After this, he/she asks the student " And you?" and wants them to try using "I like / I don't like".

Exposure (8-10 minutes) • To provide a model of production expected in coming tasks through reference card

The instructor writes on the board something that usually disliked by children, for example, " I like peas" and asks one of the students "And you?". When the student says " I don't like", the instructor writes this as "(Student's Name) does not like peas. She/he likes chocolate." The instructor points out "s" with another color and asks them why it was written this way. In this way, she/he provides the rules to be discovered.
