Look at the two pictures on this page.

Try to say something about them to tell what is happening. Then ask two students to describe the pictures to the class. Correct the sentences if they’ve made some mistakes.

Read the instructions for Activity I to the students. Be sure they know what to do. Go over the five questions with them and choose five students to answer them individually. Then ask them to work in pairs, discussing the five questions. The answers will vary. Tell them not to look at the reading and give the answers by themselves before they begin. As students work, walk around the classroom, listen to them and offer any help they may need.

When all the pairs finish discussing, ask one or two pairs to ask and answer the questions. The others listen to them to see if they’ve made any mistakes and help them to correct their sentences.
