2 Dream date
Aim: To practise agreeing and disagreeing; to revise vocabulary for describing people.
Interaction: Groups of four
Exercise type: Discussion
Time: 15–20 minutes
Language: That’s exactly what I think. To be honest, I don’t think that’s true.
Materials: One set, cut up, per group.
Instructions: (1) Draw Ss’ attention to the Speak Out box on page 10 and write the
phrases for agreeing and disagreeing on the board. Revise and clarify any of the phrases
as necessary. (2) Put Ss into groups of four and hand out the set of cards. Tell them they
work for a dating agency, and it is their job to match men and women who they think will
get on well. (3) Go through one match as an example, e.g. I think Lisa Sandwell will
get on well with Sam Tye because neither of them really care about fashion. Ask Ss to
respond, either agreeing or disagreeing with your statement. Remind Ss to use the phrases
for agreeing and disagreeing. (4) Ss discuss the people in their groups. Tell them they
should come up with at least two or three matches that they are happy with. (5) Once
the discussions are finished, ask one student from each group to tell the class about their
matches, and to justify them. Encourage other Ss to ask follow-up questions and to agree/
disagree with what is said. Praise correct usage of phrases for agreeing and disagreeing and
correct as necessary.
