Do, Make, Have, Take – Collocations

Get 64 make, do, take and have collocations speaking cards for B1 adult learners - make a decision, do your best, take a risk, have an argument, make an appointment, do overtime, take a message, have a word - where every card makes the student use one specific collocation in a real answer about their life, work and plans.

• Learn collocations with make and do (B1): 16 word cards with the pattern, a simple meaning and a question that forces the collocation - "When did you last make a big decision? How long did it take you?" - covering make a mistake, make progress, make a complaint, do the housework, do research, do someone a favour and more.
• Learn collocations with take and have (B1): 16 word cards such as take a break, take part, take responsibility, have a chat, have an argument and have a go, each with a talk task about the student's own habits, work and relationships.
• Choose make, do, take or have with Which Verb? (B1): 16 cards with two gapped questions each, so the student says the missing verb in the right form (made, does, took, had) and then answers; 32 more collocations, a follow-up task on every card and a two-slide answer key.
• Use collocations in real-life situations (B1): 16 role-plays - calling the dentist, asking for a day off, fixing a mistake with a client, a delayed flight, a noisy neighbour, returning a product - with three collocations on every card (students use at least two), teacher twists on selected cards and no model answer.
