SKILL OBJECTIVE: Using like(s), doesn’t/don’t like plus gerund. Give several statements of likes/dislikes: I like skiing, but I don’t like
skating. I like eating, but I don’t like gaining weight. Ask students,“How about you?” After four or five have volunteered, ask their
classmates to recall their statements. Alicia likes playing with babies, but she doesn’t like changing them. If students use the infinitive
