Conditionals through commercials
Angolos ötletek - 12 éve
I thought since this part of our website deals exclusively in ESL / EFL, it might make sense to write in English. Hope the bilingual twist will not put off too many people. Anyway, today's EFL idea is about conditionals and commercials. In these commercials there is a chain of events that will readily yield themselves to be used to teach conditional sentences. Any 'type', actually. All you have to do is mute the video and ask students to write down how they feel the chain of events unfolds. Then check. Alternatively, ask them to use the 'second conditional' to narrate what might happen in each case. Quite entertaining, loads of language output, might even lead to discussion and also fun. Students will want to do the exercise, I promise :) There are altogether 3 commercials, each about 30 seconds long, so plenty of stuff to write and talk about!
