YOU CAN IMPROVE YOUR ENGLISH SPEAKING SKILLS

(by yourself and/or with a volunteer friend)

Practice and improve your English speaking skills with these simple activities

If you are an elementary student of English, I strongly recommend these activities which you can do alone (at first) so as to practice and improve your English speaking skills. 

Then, if you have a friend willing to work with you, try them. They will definitely help you soften your tongue. And you will show yourself that you CAN!!!



1)
Write on a piece of paper with “agree” on one side, and “disagree” on the other side. Read aloud a controversial statement, e.g.: "Dogs shouldn´t live on the streets"  and try to say simple sentences (Remember S + V + the rest of the sentence) just to express if you agree or not. If a friend wants to help you try to hold a short debate.

Have a look! (and always remember: S + V + the rest of the sentence - simple word order until you are ready to go a step forward)

a) I love dogs / I don´t like dogs
b) It is not nice to find dog poop on the sidewalks
c) People must be responsible for their pets
d) We must help homeless dogs to find a safe place to live
e)We must promote responsible shelter for dogs living in the streets 



2)

Find two or three pictures you really like on the web. You have to build up simple sentences trying to describe them in such a way your friend is able to draw them.  Have a look!

You can work like this:

a) I can see a sweet dog

b) It/He has brown hair with dark spots (todas las palabras que no sepas decir, búscalas en un diccionario y sin darte cuenta estarás aprendiendo inglés!!!!! - look up in the dictionary those words you want to use but don´t remember how to say them and ... you will be learning new words without noticing it!!!)

c) It/He has a big bar of brown chocolate in his mouth

d) The dog has beautiful eyes

e) Its/His ears are big

f) I like this dog very much
