3:04 PM How to Write a LOVE STORY. Writing activity for intermediate students. Разработка ко Дню Святого Валентина для 10кл. (Гончаренко Н.В.) | |
HOW TO WRITE A LOVE STORY in class This activity can be used for Saint Valentine's Day with upper-graders. 1. Stress the importance of several points before writing the story: The names of the characters, the dates (They met on Sunday, they met in 1945, they met on June,3 in summer), the places (At the station, in the shop, in the internet, at school). To make it a bit easier with grammar you can help them by writing on the board some verbs on the subject: met, fell in love, dated, went out, were thinking of each other, fell out, broke up, made up, got married etc. A nice exercise for refreshing the Past Tenses - Fill in the gaps with the correct verb form: Jorge and Jane _____(meet) at the bus station, on April 10th, 1990. She _____ (be) waiting a bus to go to Santiago, when Jorge _______ (arrive) beside her. He ____ (ask) her if she _____ (can) lend him her cell phone, but she ______(say) "no, I can’t”. He really ______ (need) to make a call, so he _____(try) to convince her by telling to Jane that she ______ (look) absolutely beautiful like a model. After that, Jane _____(lend) her cell phone to Jorge. She also ________ (think) he was very handsome. Then, Jorge ______(take) a bus and _______(disappear). She _____(be) thinking of him many days. She _______(decide) to phone to the same number he ___(do) that day trying to find him. However, Jorge _____(not) answer and she ______(hear) a happy female voice that said " Jorge (marry) today". | |
