Do you agree?
Do you agree?
Helping students express their opinions is a key skill in learning English. This interactive ESL activity focuses on agreeing and disagreeing while reinforcing sentence structure and discussion skills.
Preparation
Before class, prepare a worksheet with jumbled sentences that express opinions. Make one copy per student.
How to Run the Activity
Step 1: Forming Opinions
- Hand out the worksheet to each student.
- Explain that the sentences are mixed up and need to be reordered correctly.
- Students rewrite the sentences with proper punctuation. Example:
- Jumbled: season the best summer is
- Corrected: Summer is the best season.
- Once students have completed the worksheet, go through the correct answers as a class.
Step 2: Agreeing and Disagreeing
- Draw students’ attention to useful agreement and disagreement expressions:
✅ I agree because… / That’s true! / I think so too.
❌ I don’t think so. / I disagree because… / Not really! - Have students write their responses to each opinion, using these expressions.
Step 3: Group Discussion
- Divide students into small groups of three or four.
- One student reads out an opinion from the worksheet.
- Other students agree or disagree and explain why.
- The discussion continues until all opinions have been debated.
Step 4: Class Reflection
- Bring the class back together and discuss:
- Which opinions caused the most debate?
- Did anyone change their mind after hearing different viewpoints?
