(Toys)
Subject: Humans and the world of work
Cross-curricular links: English language, Humans and their world
Language structures: How are you? - I’m fine/ok/ill.
Time: 15-20 minutes
Materials: yoghurt plastic cups; string
- Each pair of students has two yoghurt plastic cups and a sufficiently long piece of string.
- Connect both cups with the string (make a little hole in the bottom of the cup to put the string through).
- Divide the class into continents (Europe; Asia; Africa; Australia; America). Children will talk to each other on the phone across various continents.
- While one puts the cup to his/her lips and talks, the other holds it by his/her ear and listens. They may have conversations on various topics.
