Introduction
Hello, dear students!
Today, we are going to discuss likes and dislikes!
A teenager’s view of himself or herself, his or her identity, can be shaped by musical experiences, media preferences, social interactions, school, family, culture, and life experiences. For example, teenagers who study music can often identify themselves by the instrument they play or by the music group to which they belong. A preference, which is frequently a part of a teenager’s identity, can change according to age, mood, social situation, or many other circumstances that are often in flux.
Read the following quote:
Do you agree with Sallust?
It is important to be able to express our preferences in a new language. To be able to express our likes and dislikes, will help us make new friends and communicate with others. Therefore, this Webquest will help us explore the ways to use language to talk about the things you like and dislike.
Love,
Teacher Fabián
