You probably practice sport but, even if you don't, you surely watch it on TV. You are not a sporty person? No problem! You must know who are Messi, Nadal, Gasol ... and that's the only thing you need to do this project.
tasks
- Make groups of three or four.
- Choose a sportsperson.
- Find information about them (personal information and professional life) and some pictures.
- Think of two other sportspeople who play the same sport, and find pictures of them.
- Make a poster, a video or a powerpoint with your information. You must include:
-
two timelines, one with personal information (when and where they were born, where they live, if they are married or have a boy/girlfriend, if they have got any children, etc.) and one for his/her professional live (when they started playing that sport, which teams they have played for, etc.)
TIP: if you google "timeline" and look for pictures, you'll see lots of examples.
-
a map showing some of the places where your sportperson has won a tournament, a race, etc.
-
pictures (each member of the group must describe one picture along the presentation, using past tense verbs).
TIP: revise how to describe a picture and include all elements (general overview, move around the picture, etc.).
-
comparison with two other sportspeople (using comparative and superlative sentences.)
- Write a script and hand it to your teacher.
- Present your project to the class (presentation tips).

All the project is in past or only the pictures?
All the project. You have to talk about a person's background :-)
