Storyboard # 2 - Match The Picture With The Verb

There are seven moral / ethical dilemmas to be considered. Have your students work in pairs an discuss possible solutions. Maybe you also can have a class discussion.

Up For Discussion - Moral Dilemmas #1

I used this ESL activity with music. Once the music starts students must walk around. When the music stops they need to ask another student 'Do you like X?' If the response is "Yes", the interviewer should write down the student's name. If the answer is no, they need to move on until they find someone who does.



Then once the music begins the question time stops and walking starts again. 



First to complete the worksheet wins.



There are 4 blanks at the bottom for the students to add their own ideas.

Ice Breaker: Find someone who ...

Some simple tasks to practise 'like' and other verbs which require the gerund structure after them.



Students have to fill in the gaps with the verbs after they look at the symbols. Then they write how they feel about doing this or that thing. And after that, they should write the missing information about their friend.

Warmer - this is a class exercise. Students must talk to each other student in the class and ask them the questions on the worksheet, writing down as much detail as possible. After the activity, open up class discussion with students telling the class what they have found out about their fellow students.

Find Someone who...

I usually use such material when I want to cheer up my students a little bit. Here is some child taking a lie detector session. The questions are easy and clear, the same goes with the answers. You also have some kind of script from this video, so you can practise these questions with your student. The answers are included as well.
