Some of the ideas on these pages are from personal resources and others are from other teachers and ESOL websites and are chosen for their relative merit for teaching IELTS.  You are welcome to copy any of these and I do not claim any ownership to them.  I have only listed to date ideas which I have used and which worked well in class.

Choose a Painting Prepare 4 sets of 6 pictures of paintings from famous artists.  With the students in 4 groups tell them that in a hypothetical situation the school has been awarded a prize and can choose one of these very famous expensive paintings for the school library area.  The students should study their set of 6 pictures and discuss the merits of each and agree on just one of them.  They should then switch to the next set and do the same again and also for the other 2 sets.  Once all the students have a choice of 4 paintings, one from each set,  they should then eliminate 3 of them and end up with just one choice.  The groups should them combine and discuss which will be the picture chosen and why.   Great for descriptive content using colours, feeling and conection.
