In a “Find Someone Who” activity, students engage in a speaking exercise where they seek out classmates who match given descriptions. Each student receives a list of statements and must ask their peers questions based on these statements. For example, if the statement is “Find someone who is going to visit their grandmother this weekend,” the student must find a classmate who fits that description, note their name, and share the information with the group, possibly asking for additional details related to the statement.
This “Find Someone Who” activity is designed to practice using Be Going To.
You can also encourage your students to ask follow-up questions.
Example:
Student A: Are you going to visit your grandmother this weekend?
Student B: Yes, I am going to visit my grandmother on Saturday.
Student A: That sounds nice. What are you going to do together?
Student B: We’re going to have lunch together and then go for a walk in the park. Are you going to visit your grandmother this weekend?
Student A: No, I’m not going to visit my grandmother this weekend. I’m going to study for my exam.
