I like … but I don't like …
We say what we like: I like playing sports. We say what we do not like: I don’t like singing. We can put both ideas in one sentence with but: I like playing sports, but I don’t like singing. For one boy or girl we say likes and doesn’t like: She likes drawing, but she doesn’t like singing. Everybody likes different things, and we respect that.
What do you like, Bassem?
I like drawing pictures, but I don’t like singing.
I like singing, but I don’t like drawing.
We are different, and that is OK!
Nour likes taking photos, but she doesn’t like playing sports. Her brother Omar likes playing sports, but he doesn’t like taking photos. They are different. They like each other very much.
Like and don’t like cards. Draw six hobby pictures on cards. The child puts each card on a happy face or a sad face and says: I like … or I don’t like … . Then make one sentence with but.
