Kinaesthetic activities

One thing we have learned through experience is that students, no matter if young or old, learn better by doing.
Our idea was realy simple. Have students follow the instuctions of the trainer, without pre-teaching the vocabulary. (in our case movement verbs and body parts). It's a great way to introduce new words and have fun at the same time.
Of course you don't need to hire a personal trainer to do this. Depending on the vocabulary you want to teach, you can develop your own instructions and practice with your students in the classroom.
You can find numerous sites on the internet with instructions as well as videos for you to use.
If you want to make it even more difficult, you could cover the image and use it as a listening activity.
