Like and don’t like alphabet coin game

Choose a letter of the alphabet, for example by picking a letter out of a bag of magnetic letters or by using the alphabet prompts below. Try to make a true “You like…” or “You don’t like…” sentence about your partner using a noun or verb starting with that letter. You get one point if what you say is true. Change roles and do the same. Continue switching roles, choosing letters and making true statements until your teacher stops the game.

Useful language for doing the activity

“That’s true”

“That’s not true. Actually I…”
