You can also play Sell Me the Product by randomly associating an adjective and a name, so that you end up selling a surprise insurance contract, or musical suspenders... More difficult but hilarious. The association adjective + name can be imposed, or the students can choose them from short or longer lists.
Another great video of yours, Martin, thank you ! There is a book I like using to find inspiration for speaking activities : ESL Role Plays - 50 Engaging Role Plays for ESL and EFL Classes, by Larry Pitts. It provides lists of interesting questions to prompt a debate on a variety of topics, as well as engaging role plays with clever arguments to defend each point of view. (Do I have to precise that I don't know the author and won't perceive any money for recommending it?)
That is a great book and thank you for recommending it. For those that are interested, feel free to order "ESL Role Plays" paperback on Amazon today available here: amzn.to/3vUJvhn. I would also recommend "Role Plays for Today": amzn.to/3SBYPs5
Don't forget to add your favourite speaking activities in the comments or to request particular videos to be included in future weekly episodes! 😊

That's a great idea! Thanks for sharing.
Great video! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Martin! :) Your videos have been a massive help along the way, great seeing them back! Hope you're keeping well in South Korea! :D
Thanks so much for taking the time to comment and I am so pleased you have found my videos helpful. All is well here in Korea and hope you are well. 😊
Your videos have encouraged me to start my Preply profile
Thank you
You can do it!
Love the ideas. Thank you! Do you think lower level students are able to handle these activities?

Appreciate the great tips! I'm certainly going to start using story cubes in my lessons.
Fantastic! I hope you have fun with this task.
