Description of activity
Students will work in pairs/groups to role-play a shopping transaction in an imaginary clothing store. They must choose some items that would be suitable to wear to a birthday party. Students will use an assessment checklist as a guide during preparation for the role-play and as a means of providing feedback to other students about their performances.
Context
This activity occurs in the middle of a unit of work that students undertake midway through Stage 5. Students are organising a birthday party for a friend. They have made plans for the party that have included sending out invitations and organising what to bring to the party. They have learnt vocabulary relating to clothing and have created a promotional flyer for an imaginary clothing store. They have participated in activities that have enabled them to internalise structures needed to state opinions. They now use their promotional flyers to role-play shopping situations.
