Cricket and the five senses, EAL style

Friday 21st August: Today the students finished their fantasy teams, writing explanations for why they had chosen their players. 

After a brief interlude of blow football, we carried on with the English listening, speaking and written work, this time ’sport and the five senses’.  The students watched some Ashes cricket footage of batters and bowlers. They had to put themselves them into their shoes and think about what they would see, feel, hear taste and touch. Using powerpoint, the group worked very hard on their sentence structure. To see samples of their work, visit the student’s work page. 

The day finished with football, cricket rounders, touch rugby and ‘proper’ cricket with community coach James Mellor. We ignored the rain!
