Here is what I try to do with the kids but i think it is not as perfect as I wish, so plz hepl me
I ask them to think about the food they like ( normally they choose pizza)
I draw a big pizza in the board and I ask them to think that now I want to MAKE a pizza, So I like a ( example beef pizza with slot of cheese and no onions) And I make it, Is it good for me?
Of course the answer is yes, When I make the pizza for myself, It is all good for me. Then I explain that If the pizza is the VERB, Then I will not add anything to the pizza as the verb in this case stay the same ( not adding anything)
And then now I want James to make a pizza for me, does he know what types of pizza do I like? => No. So he just makes one, and MAYBE this pizza is not the one I like( I like lots of cheese)And What can I do to make it good for me? => add something in( for example: cheese, pepper, salt ) to make it delicious ( for my appertize) => so we need to ADD some things to the pizza(VERB) if we see He or She .
after that I give another example : Our class want to make a big pizza, James wants seafood, Kate wants beef, I want Hawaiian...So When we make this pizza, we can make kind-of multi- slices pizza so everyone can be happy with it. Do we need to ADD anything there? - No, => just like the VERB when the S is you/ We/ They , we don �t add anything
With the pizza, I can teach them aout the adv of frequency ( coz ,many of them keep adding s/ es to the adv of frequency) I tell them that the adv here is just like one drink ( I ask them before to choose a drink to drink with the pizza and draw it in front of the pizza) DO you add cheese, pepper or salt to the drink?
SO so you think it is too complicated? any ideas to make it works for the kids. Many thanks
