 Creative writing activity for the ESL classroom, cultural ambassadors. Students choose something unique to their country or culture, and write a description of that thing as though they were introducing it to someone who had never heard of it. The language points used for these explanations can be as simple or as complex as you want them, to be depending on the language level of your students. If you really want to get in depth and creative, everyone in class could work together to compile a cultural guidebook. Everyone writes one description, and then provides drawings or photos to a company they're writing. You can put all of these together later on paper or online.
