A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Review pet, stuffed animal and zoo. Let learners use fictional examples if they have never had a pet.
- Read the prompts and identify what each asks. Model one full-sentence response, then keep page 2 for checking after learners attempt their own answers.
- Answer preference and experience questions, then give a reason for one animal-welfare opinion.
- Optionally compare the animal each learner would choose to be for a day.
Support and extension
Pets, zoos and vegetarianism can draw different views. Check clear language and supporting reasons rather than agreement with page 2. Do not ask learners to defend personal diets or disclose upsetting pet experiences. For support, provide a few sentence starters or let learners rehearse orally first. Use the models to notice useful language while preserving each learner's own meaning.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
