1º Choose two articles related to the same topic (eg. music). Teacher dictates some personal questions related to music. In pairs, students discuss their ideas.
2º Students in pairs are given two different articles(they can’t see each other’s articles). They have to draw what their articles are about. Once they have finished, swap their drawings and try to guess by the drawings and asking questions.
