The Lesson: have + someone + do something

This lesson is hard to grasp for new students who generally regard the meaning of "to have" as equal to "to own." However, with a little practice, the students can talk about things that they don't do themselves.

One at a time, around the room, each student was asked to make a sentence using this structure:
Student 1: "I have my hairdresser cut my hair."
Student 2: "I have my mechanic change the oil in my car."
...
Student 6: "I have my wife clean my rear."
