This is an activity I have done at the beginning of the lesson before starting a unit on the topic of money and to assess how many collocations with "money" and "time" they knew.
Three volunteers came to the front of the classrroom and completed Venn's diagram on the interactive whiteboard. When they finished the class corrected the collocations using online dictionaries and books. I simply monitored the activity.
Below you can see the introduction of the topic, which started with a statement which they had to discuss. It followed with a list of expressions used in combination with "money" and "time" and moved on to write them in the corresponding area of the Venn diagram.
