Create groups of 3 and assign roles (you may elect to let students choose later, after they are comfortable with the format): Partner 1, Partner 2, and Monitor.
The Partners will receive different lists of questions in English (or prompts in target language for more advanced learners) that they will have to formulate in the target language.
The Monitor is in charge of helping the Partners formulate their questions accurately and keeping the conversation going with follow-up questions (this is why I usually assign a more proficient student to the Monitor role).
