Want to

Step 1: Introduce "Want to" with Simple Examples

👩‍🏫 Teacher: "We use 'want to' when we desire to do something. Look at these examples:"
✅ I want to eat ice cream.
✅ She wants to play football.

🗣 Ask students:

  • "What do you want to do after class?"
  • "What do you want to eat for dinner?"

Step 2: Interactive Pattern – Role Play

📝 Activity: "Dream Job Interview"
1️⃣ Pair up students. One is an interviewer, the other is a job candidate.
2️⃣ Interview Example:

  • Interviewer: What do you want to be in the future?
  • Candidate: I want to be a doctor.
  • Interviewer: Why do you want to be a doctor?
  • Candidate: Because I want to help sick people.

3️⃣ Rotate roles & practice different answers.


Step 3: Action-Based "Want to" Game

🎲 "What do you want to do?" - Charades
1️⃣ Write different actions on small slips of paper (e.g., dance, sing, jump, write).
2️⃣ One student picks a slip & acts out the action without speaking.
3️⃣ Other students guess:

  • "Do you want to dance?"
  • "Do you want to jump?"
  • The student acting can respond: "Yes, I want to dance!"

Step 4: Real-Life Conversation Practice

👫 Pair Work – Daily Life Questions

  • "What do you want to do this weekend?"
  • "Where do you want to go on vacation?"
  • "What do you want to eat today?"

Each student must answer & ask back. Example:
🗣 Student A: "I want to visit a beach. What do you want to do?"
🗣 Student B: "I want to watch a movie."


Step 5: Correcting Mistakes with Fun Challenges

🚦 "Fix the Mistake" Game
Write some incorrect sentences on the board and let students correct them.
❌ She want to go home.
✅ She wants to go home.

❌ We wants to play cricket.
✅ We want to play cricket.

Make it a team competition to see who corrects the most mistakes!


Step 6: Wrap-Up & Homework Challenge

📌 Ask students to write 5 sentences about their desires using "want to" and share them in the next class.
📌 Optional: Make a short video saying what they "want to" do in life.


Bonus Fun Activity: "Want to" Chain Game

One student starts: "I want to eat pizza."
Next student must add: "I want to eat pizza and drink juice."
Next student: "I want to eat pizza, drink juice, and go to the park."
👉 The chain continues, testing memory and sentence formation!
