Unit 4 : Lesson 1: Protecting and maintaining your home

Oral practice — in pairs

It is important to meet your new neighbors as soon as possible. They can give you information about your neighborhood and your community.

Find a partner. Pretend that you have just moved into your partner’s neighborhood. Ask for information about the topics on the following page. You can use expressions like, “Do you know where ___?” “Can you tell me about ___?” “Where do you ___?” “When does ___?” “Are there any ___?” Record the information. When you have finished, have your partner interview you about your neighborhood.
