2. Get into pairs, and sit facing each other. You will now take turns at asking each other about your family and friends using the 'ko wai tō' structure.

Then, take turns at asking each other 'ko wai...kei...?' questions about the people in your pictures. Your partner must listen to your question, then figure out which named person in the pictures you are talking about. Your partner must then answer your question with the persons name as their answer.
