ESL Speaking Activity for kids and adults
Skills: Speaking/listening
Time: 15 minutes
Level: Intermediate]
Materials Required: Strips of paper (or students can make their own)
Give each student five strips of paper. On each piece of paper they write something interesting about themselves. Then, collect them, mix them up and distribute them back to your students (three per student). At this point, everyone stands up and goes around the class asking questions to try to find the owner for each paper that they have. If someone is done early, you can give them another paper from the reserve pile that you have.
For example,
“Do you go to _____ middle school?”
“Do you have a twin brother?”
“Do you love to play soccer?
Teaching Tip:
Students need to write down interesting and unique things about themselves. For example, “I go to XYZ university” is something that every other student in the class will say yes to so it is not a good thing to use.
