WEEKEND WARMERS

• Stand up in front of the poster which best describes your weekend
  

  
  
  
  The T gets a general idea and knows beforehand who did not enjoy. These can also be used to express an opinion about an issue or show your position in a debate

• Weekend VERY BRITISH phrases
• Statements that best decribe your weekend and students memorise: they get used to certain expressions or idiomatic phrases that they would not naturally use. They have to repeat it to other classmates over and over again and mates check

COLLOQUIAL LANGUAGE

• Stds get the definition + history for an idiom. The teacher reads out loud the idioms and students raise their hand if they think it’s their idiom. When all stds have their idioms, they have to explain to partners.
• 

  Each student gets a short dialogue where an idiomatic expression is missing + an idiomatic phrase that does not match. Move around and find the mate who has the phrase.
