Spring Verb Patterns

This light and engaging warm-up helps students practise common verb patterns such as love, like, enjoy, prefer, want, and decide through simple spring-themed sentence starters. Learners share their ideas about spring activities and plans while building confidence in speaking.

How to use

• Students look at the picture-based sentence starters and complete them with their own ideas.
• Encourage learners to focus on using the correct verb forms (-ing or to + verb) after each verb.
• Students can work individually, in pairs, or in small groups to compare their answers.
• Use the activity as a quick warm-up to practise verb patterns and start a discussion about spring habits, feelings, and plans.
