The students read a small text about the teacher or a famous person. They will have a quick look at it and find the sentences with like, love and hate and they underline these words and check their answers with their partners. READ AND FIND Find the activities and underline them. I love traveling (the word "traveling" is underlined) abroad and visiting famous places. I like swimming and watching new films on Netflix. I really love spending time with my friends. I hate working on Saturdays. Weekends are great because I really like sleeping late but I don’t like tidying my room.
T writes on the board: I like playing chess. T elicits the form. What's the first verb? Does it describe our feeling? What's the second verb?
To clarify useful language for coming productive tasks "subject + like/likes/love/loves/hate/hates + verb + ing" WHEN DO YOU USE VERB ING? ( WHEN WE TALK ABOUT a hobby or activity and how we feel about it) Do we can use like, love, hate, and don’t mind to talk about how we feel about an activity. What do we want to put at the end of the second verb?
T asks Ss to look at Exercise on the WB. It is a gap-filling activity in which Ss will have to fill in the gaps with the verbs given. They will have to write the verbs in -ing form.
