On the document, each student needs to add 4 pictures (appropriate pictures) that they find on the internet, of people in different contexts. In your book, write a 'personal pronoun + ko' sentence about what is happening in each of the pictures on the google doc. Once everyone has completed their sentences, you will sit in a group and take turns at reading aloud one of your sentences, the rest of the group must then try to guess which picture you have written the sentence about. The first person to guess the correct picture, gets a point. The winner of this activity will be the person with the most points at the end, and they will get a prize.
