COMMUNICATIVE ACTIVITES
1. Change Places If You've Got...
Students sit or stand in a circle. You call:
Change places if you've got a brother!
Everyone who has a brother changes places.
Then:
Change places if you've got a pet!
…if you've got a bike!
…if you've got a blue pen!
…if you've got two sisters!
…if you've got a hoodie!
After a few rounds, students become the caller.
2. Memory Detective
Tell students:
Look at your partner for 20 seconds.
Then they turn around or close their eyes.
Ask:
Has Marta got glasses?
Has she got earrings?
Has she got a black T-shirt?
Has she got white trainers?
They answer from memory:
Yes, she has.
No, she hasn't.
You can make it Team A vs Team B.
3. Have You Got...? Elimination
Everyone stands up.
You ask:
Have you got a brother?
Students who answer No, I haven't sit down.
Continue:
Have you got a pet?
Have you got a bike?
Have you got a blue pen?
Have you got more than one cousin?
Continue until one student remains standing.
Then let a student be the teacher and ask the questions.
4. Find Someone Who — No Worksheet
Give them three things to remember, for example:
Find someone who has got a cat.
Find someone who has got two brothers or sisters.
Find someone who has got a bike.
They stand up and ask:
Have you got a cat?
They must remember the names.
After 3–4 minutes, everyone sits down and you ask:
Who has got a cat?
Student:
Lucía has got a cat.
So you naturally move from Have you got...? → Yes, I have → She has got...
5. Two Truths and a Lie
Each student says three sentences:
I've got a brother.
I've got a dog.
I've got a skateboard.
One is false.
The others can ask questions:
Have you really got a dog?
Have you got a big dog?
Then they guess the lie.
This one is more genuinely communicative, because they're learning things about each other.
6. The Have-Got King/Queen
Put two students at the front.
You give them a category:
Things at home
They alternate:
A: I've got a TV.
B: I've got a computer.
A: I've got a sofa.
B: I've got a microwave.
No repetition and no long pauses. The first person who can't think of something loses; another student comes up to challenge the winner.
Change categories: school bag, bedroom, family, clothes, technology, pets.
6. Build a Monster
You start:
My monster has got three eyes.
Student 1 repeats and adds something:
The monster has got three eyes and four arms.
Student 2:
The monster has got three eyes, four arms and two mouths.
Keep going until someone forgets something.
It's basically a memory chain, but they're practising has got repeatedly.
