Back to School- Getting to Know You - Adult ESL Intermediate

This resource includes 6 ‘Getting to Know You’ activities suitable for Intermediate level Adult ESL students, that are great Back to School activities.
These resources are not intended to be a complete lesson but a variety of activities that can be used as part of other lessons. The activities in this resource stand alone and can be done in any order.

They are great for starting a new year or term because:

1. They help students to get to know each other
2. They help you to get the know the students and also assess their level of English

They are especially useful at the beginning of a course as ‘getting to know you’ activities, but they also work at other times of the year too and are a great way to get students talking. So if you don’t use them all you can keep them for later.

In this resource you will find 6 varied Activities that include:
4 x Speaking and Listening activities.
2 X Language learning strategy activities based on adult learning principles:
Goal setting
Learner needs analysis.

For more details of what’s included refer to the thumbnail for a list of contents.

Like all my resources, this lesson is designed specifically for adults. It incorporates the principles of adult learning, uses language that adults will need to use and situations that are relevant to adult learners.

I put a lot of effort into creating and checking my resources. If you happen see an error/typo etc please let me know so that I can correct it. And if you loved the resource a review is much appreciated .
