Composite Person Activity for Language Learners


In this video, I share a learner-centered activity called the composite person activity, which encourages creativity while practicing vocabulary related to body parts. Participants can draw or collage images of a person using various elements and then label at least 10 body parts, which helps in describing people naturally. I suggest extending the activity with a gallery walk or having learners describe their creations for others to draw, promoting speaking and listening skills in the target language. This activity is perfect for independent learners and can be included in a portfolio of journal entries.
