Love Clinic
Perfect way to combine a Valentine�s Day theme with the "should" modal. I recommend using 2 periods for this. First, have students read a letter from an advice column about romance. This would be a good time to introduce romance-related vocabulary. (Sorry, no handouts for this, yet.) Then, have students write their own fictional "love problem"...

Write About Yourself
This is a great way to either cap off a year of grammar (as an overall review) or begin a new year (as a refresher of last year�s grammar). Students first try to think of as many words as possible that are related to themselves (p.3).

Great for teaching similes or as a Valentine�s Day writing activity. My junior high students enjoyed writing letters to fictional characters (e.g., Doraemon) instead of real people. Whatever works! Included: (1) A practice sheet with a sample letter; (2) A writing sheet with a space for drawing a picture of the beloved!
