ME IN 12 WORDS!!

My CALC students and I spent part of our first class today trying to get to know each other a little bit!! They learned a few things about me, my life, my family.... "Me in 12 words":

Me in 12 words! from paulokagomez

They did a great job finding out the right questions for the words above.

1. What's my name?

2. When is your birthday?

3. What time do I usually get up?

4. What´s my eldest son´s name?

5. When did I start teaching English at this school?

6. Which sport do I hate the most?

7. Where did I study English?

8. How many children do I have?

9. Where do I live?

10. What do I like doing in my free time?

11. What colour is my car?

12. Do I like my job?

Now I would like my CALC students to write their 12 words (don´t forget: ONLY WORDS!!) in the comments section below. The rest of the class can just try to guess the questions!! Do you feel like playing the game again? 

YOU IN 12 WORDS!!: Write your words in the comments section below!!
