Activity

  • An adult cuts out cards A and B and gives each partner one card.
  • Review the places and explain the two areas on each card.
  • Keep cards hidden from each other.
  • Ask about the three places shown in the lower area.
  • Answer using the pictures in the top area of your own card.
  • Record your partner’s answers with ticks or crosses.
  • Swap speaking roles, then reveal the cards and check.

Learning Goal
Ask and answer questions about places in a town to complete missing information.

Teacher’s Insight
The upper pictures provide answers about the child’s imaginary town. The lower pictures prompt questions about the partner’s town. Model this distinction orally; independent reading and sentence writing are unnecessary.
