The Housing Repair Dialog Card Game contains teaching instructions and student handouts for repair problems and repairman names, plus 8 card decks on different-coloured card stock. (You need 2 decks per group of 3 to 5 students.)
To play, students take turns asking another student in the group what the problem is. For example, S1 says, Hi Lee, what’s the matter? and S2 states a problem based on a card they have: My sink is leaking. If S1 has the same card, they say, Me too! But if he doesn’t have the same card, he must give appropriate advice: Maybe you should call a plumber. There are dialog suggestions for Levels 1 to 3, along with substitution suggestions for giving advice and responding to problems. (For literacy, we recommend using the dialog from our Housing for Literacy binder).
Objective: oral fluency in identifying repair problems and giving advice.
