2. I Am History 
Students get to pick a favorite historical character and develop a speech as if 
they were the person. The class will guess who the character is. 
The Activity:
Each student gets two minutes to talk as the character of their choice, dropping plenty 
of hints as to their identity. They’ll get to mention the character’s credentials, 
accomplishments, trivia and the anecdotes credited to them. 
Because the task is arranged as a first person 
speech, your students will get plenty of practice in 
first person sentence construction and grammar. 
This first person point of view is vital in any 
target language because it’s what native speakers 
use to talk about themselves and their experiences. 
At the end of the speech, you ask the class 
who the person standing in front of them is. 
Brownie points for the student who guessed 
correctly, as well as the student who gave the 
speech.

3. News Reporter 
Students pick a news event to report on, then act as if they’re an anchor or field 
reporter telling the news to the class. The activity requires students to don their 
reporter hats and give a detailed account of an interesting event. 
The Activity:
Each student has from 45 seconds to 2 minutes to deliver the news. They could either 
be anchors pretending to sit in a studio or field reporters delivering the news from the 
thick of it. 
The activity is set up so that it not only 
hones the speaking aptitude of students, 
but also gives them a peek into the 
storytelling and information-delivering 
aspect of the language. Reporting the 
news is essentially like telling a story, and 
telling a story is one of the most important 
social functions of a language. 
The activity also enriches each student’s practical vocabulary, by introducing 
them to words that might be new to them but are common phrases and expressions 
for the specific beat they’re reporting on.
