Hello,please give me an idea how to plan the first lesson with adults. Their English level is elementary. Maybe some games and activities. Thanks in advance.

Hi Esperanza, do you know that game where everybody gets a name sticked to her/his forehead with the name of a famous person on it? You have to find out what person you�ve got on your forehead/sticker by asking yes/no-questions from the rest of the group like "Am I a woman?", "Am I an actor?", "Do I live in ... ?", "Did I star in ... ?" ... - it�s great fun. You can keep asking questions as long as you get positive answers, if a question is answered NO, it�s the next person�s turn. The winner is the one who finds out who she/he is first. Groups shouldn�t be too big, so everybody gets his turn without waiting too long. Would be nice to introduce questions, which in turn might help doing interviews to get to know each other. Actually, I have no idea if it works, I don�t teach adults ... I just hope for the best :)! Have a lovely day, all the best with that lesson! Take care, Elisabeth.
