Giving Advice with Dice
Let's Roll: A fun easy warm-up to a lesson on giving advice. Requires dice and must be printed in colour. Be sure to explain the grammar first. The goal is to give advice for all 6 questions. The first to do so is the winner.
Advanced classes: To build on this activity you can use the attached dialog. You can also create problems for students. Group Activity: The group that can comes up with the best advice is the winner. Mixed Pair Work: You can give each student a small card with a problem on it and have them walk around and ask for advice. Later, review the advice that was given. With upper level students this can be interesting and sometimes really funny.
Example problems:
I can't sleep.
I have a headache.
I have a bald spot.
I don't have a girlfriend/boyfriend
I want to make friends
ETC.
