NAME ACROSTIC

NAME ACROSTIC

This is a great activity as a community builder on a first day of class.
1-Ask students to get a piece of paper.
2-Ask students to write their first names on the paper in a vertical position.
3-Have the students write one word beginning with each letter of their first names.
Those words have to say something true about themselves, for example: a quality, something they like or dislike, a favorite, or anything else as long as it is true information.
4-When everyone is finished have them share their acrostics in pairs or groups.
5-Ask students to report something they learned about their peers.

Long hair (I have long hair)
Intelligent (I think I'm intelligent)

PRODUCTIVE ROLL CALL

If you have a large class, you might spend quite a while calling the roll. Try doing this in a productive way. If, for example, the current lesson is about colors, you can ask your students to say their favorite colors when hearing their names instead of replying with the traditional PRESENT. Have your students use the language being taught when responding to their names during roll call. That way you comply with your duty while your students practice their English.
