Photocopiable activity on p.209

You will need one sheet for each student.
Tell students they are going to guess what time different
classmates do different things throughout the day. Revise
ways of telling the time with students. If you have a clock
you can use, set it to different times (e.g. six o’clock; quarter
to six; quarter past six; half past six) and elicit what the time
is. Otherwise, draw clock pictures on the board.
Demonstrate the activity. Say: I think Akiko has breakfast at
8 o’clock, and write this on your sheet. Then say to Akiko:
I think you have breakfast at 8 o’clock, and elicit Yes, that’s
right. or No, that’s wrong, I have breakfast at … . If you
were correct, put a tick next to your sentence; if wrong,
put a cross, and write in the correct time. Do a few more
examples with different students.
Tell students that they should write sentences about
different members of the class. If the class is small, they
should write a sentence about everybody at least once
before using a classmate a second time.
When they have completed their sentences, they should
mingle and find out how many of their guesses are correct
by talking to their classmates as you demonstrated earlier.
Take feedback as a class. Find out who had the most right
guesses.
