I have just been blind sided by my boss - he wants me to come up with 10 different situational role plays for a special class of middle schoolers to memorize. ( vacation , introductions, food, shaopping, jobs, korea, school are some of the topics required)
Anybody know of a good online resource for such things - or happen to have any such things available to share????
Cheers |

10 situations, 8-10 lines for each situation. 2 person roll-plays.
for example:
Shopping -
1. Clerk: how may I help you?
Cust.: I am looking for some blue jeans please.
2. Clerk: They are over here. What size do you need?
Cust: I think I wear a size 36.
3. Clerk: Here, try these on.
Cust: Do you have a fitting room?
4. Clerk: Yes, it is over there.
Cust: Thank you.
5. Clerk: Did they fit?
Cust: Yes they did. How much are they?
6. Clerk: They are 20,000 won.
Cust: I'll take 2 pairs please.
7. Clerk: That'll be 40,000 won.
Cust: Here you are.
8. Clerk: Thank you. Please come again.
Cust: Thank you. Goodbye.

Sorry I don't have any of those resources, but if you're not able to find any I would suggest for each scenario have print outs of 8 total lines of dialogue that they can memorize to suppliment whatever they want to say. That way if their mind goes blank they can have something to fall back on. I've seen it work pretty well in several classes. Props are always good too. I've seen this work well with "going to the store", "getting on and riding a bus" (have other students sit in rows like they are on a bus), etc
haha ttompatz beat me to the punch and he came up with a good example. All hail ttompatz!! King of Dave's job-related help |

| See if your boss will let you stretch out the activity by having the students first choose situations themselves and then write their own dialogue. This means that you would have to correct what they've written but they would be more connected to the role-play since they designed it themselves. If your students have limited writing skills this, of course of course said the carrot to the horse, wouldn't work. Mega dittos on props being cool. |
