4. Word Workout!
. Ask the students to look at the two pictures. The first one
says “I like flies” and the second one says “I love flies”.
AL: Students are aware that not
all words can be translated on
a one-on-one correspondence.
Explain that in English we don’t use ‘like’ and ‘love’ in the
same way. When we like something, it’s something we enjoy
doing or being involved in. But when we love something it’s our favorite thing, it’s
something that makes us very, very happy.
Have the students look at the two pictures. Ask them why they think that in picture one she
says “I like flies,” but in picture two, the plant says “I love flies”? Have the students explain
their ideas.
. Have the students copy the sentences, choosing like or love, according to their own
preference. There is no correct answer, as it is an individual choice.
OPTION: Have the students explain orally why they love some things and why they only like
other things. For example, if they say they love music, ask them what it is they do to show
they love music. If they say they like music, ask what kind of music they like, etc.
5. Let’s Write and Talk!
Have the students use the substitution table to write sentences with ‘like’ and ‘love’. Before
you have them start working, go over all the words in the third column to make sure they
are all clear.
The students should write at least three sentences with ‘like’ and three with ‘love’.
When they are finished, have the students share their sentences with their partners. The
students can then report on each other’s likes and loves.
