Show & Tell - Ice Breaker for All Ages
This is a fun take on Show & Tell intended for ESL learners, but applicable to all types of learners. Learners have to pick an object to describe that they have on them. They have 2 minutes to think about what they're going to say and then each member of the class has 3 minutes to cover all the points listed that they need to talk about as a mini impromptu presentation they give in from the class. The class and teacher then have a chance to ask questions. This is a fun way to get to know
