Your Perfect Girlfriend or Boyfriend

The posted materials support Unit 2 of Let’s Talk for the Level 2 Speaking/Listening course. However, they might be useful for any class focusing on describing personal appearance. The materials involve the learners describing their perfect mate, while their class partner draw this perfect specimen. Since the drawing rarely looks like anything like how the first person intended, the activity can be a lot of fun. However, it’s important that the “artist” does not show the “describer” the drawing until the end of the activity. Before getting the students to do the activity, I model what should be done by describing my perfect partner and getting them to do the drawing. Feedback welcome.
