Prepared and planed classroom activities for ESL students are very important. Students not only listen to our speech but also participate actively. Their involvement aims to strengthen the exposure to the language-learning target. Here are some activities that involve students’ tasks.
1. Doing interview
Students interview their classmates, other students from different classes or teachers and school members. They are allowed to work out. They can interview their other students in the sport field, canteen, or school office. Teachers had better divide the students into groups. Ask a student to be an interviewer and others records and write the dialogues. Here are some tips for teachers to arrange this activity.

· Give score to students’ work.
2. Observation or simple research.
This task is good for working in-group. Students with visual learning style will enjoy this activity. The observation or research objects can be varied.
