What do you do if...? Picture Description

Week 16^th – 18^th June

Hello!

It seems most of you are on holiday! Classes finish on 30^th June.

We continued working on conditional sentences: zero and first conditionals.

We did an oral exercise so as to practise the zero conditional,  the real conditional, which refers to a real situation or a fact. We unscrambled (rearranged, put in order) some cards.

They went something like this:

“If a friend lends you something and you break it or lose it, …

Do you ….? Or …?”

So, first we had to work out the three parts of the question and then, answer it!

We learnt that:

·         If a waiter forgets to put some expensive drinks on your  bill, you remind him / her to add them to the bill. (Or at least, that’s what you told me! And I  trust (confide) you! You  look like (seem to be)  honest people)

·         If you hit another car when you’re  parking and the damage is rather big (considerable), you leave a note. (Quite honest, too)

·         If people push into a queue in front ofLoli, she sends them to the back of the queue.(Sensible behaviour! People should learn to wait their turn!)

·         If a friend asks Carlos to borrow some money to buy a lottery ticket, he asks him/her to share with him. (That’s a right thing to do! You never know where luck lies!)

Real situation : If + present------------------------  present  (ZeroConditional)

We also practised the first conditional talking about possible laws for Murphy!

We reviewed vocabulary by describing pictures in detail. Later we used the pictures to tell a story.

You should revise vocabulary related to clothes and adjectives to describe appearance as well as feelings.

·         What can you see in the picture?

·         How many people are there? Where are they?

·         What are they wearing?

·         How are they feeling?

·         Why do you think they’re feeling like that?

·         Are the people in the picture related?

·         What are they doing?

·         What do you think is going to happen next?

·         What do you think it happened?

In the first picture we could see three people. A young couple and a hunter. The hunter was wearing a brown raincoat, a checked cap, brown trousers and a jumper. He was carrying a bag on his shoulder and he was holding a gun, a rifle. He was hunting deer, because we could see some deer in the background of the picture.

The couple were wearing summer clothes. The girl was wearing a sleeveless white top, a long patterned skirt and trainers. The boy was wearing a white polo shirt, casual trousers and trainers, too. They were walking in the countryside near the river. The couple looked surprised. Maybe because they didn’t expect to bump into(meet by chance) the hunter, who probably was the girl’s father. The hunter looked angry or annoyed.

… and so we continued describing the pictures… Then we listened to the story.

And this was about it!

Remember that I’m giving you a test on Wednesday. At least that’s what some of you agreed on…

See you!
