My Emoji Weekend – Lesson PlanPreparationWrite what you did at the weekend, but, write it in emojis. Like this:Take a photo of the emojis and either print them out or project them in some way.Class ProcedureShow students the emojis and tell them that they represent your weekend. In pairs students have to recreate your weekend as a text, this is a good opportunity for them to practice past simple and also language of sequencing: After that/afterwards, later, in the afternoon, firstly, secondly, finally etc.Give students about 5 mins to prepare their text, monitoring and boarding any vocabulary. Students then read out their version of your weekend. The pair whose version is closest to the real version is the winner. You can also award points for imagination. Below is the text version of my weekend.My WeekendOn Saturday morning I had a lie-in because I was very tired. I woke up at around 11 and had a cooked breakfast. Then I watched a football match on TV. After that I went to the city centre to go clothes shopping, I bought a new shirt and some trousers. Then I stopped in a kebab shop for lunch. When I got home I watched an action film on my laptop and went to bed early.On Sunday I had to get up early, I got up at 7am. I ate two bananas for breakfast and then I ran the Barcelona half-marathon. I finished the race and won a medal. Afterwards I went to a bar with some friends to celebrate. I drank some beers and ate a hamburger. When I got home I had a shower, played some videogames and went to bed, I was exhausted!Pair-workNow give students 2 minutes to draw their weekend ?in emojis. If you want you could have students send their emoji weekend to each other via a messenger app, this may not be advisable with some groups.They should know most of the emojis but if they don't use the pictures below:Students then have to guess what their partner did by looking at their emojis. They then tell each other if they were wrong or right and explain the real version. ................
