PRO JECT - ASSESSMENT

 Activity: Students’ favorite clothes fashion show. Besides linguistic skills, the purpose of the activity is to help promote respect and intercultural
skills in the classroom.

Materials and resources: Song and clothes.

Conducting the project: Students are going to wear, for that specific class, their favorite clothes. Students will be both in the role of designers and
models. First, each student is going to present the outfit they’ve chosen for the fashion show by using the sentence “I’m wearing…”. Then, as the
teacher creates an atmosphere for a fashion show in the classroom (turn off some lights, put on some music, etc.), students are going to pretend they
are walking on a catwalk as models. As a student models, another student is going to describe the model’s outfit, for instance: “Carol is wearing…”.
Students who are attending from home will follow the same steps.
