This activity is a great audio activity for many learners. You can choose a category to work on. The visual picures are great in this example. As working with adults, be mindful of appropriate images, not too cartoonish. 

1. Follow lesson as described.

2. You can take this very slow, modify if needed. Talk about category, what other things can be transportation?

3. How many have seen ....an airplane, been on an airplane, etc

4. Have learners point to an item on the photo, describe it.

Included in this lesson plan, is a scavenger hunt form,for online, or in classroom. Learners had a great time with this, sharing what they had to all online.
