"How was" Memory and Lesson Plan

Students practice using the phrase "How was" (How was your weekend, lunch, etc.) by playing question-answer memory and then writing their own "How was" questions.

I made this activity to drill the extremely common English phrase, How was ~~, because this phrase pretty much doesn't exist in the curriculum/textbooks despite how useful it is.

Cut out and glue the cards to opaque, colored paper to prevent them from being see-through.
Break the class up into small groups and hand each group a deck. Tell them to spread out the cards face-down. They have to make the corresponding numbers (1 to 1, 2 to 2). As they turn over the card, they have to read what's on the card.

The corresponding numbers create a dialogue. For example:
1. How was your day? --> 1. It was okay.
