The Great British Picture Quiz

Today we had  a great opportunity to show in teams how much we know about the British people, places and food. This is an absolutely fabulous idea how to revise what students have learned. As you can see from my photos, all you need is to prepare some photos and let students decide and recognise the famous people places, food, etc.
There's also a handout to go with the task and to be filled in. Our team did really well- we recognised most of the things! Good for us- for me, Marta and Jitka!!!

  1. It was not that easy for me. I recognized flapjack, full British breakfast and scones, wasn`t so sure about others! Landmarks were easy, only what is between the Tower and Tower Bridge? Roman wall?
