Disagree With Me

The document presents a classroom activity to practice agreeing and disagreeing. Students are divided into groups where they take turns making statements about themselves using sentence starters on cards. The other students must respond by agreeing or disagreeing using target language. If no one agrees, the speaker keeps the card. The goal is to end with the most cards by making unique statements others can't agree with. The activity provides a fun way for students to practice expressions of agreement and disagreement.

Disagree with me
Here is an amusing speaking activity that helps you to teach your students expressions of
agreement and disagreement.

Before class, make one copy of the cards for each group of four.

Procedure

On the board, write a few statements similar to those on the cards.

Elicit possible endings from the class.

Ask students to agree and disagree with each statement using language to agree and
disagree, e.g. So do I, Neither am I, I don't, I can, etc. If necessary, write some expressions
on the board.

Next, divide the students into groups of four.

Give each group a set of cards. Tell them to shuffle the cards and deal them out evenly.

Each group chooses one student to start the game.

That student selects one of their cards and completes the sentence with some true
information about him or herself. The student should try to say something that no one else
will agree too.

The other group members then respond with agreement or disagreement.

If no one agrees to the statement, the student wins the card. If someone agrees, then the
card goes to the centre of the table.

The game continues in the same way with the next student and so on.

Group members may challenge anyone's statement if they think it is untrue.

The game ends when all the cards have been used.

The student with the highest number of cards at the end of the game is the winner.
