Vocabulary to practice describing scenery and cities using famous Spanish landmarks.
This is a simple activity in which students have to describe famous Spanish views incorporating useful chunks of language. I've found it effective in class because my students are interested in the places and have a genuine desire to describe them and guess where they are.
Students work in pairs.
Each slide has 3 Stages:
Stage 1 an image with useful vocabulary below it. Student A looks at the image and describes it to their partner who looks away.
Stage 2 the image without vocabulary. Student B sees the image their partner has described and tries to guess which phrases were previously displayed. Pairs then speculate as to where the picture was taken.
Stage 3 the image with useful phrases and the name of the location. Reveal the answers, then get students to switch roles before you show the next image.
The idea is that students use as much interesting vocabulary as possible in addtion to the phrases on display in order to make it more difficult for their partners to guess and to push them to practice using more adventurous lexis.
