About Movers speaking activities

At Movers (A1), children can describe pictures in short sentences, tell a simple story with support and talk about themselves and their daily lives. They use the present continuous, past simple and Movers vocabulary covering places, the weather, health and free time.

Activities mirror the four parts of the Movers Speaking test: finding differences between two pictures, telling a short story from a sequence of pictures, choosing the odd one out and explaining why, and answering personal questions. Worksheets provide the pictures, prompts and model language for each task.

Teacher copies include model answers and useful phrases. Print or download the PDF, or display the worksheet online through a class link with no student account needed.
