Telling Lies - Infographic Lessons
The Telling Lies lesson plan is designed for B1+ level ESL students and offers a rich, thought-provoking way to explore the theme of honesty, deception, and human behaviour. Through engaging discussion tasks, data interpretation, vocabulary building, and interactive speaking activities, students reflect on personal experiences while developing fluency and critical thinking.
Using an appealing infographic as a central stimulus, students are guided through activities that prompt them to:
- Discuss personal and cultural attitudes to lying
- Analyse statistics about why and how people lie
- Explore vocabulary related to deception
- Participate in structured debates and reflective conversations
The lesson concludes with an optional video-based homework task to extend learning beyond the classroom. All activities are designed to encourage meaningful communication and provide opportunities to practice new language in context.
This lesson not only builds language skills but also nurtures interpersonal awareness and cultural comparison, making it ideal for learners in diverse, communicative classrooms.
