It is a short activity which can serve as a warm-up, energiser, a short task for fast finishers or the basis for the whole lesson. It is suitable for both teens and adults on absolutely all levels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Show your students a set of photos presenting different emotions. Identify and discuss them. Ask your students to choose one photo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now, the first task is to describe a situation in which their parent, partner, boss, a shop-assistant, hotel receptionist, friend, bus passenger, etc reacted in this way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The second idea is to ask your students to make a dialogue with the prevailing emotion from one of the photos at the party, during a romantic walk, negotiating a contract with an important client, at the dentist, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can also ask your students to write a few sentences the people from the photos could be saying using a particular grammar structure you want to revise, or just change the sentences into Reported Speech.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your students could also make sentences, dialogues, short stories based on the photos using a set of vocabulary you would like to revise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can also ask your students to choose two photos and tell a story which led from one kind of emotion to another one. Or even use all the emotions presented in the photos in one story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your students could also think of some pieces of advice they could give to the people from the photos to feel better or worse \ud83d\ude09 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am sure you will come up with a thousand more ideas how to use the photos showing different emotions. Let me know in the comments whether you like this kind of tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
