Projects

These projects are optional but will become a great aid to enhance your lessons by providing opportunities for
students to express themselves more freely. These types of activities are suitable for mixed-ability classes since all
students can participate regardless of differences in skill.
You may either photocopy the Project sheet on page 115 of this Teachers Guide or you may ask students to
bring their own sheets of paper or cardboard. It is advisable to store all the projects in a safe place so that you can
put them together in a binder or folder to be presented to the parents as an end-of-year gift. This, in turn, will
make a visual impact of the hard work you and your students have done throughout the year.

a Paste a photo of yourself on a blank sheet of paper.
b Draw your favourite clothes next to it.
