Two Word Conversations

I use this simple activity as a warm-up, a time filler and a closing activity.

Lower level students especially like it, because there is not a lot of pressure for accuracy.  Students can practice intonation.  The conversations usually take a turn for the silly.

A:  Weekend?
B:  Good.
A:  Relax?
B:  Yes.
A:  Beach?
B:  No.
A:  Why not?
B:  Sick kids.
A:  Better now?
B:  So-so.
A:  That's good.

Depending on time, I have each partner start a conversation.
