My names

1. Using the pattern: I'm / I was / I used to be called... by... when... and tell the students half a dozen names you are or have been known by, e.g.: 'I was called Mariolino by my father when he was feeling affectionate.'
2. Ask the students to write down as many sentences as they can using the above pattern, listing as many of their names and nicknames as they are willing to share with others.
3. Get the students read their sentences to the rest of the class and explain the contexts of the names.
