CITY CAR BAN DEBATE AND ROLEPLAY
This role play requires three groups - a group of residents for the car ban, a group of residents against the car ban and a group of local politicians.
The groups prepare and present their arguments to the local government, who must provide a solution.
Great speaking activity for lessons about environment, healthy living, transport etc.

True or False
This worksheet is good fun to get students speaking and can be adapted to nearly all levels. Students have to complete the questions with 3 false answers. Their classmates have to guess by question and answer which the three false replies are. I find this works best in small groups of 3 or 4. Enjoy!

Compose a song / poem
This is a set of rhyming word groups from which students compose a song or a poem. These word groups introduce new vocabulary and are used as a guide (I let students add other words if they like). They work in small groups and compose a song or a poem which they then read to the class. My students love this.
