making requests with WOULD

There are plenty of ways to make requests or ask politely about something. Today I'd like to share a very simple and quick speaking activity in which the students are asked to use different variations of WOULD (also in expressing wishes). It could prove useful both in the practice stage of a lesson and as a revision exercise. Enjoy.

GRAMMAR PRACTICE

The teacher asks particular students to make sentences with would, would like, would love or wouldn't like.

• You want to do something with your friend tonight. 
• You are in a restaurant and you ask for a glass of water.
• You are saying having children is not for you.
• At school you’re asking the teacher to repeat something.
• You want to be a famous artist very much.
• You are saying how much you want to go to Casablanca.
• You are offering your friend a piece of cake.
• You don't like to work as an undertaker.
• You are asking your friend where you should put the box.
• You are explaining that your family doesn’t like to live in a village.
• On a train station you’re asking for a one way ticket to Glasgow.
• You are excited about going to a film premiere with your friend.
