Description
A mixer activity is a great way to start the new year. This worksheet can be used in the first lesson back in January.
It's very simple to set up: there are ten 'find someone who' tasks, which will get your students talking to their classmates.
We have two versions of the worksheet. One has a focus more on Christmas, and the other has an emphasis more on the holiday and New Year.
This worksheet is ideal for lower-intermediate level classes.
