Something interesting about myself

Talking; volunteering personal information.

Procedure: A volunteer student tells the others something
interesting about him or herself, which he or she is willing to talk
about.
I play in a jazz band.
My family is going to live abroad.
The others ask questions.
It is a good idea to start the ball rolling by being the first
volunteer yourself; or ask students who you know are more
confident and uninhibited to be the first.

Songs

Listening, reading and singing.
Preparation: Select a tape recording of a song, or learn a song so
that you can sing it. Prepare an overhead transparency (or a poster,
or a handout) of the words of the song.
Procedure: Play the song on the tape (or sing it yourself). Show
the words of the song and ask the students to follow the words and
to sing while you play it again. Deal with any questions or
confusion over meaning.
