Would you agree that certain words in the English language are typically used to describe women, while other words are used to describe men? To warm up, English language learners tell their partner about what they did over the weekend. Then, they take a list of vocabulary words and decide whether they are used to describe a man or a woman. Note: some of the words are not entirely appropriate for the classroom (e.g. toy boy, beer belly).
