Students' own images

A) As a homework assignment, ask your students to search for photos of their own that would represent an idiom they have just learned in the lesson. Alternatively, they take photos with their mobile phones and share them in the lesson. Later, you can upload the pictures and use them for various activities. Students can, for example, add captions, compare and contrast the images, vote for the best one, etc.

B) Ask your students to find a photo (in their album, PC files) they particularly like. Ask them to brainstorm some key words they associate with the image. They can make a mind map, word cards or a list, depending on their learning style preferences. They search for idioms with the words (on the internet or in their dictionaries). They select the one that best represents the image. Finally, they bring the image and their idiom to the class and share it with their mates.
