Once you have a good selection of sentences on the board, ask the class why you have organised their answers on the board as you have. If your students run out of ideas for this picture, show them others, such as the one on the right. Organise their answers so that factual statements are on the left-hand side of the board, and any speculative sentences are on the right, but at this stage don’t explain this division. You should write their sentences on the board, reformulating if necessary. Then have the students share their sentences with the rest of the class. The key objective is to activate previous knowledge, which may or may not have been formally taught.Īt the beginning of the session, show the students the picture above, and give them a couple of minutes to think of sentences about it in pairs. Here’s a quick exercise to introduce the topic of using modal verbs to express speculation and deduction.
