Procedure

1 Give each student a worksheet. Ask them to find a suggestion for each problem and write it down in the suggestion
column.
2 After students have completed their tasks, get them to work in groups of four.
3 Have them discuss their suggestions for each problem in order to reach an agreement on a possible solution and
write it in the solution column.
4 When the group discussion time is over, ask the groups to share their solutions with the class. Get them to vote for
the best possible solution to each problem.

2 Excellent Advice

With this communicative activity, students will be able to describe problems and offer solutions. They will also be able to
improve all four language skills.

Materials and Preparation

Copy and cut out the worksheet on page 176 for each group of four students.

Procedure

1 Have students work in groups of four and give each student a corresponding card.
2 Describe the task. Students ask their partners for advice about the problems on their cards and write down the advice
they receive.
3 First, they pair up with the student sitting next to them. After the pairs talk about all their problems and note down
the pieces of advice, they change partners and repeat the process. So, each student talks to three people and notes
down three different pieces of advice for each of their problems.
4 At the end of the activity, get them to have a group feedback session. Ask them to share their favorite piece of advice
for each problem by giving their reasons.
