In my professional life, I give bonus points to any tool that is super easy to navigate and gives me, in a matter of minutes, a very visual professional-looking design. And more bonus points if it is free, easily shared and reliable. And that’s Spark Adobe Page. I have been using it since 2017 and no other tool has been able to supersede it. I really cannot say enough how much I love this tool. Well, I think I just have!! 😆
This time, I have created a beautiful speaking lesson for my C1 students. These food-for-thought questions are likely to spark off some controversy and heavily engage your students- in fact, my students spent an hour talking about the first two questions.
Hope you enjoy the lesson and starting today, it also becomes a must-go tool for you, too.
Note: this is not a sponsored post. I only write about what I like and works for me.
Before we dive deep into the lesson; let’s start with a small warm-up.
Warm-Up
- Write a fashion-related word on the board (e.g., “jacket”)
- Students must say a word that begins with the last letter of the previous word
- Words must be fashion or clothing related
- Students who can’t think of a word within 5 seconds are “out”
- Continue until there’s a winner
Speaking: Are these statements true for you?
- I hate shopping
- Most of my favourite possessions are things that I have bought for myself
- I rarely buy things ” on impulse”
- I prefer owing fewer clothes but high-quality branded ones
- I think people in my country are very materialistic
- People in my country tend to follow fashion trends too much.
- I prefer shopping online because it’s more convenient and often cheaper
