Discussion: Your mission: numbers at the market

3 discussion questions

• Mission: I am a fruit seller. Buy THREE things with numbers — how many you want, ask the price, and say how much money you give me. Use: "I'd like five, please.", "How much is it?", "Here is twenty euros." (Success = three quantities + understand my total + give the right money. Tutor: play the seller and say prices clearly!)
• Second take: the tricky pairs! I say numbers — 13 or 30, 14 or 40, 15 or 50 — and you write them down. Then you say them and I write. Who gets more right?
• Compare with your first try at the start. Which pair was hard before? Say your age, your house number, and one price from your week — all in English.
