FOR STUDENTS
Make sure you understand the words in the table. imagine you are meeting someone for the first time. Ask the question ‘How do you spend your time?' In this activity you are going to learn how to keep a conversation going. Student B should answer the question in detail, and student A is expected to ask follow up questions. Use the phrases provided, but try to add your own ideas.
FOR TEACHERS
Give students time to prepare what they are going to say and ask you for any vocabulary they do not understand. Encourage them to fill in each category with the words given as well as the vocabulary they already know. Encourage them to use the phrases provided, but emphasise that they can add their own ideas if they want. Explain that to carry out the task, they should try to find out as much as possible about each other.
They should make notes to help them when they report back to the class. As they interview each other, feed in any language they need in an informal way and refer them to the phrases provided. Do not correct at this stage unless absolutely necessary, as this will interrupt communication. Note down errors with language used for analysis at the end of the task.
