Pictures in the classroom<\/strong><\/p>\n

By Tarun Patel<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pictures could prone to be a great aid in the ELT process. Pictures give students information which does not require translation. Pictures can avoid long explanations in words which students would not understand.<\/p>\n

Pictures also help students communicate incomplete information and so they leave space for the students’ imagination and creativity.<\/p>\n

Here is an activity<\/strong> on using pictures in an ELT classroom;<\/p>\n

Collect full length pictures of people from a clothes catalogue.<\/p>\n

Cut off the heads and paste them on small cards.<\/p>\n

Cut off the feet (and shoes)\u00a0paste them on small cards.<\/p>\n

Give a collection of cards to a group of students.<\/p>\n

Ask them to try to match the heads and feet. Ask them to try to explain the matches they have made.<\/p>\n
