hi!
maybe they can write about their school, class or even their own neighbourhood.
my students wrote about themselves, and then they wrote about each member of their family and a friend.
if you want they can write about what they would like to be in the future and why.
i hope this will help you

Hi there!
Maybe this will help:
* house: sts draw and describe their dream house,
* family: sts think of an imaginary family (funny, horrible, unusual ...) and describe it,
* clothes: they create their own school uniform and describe it.
Good luck! Ana

Hi!
There are some interesting ideas here:
http://www.mes-english.com/vkeypals.php
I find the superhero project specially appealing. They can write about all the topics they �ve talked about throughout the whole school year. And there �s a plus: if you find some really interesting projects, you can publish them at mes-english for all your students to see. They usually like that part. :)
Hope it helps!

Hi, inspiration! . My ss have a compulsory oral miniproject every two months, more or less. The way they present their project is free but under three conditions:
-They must use new words related to the topic we�ve been working with.
-They mustn�t read their work, the goal is: fluency, creativity, accuracy �and having fun while using the language.
-All the members of the team (up to 4) must speak.
We�ve worked with food, family, leisure activities� And all of us have enjoyed watching some wonderful drama sessions(at a restaurant, parents vs teenagers, etc), surveys on the topic, ppt made by the ss, recipes (with examples of food made by them), some musical videos�Everything with their proper explanation. They search for extra information and new vocabulary. I check their progress and help them ( if they want because sometimes they love keeping a secret about a surprise for the day of the presentation). Their effort is greater than the one they show when studying for an exam!!!! It�s a wonderful experience and you let them be autonomous.
Hope it�s useful ,
