”Jag ska resa till Namibia i sommar.”

”Jag kommer att vara där i tre veckor.”

Play Battleships with a classmate. This version of the game is all about New Year's resolutions.

• Each player has their own grid. Each box on the grid contains a New Year’s resolution. Mark your ‘ships’ on the grid by shading connecting squares. You should have one ship with five squares, two with four squares and three with three squares. Your ships can be marked horizontally, vertically or diagonally. Don’t show the grid to your classmate.

• Take turns. Choose a box and read out the New Year’s resolution in English. Circle the number so you know which ones you have read out. If you get a hit, that is, you say a resolution from a box where your classmate has a ship, they say: Hit! In this case, mark the circled number to remember that there is a ship there. If there is no hit, your classmate will say: Miss! Find the solutions on page 253.

• When you sink your classmate's entire ship, they say Hit and sunk! The winner is the one who first sinks all the other person’s ships first.
