Now the students have the first part of the song on the board and the second part in front to them. The teacher plays the rest of the song and encourages students to sing along. The teacher encourages discussion of the singer's feelings and what he has to say. Students are asked to jot down the antonyms and synonyms. Students should also be told that the words they find need to be the same parts of speech as the ones in the exercise.
Pairs join with another pair to exchange ideas.
Students listen to the first part of the song and circle any antonym they have found that is used in the song. The teacher stops the tape at the end of the first two verses and elicits answers. The answers and the other antonyms that the students have found, are written on the board. The teacher circles the answers. Therefore other antonyms should be written on the board, and students should be praised for having come up with other words and phrases.
