The People You Meet
In this teaching activity, students work in groups of eight. Each student is given an identity
card and a worksheet. The students ask and answer personal information questions in order
to complete their student worksheets with information about the other students' identities.
Before class, make one copy of the identity cards for every group of eight students. Make
one student worksheet for each student.
Procedure
Give each student a copy of the student worksheet.
Draw their attention to the first square. Students must write down the questions they need to
ask to find out the personal information on their worksheet.
Give the students an example for the first question, e.g. What's your name? Then, have the
students work in pairs to complete the other questions.
When everyone has finished, check the questions with the class.
Next, put the students into groups of eight. If you have extra students, just make groups
smaller.
Give each student in the group an identity card. Tell the students that they are now the
person on their identity card.
Explain that they are going to go around the class and fill in their student worksheet by
asking one another questions in order to complete the information about each person.
Encourage students to check spelling by asking How do you spell that? Where appropriate.
Now ask the students to go around the class and complete their student worksheets with
information about the other students identities.
They must not show their identity card or worksheet to the other students in the class.
