Next Week
In this class speaking activity, students make plans for next week and arrange times and
places to meet other members of the class. Students use the present continuous tense to
talk about definite arrangements in the future. This activity also covers language for talking
about leisure activities.
Before class, make one copy of the worksheet for every student in the class.
Procedure
Give a copy of the worksheet to each student in the class.
Tell the class that this is a page out of their diary, and that they are going to make some
arrangements for next week.
Ask each student to think of ten leisure activities they would like to do next week and to write
them down wherever they like in their diary.
Point out the arrangement already written in their diary as an example, but explain that at
this point they should only write in the activity and leave the spaces marked 'with and 'at
blank.
When they have done that, ask them to go around the class and find someone who is free to
do each of the activities with them. They should find a different person for each activity. They
should ask and answer like this:
Student A: What are you doing on Monday evening?
Student B: Nothing, I'm free.
Student A: Would you like to go swimming with me?
Student B: Yes, that sounds great.
Student A: OK, lets meet at 7.30pm.
or
Student A: What are you doing on Saturday afternoon?
Student B: Im going to the cinema with Terry.
Student A: What about Saturday evening?
Student B: Nothing, I'm free then. etc.
When Students A and B have agreed to do an activity together, they should write one
anothers names and the time they have arranged to meet in the relevant place in their
diaries.
The students repeat the activity until they have found someone to do each of their leisure
activities with.
When everyone has finished, students can tell the class about their plans for next week.
