Defining Relative Clauses- Discuss and Agree

Defining relative clauses discuss and agree

Work in small groups. Choose phrases from below and try to write sentences that you both/ all agree with, e.g. “We don’t like people who push into trains before we’ve got off”. Your teacher will tell you if/ when you can look under the fold for help. When you have completed at least half, see if another group agrees with your opinions.

Useful language for the discussion “How about you?”/ “What about you?”/ “And you?” “Me too!”/ “I think so too.” “Really? I…”/ “Actually, I…”/ “To be honest, I…”

Hint: You are likely to need these relative pronouns to complete the sentences above:

things + that/ which                                                  people + who/ which

places + where/ in which                                        times + when

 

Do the same activity with your own ideas. Each sentence that you agree on and write down must have a relative pronoun from the list above (that, which, where, when or who).
