Stage 3 - Elicit ideas of different types of parties from the students, e.g. birthday, end-of-term. Students work in groups of four or five. Each group decides what sort of party they are at. - Students act out the roleplay in their groups. Remind students to include their false information in their conversations with other people at the party. Go round and monitor the activity as the students are working, but do not interrupt students’ fluency. Make a note of any general language problems to go over with the class afterwards.

Each group tells the class what they think the false information was for each student in their group. The student then tells them if they are correct, and if they are not correct gives them the answer.
