| Title | Ideas for Practicing Physical Descriptions |
| Body | One thing I've done this year is have the students cut out people from magazines and use some of the description words to describe them. That way, they use the vocabulary as well as make sure the adjectives agree with the person in the picture. I also gave them the option of drawing someone. You might have them bring in pictures from home with family members or friends if you want. In Español 1 the book suggests doing a fashion show with cooperative groups. That might add some variety to your class also. Hanson, D. Re: clothes, colors, personal characteristics (en espanol 1.2). Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv.

Bush, Chelsea Clinton, Brad Pitt, Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, Osama bin Laden, Britney Spears or even Santa Claus. Students go up to the front, pull out a name, and describe the person to the rest of the class. Whoever guesses correctly gets to go up next. Students really enjoy this! Haak, R.
