Fun (stocking) Filler!

I had ten minutes spare in Year 7 lesson on physical description this week so opened up my visualiser and took out a clean sheet of paper – and made up some sentences about them – this was zero prep and the kids loved it.

I really couldn’t believe how much they enjoyed it, I wrote sentence such as “il est assez petit, il a les yeux bleus et les cheveux roux” and they had to guess who it was in the class.

I did it again with the Year 8 but this time it was about their personality as well – “Je pense qu’il est assez timide mais ses amis pensent qu’il est drôle. Il est toujours travailleur et poli …”

They then decided they wanted to write their own – which they did in silence (highly unusual for this class) and literally ran to put them up on the visualiser for others to see.

If you don’t have a visualiser you could just write them on a mini whiteboard and hold it up or take a photo on your phone and send it to your email.
