I was looking for a way to review and practice students giving information about themselves. I found this great activity that was perfect.
On Day 1, I used this slide where students had to complete the sentences with the correction question word. I had been asking these questions to students for the past week.
The following day, on Day 2, I asked students how to ask for the following information (How do you ask for someone's name). After coming up with the question, I projected this on the board:
Then, to go along with our school's theme of Superheros, I told students they were getting new identities/aliases today and they had to interview their partner. Each student got a
character card that had the following information on it:
*Name
*Age
*Country
*Birthday
*Characteristic
*Hobby
Students interviewed their classmates and used the information from the card to answer the questions. The next step was presenting themselves to the class. I left the slide on the board for students to reference putting it in a full sentence.
As students listened to their classmates, they had to write the name of the classmates on a chart that described the characteristics of certain identities (Busco a alguien page).
If you want a set of 32 Character cards and a whole lot of other activities, check out all the details here.
This ready to print lesson contains 30 pages and many different activities to practice!
If you want to practice just Name, age, country, birthday, then you might want to check out Tarjetas Personales. These are also a great way to match up classmates. We also have a French version.
