Speaking Activity: Create Your Own School

(TESOL Worksheets--Speaking)
This activity was inspired by watching a colleague's lesson.  I adapted slightly what he did, and designed my own intro to it.
My colleague in turn was adapting a lesson from the Speaking Extra (A) textbook.  But this is my adaptation of his adaptation of the lesson, so it's significantly altered from the original lesson in Speaking Extra.
The students discuss in pairs the 3 different schools, and then create their own school.  (The final stage, although not on the PowerPoint, is for each group to present their school to the class, and the class votes on which school is best.)
All the information on Bob Jones University comes from this website here.  For the purposes of not confusing my Pre-Intermediate students with too many details, I've simplified some of the rules.  For example Students may not play video games rated above E10 (games meant for 10 year olds and older) or a game that contains graphic blood, gore, sensual or demonic themes, violent first-person shooting, suggestive dress, bad language, or rock music becomes "students may not play video games".
PowerPoint on Google here (drive, slides, pub) and Worksheet on Google here (drive, docs, pub).
