Using your imagination

What are we learning today?

You will learn to use your imagination to talk about ideas, plans and feelings.

Explanation

• With imagination, you can speak about things that did not happen.
• Play a true or false game. Say two true sentences and two false sentences about transport. Your partner guesses.
• Plan an imaginary trip. Ask: "Where are you going? How are you getting there? When are you getting back?"
• Use present continuous for plans and words for feelings, like excited and terrified.
• Use phrases of surprise: "You're joking!"

Examples

1. My uncle can fly a helicopter.
2. I'm going to the mountains by coach and I'm getting back on Sunday.
3. I'm terrified of the dark, so I always take a torch.

Remember!

• Use the present continuous for a plan, not the present simple.
• Add feelings to your story.
