In this refreshed lesson plan students learn how to use the phrases ‘so do I’ and ‘neither do I’. Students also practice other ways to show that they have something in common with someone. The lesson ends with a dialogue between two friends talking about a movie they just saw. This updated version of the lesson plan includes an animated video of the dialogue. (by Luca Burns)

AUDIO/VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

Elsa: Did you like the movie, Josh?
Josh: No, I didn’t.
Elsa: Neither did I. It was too long and pretty boring.
Josh: Yes, I agree. But I like the actor who played the hero.
Elsa: Me too. He’s really great!
Josh: Yes, he’s an amazing actor. I like all the movies he’s in.
Elsa: So do I, especially the comedies.
Josh: Yes! But it wasn’t funny when that guy answered his phone during the movie.
Elsa: No, it wasn’t.
Josh: It was very rude. I really didn’t like it.
Elsa: Neither did I.
Josh: Do you want to get some food? I’m really hungry.
Elsa: So am I! Where should we go?
Josh: Hmm, well I don’t like fast food.
Elsa: Me neither. I like healthy food.
Josh: Okay, so let’s go to that new seafood restaurant.
Elsa: Good idea. Let’s go.
