A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Use the two model conversations and phrase lists on the learner page. The final dialogue prompts are open-ended, with no fixed answer key.
- Read the phone-rule exchange and compare dictionary use with test restrictions.
- Compare the museum and wildlife suggestions, identifying a reason for each preference.
- Develop a final prompt using two opinion phrases and a response to another view.
Support and extension
Offer opinion/because/context frames. Extend with a qualification; learners need not produce a debate speech or agree with the models.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
