 1G Its personal!
Aims To give further practice in writing a personal profile
message. To recycle language and vocabulary from the unit.
Time 10 minutes for activity + additional time to write
profile
Materials 1 handout for each student
Give each student a copy of the handout and explain that
they are going to create some personal profiles, stressing
that they are not writing about themselves and must
invent the answers. Each of the ten sections on the profile
should be completed by a different student in the class.
To begin, each student writes a name in the box at the
top and then folds the sheet over, so their answer is
hidden. Make sure they do not write their name. When
everyone has done that, tell them to pass their sheet to
their left. This continues until all of the questions have
been answered.
Make it clear that students must write legibly, they must
not look at the previous answers and they must wait for
you to tell them to pass on their sheet to the next person.
Once students have answered the last question, they pass
their paper to the left for the last time. Each student now
opens up the sheet and reads the completed profile.
Students now use the information to write a personal
profile message, using the first person.
