobile devices using a short link or QR code.

The QR codes can be accessed through the teachers’ presentation.
