The approach is communicative with 2 listening activities and multiple opportunities for speaking to allow students to develop their speaking skills but it also contains a grammar point and interactive reading activities reinforced by exercises to consolidate their grammatical skills and writing skills. You will find different types of activities to allow a greater differentiation in your class: - A recap about personality adjectives and family members with a picture to label and a reading as a starter - A listening/reading with a matching up - Classification activities for adjectives - An introduction to descriptive elements of the face (eyes, hair) - A grammar point with the verb HAVE with examples - Exercises (matching up Q/A, filling gap) - Introduction to description elements of shape - A listening activity about a movie review - Interactive reading activities with a guessing game description - 2 writing activities - a word search as plenary - Review of objectives I suggest you use this resource after the ESL Unit 2 lesson 1 to help students structure their knowledge but you can easily use this resource on its own!
