Lead-in

Body art is a divisive issue, which is great if you're looking for a good conversational opener for a lesson on tattoos, art, or unusual behaviour.

1. Copy one sheet for each pair of students, and cut them into two.

2. Put the students into pairs, and distribute a half sheet to each individual student.

3. Focus students' attention on the instructions and emphasise students must discuss their ideas related to the topic.

4. Allow students around five to ten minutes or until the conversation dies down to discuss the topic.

5. Finally elicit responses from some of the students and draw to their attention any appropriate vocabulary or serious language mistakes.
