Let’s go out tonightA role-play for an evening out.

The Situation:• You and your friend have nothing to do. You decide it would be fun

to go out for museum, and then to a restaurant.• Look at the different activities and choose which place you would like

to visit. Then look at the map and choose a restaurant.

• Ask each other: • What place?• Where is it?• What is showing there?• What does it feature?• What is the admission fee?• How do you get from the show to the restaurant?

• Try to make the conversation as long as you can, and add your own words to make it more real.
