7 Spin the Wheel

This activity enables students to talk about things that need to be done. It will also help them practice their listening and
speaking skills.

Materials and Preparation

Make enough copies of the worksheet on page 194 for each group of three students.

Procedure

1 Put students into groups of three and give them a worksheet.
2 Describe the task. Students put a pencil in the middle of the wheel on their worksheet. They take turns spinning the
pencil and answering the question the pencil points to.
3 When a student spins the pencil on the wheel and answers the corresponding question, the other members of the
group ask further questions to get more information. After answering the question as fully as possible, s/he asks the
same question to her/his partners.
4 If the pencil points to a question that has already been answered, students should continue spinning the pencil until
it points to a new question.
5 The game finishes when all the questions have been answered.
6 Get some feedback from the groups.

8 Get It Done

This activity enables students to talk about things needed to be done using the causative verbs. It also encourages them to
improve their listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills.

Materials and Preparation

Get enough copies of the verb chart on page 195 beforehand.

Procedure

1 Divide the students into groups of four and write the groups’ names on the board.
2 Give each group a copy of the verb chart.
3 Ask students to choose ten verb groups and form correct sentences.
E.g.
• Brian let me pay for his snack.
4 The group that finishes first starts reading the sentences they’ve formed.
5 Other groups listen to the sentences carefully and decide whether the sentences are correct or not. Sentences
should be correct and make sense.
6 The group who reads their sentences gets 10 points for each correct answer. And other groups that give the correct
response (whether the sentence is correct or not) get 5 points for each correct response.
7 The group with the highest point becomes the winner.
