- Ss then ask their team-mates the same questions and count the coincidences. The team which guesses the most answers wins.
- Jigsaw reading with Real conditional structure.
T reads aloud the text, then gives out the parts of the text to Ss. After listening to the text Ss put the sentences in order using Real conditional structures. Then each group reads their texts in front of the class.
