PART 2 --- Ask the name

While students have learned how to do the simple greeting, teacher may start the lesson and play the activity with greeting someone, including asking and replying one another’s names. Teacher could teach students how to greet people in the morning, afternoon, at night or before people go to bed, and how to ask other’s names or reply themselves’; later, teacher could have well practice with them. Then students can be requested to sit in a circle and begin the activity. But students should remember to change the way of greeting in time order and their classmates’ names. For example:

Good morning
Good afternoon
Good evening
Good night
What’s your name?
My name is _____.

The first student has to say “Good morning! My name is Amy. What’s your name?” Then the second student replies the question “Good morning! My name is Bob.”, and ask the student sitting next to him “Good afternoon! My name is Bob. What’s your name?” So the third student replies in the same way, but has to change the greeting into “Good evening” when he asks the next one. And the rest can do it in the same manner. As you do the activity clockwise for the first time, you can play it again counterclockwise or in other kind of sequence in which everyone can participate. Finally, teacher has to ask the same question to the students.
