This is just one of many ways your students can communicately introduce themselves.
Give each student a slip of paper. Ask them to write their name and two things they like (or you can switch this to suit your class – like from? / Nationality? job? etc…).
Next, students stand up and introduce themselves to each other.
Hi, I’m ….. and I like …… and ……. Both students state and then switch their pieces of paper.
Next, they introduce the last person, pointing to the person as they say, “Hi, I’m …. and I like …. and ….. This is (pointing) ….. , he/she likes…. and ……….. Switch papers again and continue.
Lots of fun and not easy to do (to remember the names).

Excuse me there are mistakes through my sentences: read “I am not satisfied”, and “there is no effeciency”

I know it isn’t easy Adama. And don’t worry about mistakes – that’s how we learn! So they are very important!
