Final activity

Materials: handout for each group + dice + counter

Time: 15 minutes

Goals: to ask and answer ‘like’ questions & use adjectives correctly; Skills: Speaking

Instructions:

You play the game in their teams of two and take turns to throw the dice

• If a pair lands on a square with a prompt, the student who threw the dice forms the question and the other student gives an answer. 
  
• If they both get it right, they move forward one square. 
  
• If they get either the question or answer wrong, their turn ends, and play moves on to the other team.
  

Extra: If you use Bonus Words and Phrases from the middle of the page correctly in answers → they get to move forward two squares, instead of one (+ cross the word/phrase off)
