Appearance Chart

The Appearance Chart is a structured visual reference designed to support students in learning, recognising and confidently using vocabulary related to physical appearance in the target language.

By presenting appearance-related vocabulary clearly and consistently in the target language, this chart provides repeated exposure that supports accurate recognition, description and retrieval during everyday classroom instruction and speaking activities.

Designed for classroom teachers, specialist language teachers and homeschoolers, this chart functions as an instructional tool by keeping appearance vocabulary visible so students can actively use the target language when describing people and making comparisons.
