role-play

Strangers on a train
This is an excellent activity to promote oral fluency practice & specific language practice at the same time.

Get the students to imagine they are strangers in a train compartment - get them sitting opposite each other in groups of four. Elicit what people usually talk about on the train - the weather, where they are going/coming from etc. Tell them you are going to give them a line to memorise & that it's secret - give them out, students memorise & you take them back in.

Then explain what they have to do - to say their lines as naturally as they can in the conversation without the others guessing it is their line. So they have to direct the conversation so that they can say their line naturally, without the others noticing. They must have one conversation & not split into two as the others will miss their lines when they come to say them.

The lines you give them could contain a language item that you have recently been looking at or off-the-wall sentences (eg. My girlfriend sleeps in the garden). I had to do this in a Spanish lesson when I first started learning the languiage & my line was 'yo tampoco' - 'me neither' - so I had to wait for a negative to say my line.

At the end the students then tell each other what they thought were each others' lines. It's an activity that you can use again & again & it's lots of fun!

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. 

Maja Age: 14 years old Country: Poland Nationality: Pole Languages: English, Spanish and Polish Likes: Swimming and dancing Dislikes: Maths and videogames Family: Mum, dad, two sisters and a dog Reason why she moved: Her father’s job

Santiago Age: 15 years old Country: Portugal Nationality: Portuguese Languages: Portuguese, Spanish and English Likes: football and street dance Dislikes: Homework, French Family: A dad and a sister. Reason why he moved: They start a new life

Claire Age: 14 years old Country: US Nationality: American Languages: English and Spanish Likes: Internet and pets Dislikes: Salsa and cooking Family: Grandparents, mum, sister, three pets. Reason why she moved: her grandparents wanted to live in Spain

The new student role-play

This is a role-play activity in which your students practise asking for and giving personal details and directions.

Level: Elementary and above

Description
Role-play is a great way for students to try out their English. Most of my students love having the chance to use their language in a realistic way, and often take the role-play much further than I would have thought possible! The quieter students also come out of themselves, their 'new identities' giving them the confidence to speak.

In this role-play, one student is the receptionist of a language school in London and the other is a new student. Each student has a 'role card' which details the information they need to find out from their partner and also the answers that they will give to their partner.

The 'receptionist' needs to find out the name, age, telephone number etc. of the new student. The 'new student' needs to find out the address and directions to the school from the nearest train stop. The receptionist's role card has a simple map which they must describe to the new student. Registration cards and blank maps are provided for students to complete with the information they find out. (If photocopying is an issue, ask your students to use their own notepads to jot down their answers rather than making these additional cards for them.)
