Instructional Ideas
  • Have learners watch the presentation in a computer lab or class set of tablets as a warm-up activity
  • Encourage your class to write a short story or narrative essay using some of the phrases from the presentation
  • Divide your class into pairs and have them write a script, in which they ask each other questions and answer with the appropriate modal phrases
