In this Google Slides lesson, your multilingual middle or high school ESL students will tell their personal narratives in speaking and in a storyboard about where they're from and how they came here. It's a great beginning of the year activity to learn more about each other. It also includes: -Teaching tips at the bottom of slides -Annotated language objective -Verb "be" introduction -Speaking activities -Vocabulary -Writing and speaking with sentence frames -Exit ticket and self-assessment -2 music videos (one about "home"- "This Must Be the Place" by the Talking Heads and "Therefore I Am" by Billie Eilish for "be" practice.) Let me know if you have any questions, and if you enjoy this lesson please leave me some feedback and a rating!
