EVU 5 Describing People

Describing Someone's Appearance

Warming-Up

Let's play a game!

One student will take another student in mind (in this class).

You have to guess who it is by asking questions in English about what they look like! Raise your hand before you answer!

Goals

* At the end of this lesson, you have learned how to describe someone's appearance by doing the exercises of chapter 5 of your EVU book.

* At the end of this lesson, you have described each other's appearance in a conversation with the words of chapter 5 of your EVU book.

Let's watch a video together!

Before we start watching, I will ask one of you to give me two examples of describing someone's height.

Please make notes while watching the video.

Please name two examples.

Please open your English Vocabulary In Use book on page 16 & 17.
