Students write a headline about their week or a 3 word opinion of a topic.
Give students number 1 or 2
1s stand in the middle circle
2s stand int he outer circle.
They face each other and talk about their headline and ask questions
after 1 minute 2s move clockwise to a new partner.
2 Guided dialogue
Students are given unformed sentences using the language they have learnt.
what/you/do
I/Karate
They have to form full sentences. This can be done as a group or whole class activity.
Ask students to write their own dialogue in pairs or groups.
3 Barometer
Write numbers 1 to 5 left to right across the room.
1 Means completely disagree
5 means completely agree\
The other numbers are for mixed opinions.
Show controversial statements, give students 30 seconds to think and move to what they think.
Ask students why?
This is great for starting debates, meta-cognition and using linkers.
4 Describe and draw\
Students work in pairs back to back.
1 student has a picture and the other has paper.
Student A tells student what to draw and student B draws it.
They then swap. This engages listening too and is great for new vocabulary.
