“Giving Directions” - speaking game
Shared by Anonymous
- The idea of this task is information gap. Students work in pairs. Each person gets a different handout with different buildings marked on the map. Ss job is to exchange information in order to complete their maps. They should ask Excuse me, how can i get to…? questions. Some buildings (e.g. Railway Station) are marked on both maps to give students some point of reference.
Note: You have to mark X on all the handouts by hand. Make sure it’s in the same place on both copies (Student A and Studet B) as the activity won’t work otherwise. You can use this activity multiple times by changing the position of X.
Procedure
- Look at the map below.
- These buildings are not marked on your map, but they are marked on your friend’s map.
- You are at “X”. Ask your friend how to get there and mark the ten buildings on your map.
- What question will you ask? What phrases will you use to answer the question?
