9 I Have Your Suggestion

The aim of this activity is to have students interact with one another in order to find the best suggestion
to change their negative moods. The activity is expected to help students improve their reading and
speaking skills.

Materials and Preparation
Strips of paper on the activity sheet on page 125
As a preparation, the teacher photocopies the activity sheet as many as the number of the students and
cuts out the strips of paper.

Procedure
1 Hand out the strips of paper to each student randomly.
2 Ask students to read their strips and group themselves as the “Statements Group” and the
“Suggestions Group”.
3 Make students in the Statements Group walk around the class and read their statements out in
turns. Tell the students in the Suggestion Group that they will listen to the statements and reply to
them as “I have your suggestion.” when they hear their related statement. Inform them that the pair
who can find their match faster and accurate will be the winner.
4 Finally, have the successful pairs read their dialogs aloud.

a context in which they will be able to use their listening, speaking, reading and writing skills.

Materials and Preparation

the worksheet. Explain them that they are going to find out where they usually come across the
instructions they hear.
