Introduction
In this fun etiquette activity, students complete guidelines on etiquette around the world and then
take part in a quiz using the advice.
Procedure
Divide the students into two groups (A and B). Give each student
a corresponding worksheet.
Preview the gerunds in the boxes and pre-teach some of the
more difficult ones such as 'slurping' and 'burping'.
To begin, students complete guidelines on etiquette around the
world using words from a box. When the students have finished,
