Where+can+I+buy+what?

**2. Aims:**
- __talking practice__: simple shopping situations - __vocabulary__: types of shops, items to buy

**3. How many students?**
- not less than 10 to 12

4. How long does it take?
- about 10 minutes

5. Materials
- 2 types of cards: A - customers and B - shop assistants - size: A6 to A5 format - A (customer cards): photos of items (cut them out of catalogues and brochures; glue them on the blank card) - B (shop assistants): names of shops - for odd numbers of students, provide more item cards than shop cards



5. Performance
- Distribute the cards randomly (one per student). - Students hide their cards and walk around, practising the following language (examples):

I'm looking for ... I'm trying to find ... Do you carry ... || Yes, we have! I'm afraid, there's nothing I can do for you. I'm sorry, we are a book shop. We don't carry shoes. You could go to / Why don't you try it at a shoe shop? ||
 * **A - customers:** || **B -** **shop assistants:** ||
 * Have you got ...

(It might be much fun if someone asks for tools at a baker's.)
