Speaking Test about likes and dislikes

Hi! I �m back!

This time I �d like to receive suggestions for a speaking test

I �m interested in testing students orally I think it �s convenient to evaluate this aspect because speaking is an important skill

The students are 14-15 years old and I should assess their use of I like... I don �t like and Do you like....? They know food and by the time I �m evaluating probably I �ll have already taught sports

I must keep it short and sweet...I have 80 minutes available and 20 students Besides I think they are not used to having oral tests (in that school)

The only thing that came to my mind was to give them "food cards" or "food dices"...according to the card they pick or the face of the dice they get , they have to say if they like that or not...What about questions? If there is anything around here you can recommend I �d appreciate it

You can use those prompts to make them have short conversations like: I like pizza. Do you like pizza?/Does your mother like pizza?
That would help you with the timing because they have to be in pairs or in groups of three. Besides timing it helps them to be more confident since they are not alone in front of you.
Hope it helps.
