1. Show and tell

• You choose a picture from your phone that means something to you and that you are able to tell something about.
• Make groups 4 or 5 persons
• Every group member is going to talk 1 - 2 minutes

Instruction:

• TIME:  2 minutes per person
  
• HOW:  In groups of max. 5 people
  
• HELP:  If you don’t know a word, try to describe it or ask if                       someone in your group knows.
                 If you don’t know what else to  say about your picture,                 the people in your group can ask questions –                                   preferably open ended questions!

2. Interview celebrity

• You are going to interview someone! 
• Choose someone you admire and whom
  you wish to ask 5 questions
  (he/she doesn't have to live anymore)
• Choose someone you know quite a lot about!
• Choose 5 verbs from the list you'll see in the next slide, write these verbs down

Choose 5 verbs:

decide	hate	love
offer	prefer	move
win	continue	buy
wait	consider	change
keep	forget	repeat

Make 5 questions:

• Make 5 questions with each verb
  
• Make sure you can answer these question yourself!
• These questions are the ones you are going to use in the interview
• For example:   
  - What did you love about being the president  of the USA?    - Did you like to move to The White House? Why? Why not?
