Since ss are starters, this could be a expression 'having dinner', a noun like 'dinner', or a sentence like 'they are having dinner'. Anything that they can produce is acceptable. Since some students are shy, the t asks them to actually write everything down in a group of 3. This gives the T a chance to monitor them one by one as well.
