2.   Now:

  • One person plays the first role, the other the second.
  • One of you follows along using the text, the other without it.
  • Then, change roles.
  • Finally, act out the conversation without using the text.

The objective is to have the same or a similar conversation. If you don’t remember the exact text, if you change the order of words or sentences, or even use different words to complete the conversation, it’s not a problem. The aim is to be able to tell the story using the structures studied in the last few lessons.
