Students work in pairs and open the corresponding pages below.
On each page, students are presented with five sentences. During Student One's turn, he or she will read one sentence to Student Two. Student Two will listen and then rephrase the sentence, using one of the verbs studied in Grammar 2-2. Student One then checks that Student Two's answer matches the one on Student One's page.
If Student Two has no idea, Student One should help Student Two by providing him or her the verb in the answer.
