Unit 4 Teachers notes and key

How fashionable are you?
Activity

Two teams

Aim

Students learn/revise vocabulary related to fashion.

Time

1520 minutes

Number of students Any

Before class

Photocopy enough worksheets for each student in the class.

Procedure
1 Divide the class into team A and team B. Give out a worksheet to each student in
both teams. Students select a secretary from their team who will write the answers
to the questions.

2 Set a time limit. Students discuss the answers to the questions and the secretary
writes them down as quickly as possible. When the time is up, stop the students.

3 Explain the rules. Each team has the chance to win points by supplying answers to
questions 120. In some questions, a set of answers is required and, to win a point,
teams must be able to supply a complete set of answers (either 2, 3 or 4). Each
team takes it in turns to answer the questions. If a team gets the question correct,
they win a point. If a team fails to answer a question correctly, the other team can
try to answer, and, if they are correct, they win a point. The team with the most
points at the end of the quiz wins.
