Students
roleplay in groups according to the scenario on Tasksheet
10. A useful prop for this roleplay activity
is a microphone. Microphones can be made from leftover
tubes of gladwrap cut in half, with a ball of paper
stuck in one end to create the shape of a studio mike.
Students form groups and choose an overseas city. The
teacher can play the reporter in the studio as a rehearsal,
then students in each group can take on that role. Another
student plays the reporter on location in that city
and the others can be local 'people in the street'.
