This one takes a little while to explain, but my kids were into it.
I have a scavenger hunt page with simple sentences in the "He likes (x)" "She doesn't like (x)" format. Here, students must go around asking each other questions based on the statement, turning "He likes soccer" into "Do you like soccer?" If they find a student who matches the box, they write that student's name, and cross the box out. Should someone manage to get 2 lines, they are the winner (in our class we have a point system, so we just awarded points to the first five who completed the activity).
Benefits of this: it forces the students to talk to both boys AND girls, which my kids generally avoid like the plague. But they can't complete the task if they don't, and usually their competitiveness overtakes the "Girls, icky!" stuff they usually pull. Second, it forces my kids to actually know one another's names, which a lot of mine don't, for whatever reason.
I've also included a reaaaally brief powerpoint I used to help me explain the task in English (with my co-teacher's English name shoved in, so replace as necessary). Also in the docx file is a number of blanks, so you can replace to your heart's desire, or turn the task into a survey or regular old bingo game.
