Divide the class into two groups. Each team choose a name and a leader.

STEP 1: Write the teams’ names and their scores on the blackboard. In the first step the pupils should talk about their friends. However, you should first give them examples. Help them by asking the questions:

Have you got a friend?

Is it a boy/girl?

What is his/her name?

How old is s/he?

How is s/he?
Give them a plan with five sentences.

I’ve got a friend.

He is a boy./She is a girl.

His name’s Amir./Her name’s Alisa.

S/he’s seven.

She’s OK.
STEP 2: Give the pupils a set of cards on different topics: toys, school things, vegetables, fruits. Explain to the pupils that they should show the cards in turns. The other team should give two sentences about the object. They can use different structures. Remind to the pupils the structures they know and which they can use. For example:

1) This is a balloon./ I’ve got a balloon./It’s a balloon.

2) It’s red./ It’s big./I like it.
