Electronic diaries

http://www.visual-idioms.com/

Ask you students to write an electronic diary for one week. They can take down as many entries as they like but one a day is the minimum. Each entry should be titled with an idiom. For example:

• Tuesday: 14:15 Over a barrel

 
I went to the supermarket to buy some bread. At the entrance there was a woman selling some cosmetics. I wanted to pass her unnoticed but she stopped me and started to explain that I need this perfume. Finally she got me over a barrel and I surrendered.

• Tuesday: 18:00 Charity begins at home

I wanted to go out with my friends but my sister said she needed some help with her homework. I wasn't very happy but I finally agreed because I know that charity begins at home.


Ask your students to store their diaries electronically so that they can add some images and share their work.
