Provide students with a questionnaire like this one:

Find someone who…

1) has travelled to New York. ________

2) has been on TV. ______

3) has met a famous person. ______

etc….

 

The students are supposed to stand up and go around the classroom asking their classmates until someone has done so and if this is the case, his/her name should appear next to the question. Once a student finds a classmate for each question, the task finishes and the teacher should check if it is so by asking the students whose names appear next to the questions.

A follow-up task could be finding out details about each situation, such as “when did you travel to New York? How did you go there? Who did you go there with?”

The tenses the questions are made in can vary: present perfect, present simple for routines and past simple for definite past time (yesterday/last week/two years ago).

Marisa,

Yes, this is a main course for good language teachers! I’d also suggest that the teacher make sure to put the question and replies on the board, for lower level learners. ex. for above,

Have you …………?
Yes, I have …… / No, I haven’t ……..

You can also play this game with a bingo card of pictures. Students go around and find people who, writing down the name in the box if they say yes and trying to get a bingo, 5 in a row!

Teachers can find a large variety of pre made examples to print and use on EFL Classroom 2.0
