Before watching the segment:

Play some relaxing music, dim all the lights, create a cozy atmosphere, and ask your
students to take a fantasy trip into the past. Tell them to think about their childhood (or
adolescence). Ask them to close their eyes and address them the following questions.
Don't let them answer the questions now; all they have to do is travel in time.

   1. What are your best childhood (teenage) memories?

   2. What did your school look like?

   3. What kind of student did you use to be?

   4. Who used to be your best friend?

   5. Where did you use to go on weekends?

   6. What sports did you use to practice?

   7. What were your favorite games?

   8. What did you dislike about that period of your life?
.
Now divide the class into pairs, give each pair a copy of this exercise sheet with the
questions you have just read, and let them share their ideas with their partners.

Now the students watch the segment and do the grammar exercises.
