Information Gap 1 - Looking for a Job Get the students working in pairs. Give one person of each pair the Student A page and the other the Student B page. There are four different jobs being advertised in the local paper. However, there are ten gaps on each page. Students should ask each other questions to find out the information that is missing from their page, then write it down, asking for spellings as necessary. Encourage them to communicate verbally to get the answers, rather than letting each other look at their pages! When all the students have finished, bring the group back together and ask checking questions to elicit the answers, as well as to find out how much the students have understood about the other material in the adverts.

In addition, I have included a teacher guide which explains how you can use these Photo Flashcards in 31 different teaching activities in the classroom. They are easy to organise, lots of fun and will improve your students vocabulary and memory skills. You could print off and laminate the photos to make an interesting, eye-catching display about New Year's Eve. The students could also take the laminated photos and sort them into different New Year's Eve activities. The students can then discuss what they think each one was saying or thinking. The photos could also be used as prompts for creative writing, factual writing or descriptive writing.
