The students work out and write down the original sentence:
I have to go to sleep early during the week, or
During the week I have to go to sleep early.
If there is time, give a series of similar sentences, and the students
do as much as they can in the time.
You can use this activity to review a grammatical point,
taking the sentences from a grammar exercise.
Variation: Dictate the jumbled sentences instead of writing them
up; the students write them down as you dictate and then suggest
the solutions orally.

Likes and dislikes

Discussion.
Procedure: Ask each student to write down three things they like
and three things they don't like. They can decide whether they
wish to refer to important things or to less important things, but
what they write must be true.
Do the same thing yourself. Read out a point from your list
and then add some information to it.
For example? ‘I don't like loud noise, particularly if it's
unnecessary. If it's necessary I can put up with it’, etc.
Encourage the students to ask you questions. Students
then contribute their likes or dislikes.

Variation: Working with their neighbours, students take it in turns
to read out their points to each other and to chat further about
them.

Listening to sounds
