This is a speaking activity which is designed to get students to think about what makes an effective language learner and what they could do to be more effective in their own studies.
This is a revision game based on football. Students from each team answer revision questions then pass the ball to another person on their team and until they have enough correct answers to score a goal.
This activity is based around a chart containing information about football. It is a quick quiz reading activity and can be used to either practice or present superlatives and comparatives.
This is a speaking activity. It is based around a situation. The students have a description of a football club and some descriptions of players that they could buy.
These activities will help your students respond to the text as a whole - as we do in our first language - rather than study it discreetly, as students usually do in a foreign language.
