Preparing teenagers for exams like the FCE etc can be difficult. The materials in the book are not always as exciting as you or your students might like. Recently I have tried to make practicing speaking more enjoyable for my students. This is the second of a number of posts dedicated to practicing speaking.
Activity Time: 10 – 15 minutes +
Materials required: Copy of the powerpoint

Method
1. Organise the class in to groups of 2 or 3
2. Play the slides below. Tell the students that they must choose a maximum of 8 objects they would bring and ask them to write a reason why the have chosen that item.
3. After the groups have spoken about what they would bring and why, ask them to consider which group is best prepared.
