When I was a child...

🗣️ Speaking Production

👶BEFORE THE VISIT

Part 1 – Look and Remember
Look at the image. They are objects from childhood — toys, ice creams, surfboards, scooters, etc.

🪀 Choose one object that reminds you of your childhood and complete the sentences:

  • When I was little, I used to ______________________________________.
  • I would __________________________________________ every summer.
  • One day, while I was __________________________________________, something funny happened: _________________________________.

Part 2 – Tell Your Story
Tell your story to a partner using these grammar forms:

  • used to → habitual actions in the past
  • would → repeated actions in the past
  • past simple → completed actions
  • past continuous → actions in progress in the past

🎧 Example:

“When I was little, I used to play with my red scooter after school. I would ride it with my best friend, and we were always laughing.”

Try to include:
✅ Where it happened  ✅ Who was with you  ✅ How you felt  ✅ Why it’s a special memory


🗿 AFTER THE VISIT
