Asking for personal details...

SPEAKING 

We have some hypothetical new students in class. The teacher is going to pick three students to play the new students and the rest have to ask for their personal details.

This exercise is good for reviewing descriptions, verbs in present simple, have got, etc.

They have to ask simple questions about nationality, personality, likes and dislikes, hobbies, reason why they moved, etc.

Here you have the cards for the hypothetical new students.
