1 Teacher's Notes This discussion exercise requires the printable resource. Model activity first for ss. After ss have finished, nominate ss for answers. • Cut up the cards (one set for each group) and place in a pile face down on the desk in front of the students in groups of three A, B, C. • Students should then take it in turns to turn over the cards and ask one member of the group the question. (A asks B, B asks C, C asks A, and so on.) • Try to make sure that the student asking the question doesn’t show the other student the card - to practise their listening. • The member of the group neither asking nor answering a question should ask a question for more information that they come up with (E.g. if A asks B a question, C asks B a question for more information. If C asks A a question, B asks a follow up question to A, and so on.) • Circulate and make note of any lexical or grammatical difficulties for board review after the activity.
