Pictures from my game... =)

Pictures from my game... =)
 
Dear friends, need your help again!!! My mind is SOOOOOOOOOOOO tired, it refuses to function! LOL
 
Tomorrow, I will play a game with my students, to practice the clothing vocabulary we saw today... my idea is to have them bring in real clothes, different kinds of items. I made 4 teams of 4 ss, and they have to bring as much clothes as they can, trying to cover as much from our list as possible. Well, the idea is to have each team make a pile with their clothes, one ss will be the "statue", the other 2 will be the "dressers" and the last will be the one who has to choose a card, read the "situation", dictates to  the "dressers" one item at a time, in order to dress their "statue" to fit the "ocasion"...
the dressers can only go to the pile of clothes, and pick ONE item at a time, run to the "statue", dress him/her with the item, run back to the "dictator" for another indication, etc. until the time runs out (aprox 1 or 2 minutes). The team who has dressed their statue with the most correct items for the occasion wins a point.
So far, I have thought of 5 occasions, but I need more to have more variety... can you help me with some ideas?
 
1.- an elegant party
2.- a business meeting
3.- a job interview
4.- a casual party with friends
5.- a formal dinner
6.-
7.-
8.-
9.-
10.-
 
Did I make any sense trying to explain the game? LOL!!! I have the "organized" idea in my head LOL! but the tiredness is making it a little hard to explain coherently!!!
 
Thanks in advance!!!
