Organisation
Preparation
What do I do? 1 Cut up and mix the expressions before your lesson.
2 Ask students to match the similar expressions.
3 Turn all of the cards face down and play a memory game: The first student turns over 2 cards. If they match, the student keeps the pair and tries again. If not, play passes to the next student. The student with the most pairs at the end is the winner

The line's busy | The line's engaged
I'll put you through | I'll connect you
Hold on | One moment
Go ahead | I'm ready
Could I have your name? | Who's calling please?
Is that all? | Anything else?
A country or area number | A code
Can you wait? | Will you hold?
The reason I'm phoning is... | I'm calling to...
