Teacher’s directions (Follow the procedures for each character.) Divide the class into pairs Each pair receives a worksheet They are allowed to take notes in their notebooks during the pair discussion Each pair discusses the answers for the first character / smiley Tell them to look the character carefully and try to understand how the character is feeling They have to use their imagination to create stories to justify why they feel that way After the allotted time (that may range between / 10 minutes, depending on the students’ level and oral development), choose a pair and they have to explain their conclusions Ask the class a pair that disagrees The second pair will explain what they think and why Ask the students to raise their hands if they agree and count the number of students; ask them to raise their hands if they disagree and count the students The pair with more students supporting the students’ opinion gets a point Start the same activities with the character #2, until time’s up or they have analyzed all the characters Remind students that there isn’t a right / wrong answer / opinion, but they have to find the best way to justify their opinion in a reasonable way to defend what they think in front of the class Only two pairs will explain their opinions (for and against), but all the pairs must be prepared Choose the pairs randomly, but make sure all the students participate equally © Zailda Coirano, 2012 Find more worksheets and games at zaildacoirano.com or myenglishworksheets.net
