This is an activity for groups of three, which is a really good way of giving dull information to the class. The activity has 3 sheets (part a, b and c). put the students into groups and they have to use the information from their partners sheets to complete their own. NO COPYING! They have to talk to each other, really good for EAL students as it uses speaking, listening, reading and writing. If you like, please leave a comment.

Two-Way Gap Fills are a great way of giving students large amounts of information without just giving them a hand out, or boring them with talk and chalk. Put the students into pairs.

This mean they have to talk to each other; therefore student use reading, speaking, listening and writing skills. Theory included in the activity include; Job Enrichment, Job Enlargement, Delegation, Job Rotation, Empowerment and Team Working.

Green lines are money, red is assets). Enjoy. Comment if you like, or can think of an improvement
