What should I do?



Asking for and giving advice.

Here are some examples of problems that some people experience. Read them and follow these instructions:

1. Choose one of the following advice letters.

  • Write a response to the advice letter you have chosen. Use at least 5 modals.

OR

2. Choose one partner.

  • Write a letter asking for advice. You may write about any problem whether it is real or not.
  • Exchange letters with your partner.
  • Answer your partner's advice letter. Use at least 5 modals.

All advice letters and answers should be at least one paragraph long (3 or more sentences)

Advice letter A:
How can I make them like me more?
My group of friends are awesome and really cool but I really don't think they like me. I try to be more fun but being depressed most days of the week doesn't help. How can I be more lively and confident around my friends so they'll hopefully like me more?
Erica, 14

Advice letter B:
How do I stop her shoplifting?
I think my friend shoplifts. She admitted to me she has before. I told her the dangers and she said she won't do it anymore, but I think she just said that to stop me going on at her about it. How do I find out if she is still doing it and how do I stop her?

Advice letter C:
I'm moving away.
I'm going on exchange to France for a year, so I'll be there without family or friends. I'm not sure how to make friends when I get there. My host family seems nice, but I'm not sure how I can make friends at a new school in a different language when I don't even have a host sister my age.
Alice, 15
