Foodies

Students post pictures of food or drink they like, write questions about each other's pictures, and answer them — practising food vocabulary and question forms.

Procedure

1. Set up the task on your platform of choice (forum, Padlet, or in class). Post a picture of a dish or drink you like.
2. Task 1 (Stimulus): Students each post one question about your picture. You answer their questions and note them in a separate document, correcting language. Set a deadline.
3. Task 2 (Interaction): Share the corrected question list. Each student posts their own food/drink picture. They must post questions to at least three other students about their pictures, using the corrected questions as models. They answer questions about their own picture.
4. At the end, post a summary of all items. Students answer a wrap-up question: "Which was your favourite picture?" / "Plan a meal for friends using items from our task" / "If you could only eat two things from this week's pictures, what would they be?"

Tips

• Works asynchronously over several days online, or adapted for a single in-class session
• In class: display pictures, students "post" questions on paper or a digital noticeboard (Padlet), then share their own phone photos
• Clear language focus on food vocabulary, question forms, with error correction built in
• Adaptable to other topics: favourite clothing, books, films, souvenirs
