All about me
Who are you?
Soon, you will tell us a lot about you, but to do it...
Do you know how important is a PERSONAL DESCRIPTION?
Imagine this situation:
There's been a bank robbery and the police has 7 possible suspects. One of them is YOU. Of course you are innocent but they don't know yet. The witnesses described the criminals to the police. Help the police identify them and you will get absolved!
Read their descriptions and write their name on a post-it:
SUSPECT 1: (yellow)
"It was around midnight, but I could see the shadow of a young athletic man. He was wearing a black cape and a mask. I could see the image of a bat on his chest."
SUSPECT 2: (pink)
"I remember he was quite tall and a bit overweight, but really strong. He was wearing his red hair in two thick plaits. He was also wearing a helmet with two white horns on top. I could also see his white and blue trousers".
SUSPECT 3 : (green)
"I must admit he was short and slim. He had green, bright eyes and really dark hair. His hair was in a mess. I am sure he was wearing glasses. I think they were round. He had a strange scar on his forehead."
SUSPECT 4 : (blue)
"He was quite tall and definitely overweight. He had a quite big stomach. He wasn't bald but he had only two hair on his head. It may sound strange but... he was all yellow... I mean, his skin was yellow! He was wearing a white poloshirt and blue trousers".
SUSPECT 5 : (orange)
"It was really dark. I couln't see much. I think it was an athletic person. I'm not sure, but I think it was a woman or a girl. But I can't say much about her. Well... yes... She had dark hair and she was wearing red overalls... Sorry".
SUSPECT 6 : (purple)
"I can't say much about her but I felt really cold. There was ice all around her. It was really weird. She was a blond, pale girl dressed in a very elegant way. She was wearing a blue party dress. She was wearing her hair in a long thick plait."
Look at the blackboard and see which list is shorter.
Why is it so?
Now you...
So far, we don't know each other very much, and we'd really like to know YOU.
First of all, BRING a jprinted PHOTO of your room that shows the part of your room that best defines you. Please, write your name at the back.
(But DON'T SHOW IT TO ANYONE, PLEASE!)
We will gather all your photos together.
And as we listen to your oral presentations, we will try to identify you with your photo.
Tell us ALL ABOUT YOU!
It's time to prepare for your oral presentation.
1. Write your text in a Google Drive document, save it as "NAME_SURNAME_ALL_ABOUT_ME" and upload it in Google Classroom.
2. Create a PowerPoint or Prezi to help you during your presentation.
Upload it in Google Classroom, too.
In your presentation TALK ABOUT:
-
Who you are = talk about your name, age, birthday, different ways to contact you (email, Instagram...)
-
What you look like = your physical description (you can follow the description photocopy (from top to toe))
-
What you are wearing = talk about all the clothes you are wearing at the moment of the presentation
-
What you are like = talk about your personality
-
What your favourites are = talk about your hobbies, sports, free time activities, books, films, colour,
-
Who you love = talk about your family or best friends (animals included!)
-
Where you live = talk about your house, village, country of origin...
