Summer Try, Do or Skip
In this activity, students read sets of three summer activities. For each one, they decide whether they would try it, whether they already do it, or whether they would skip it, and explain their choice using because, I'd love to, and I'd rather not. Students try to give full, natural answers and compare their choices with their classmates.
