First Conditional Warmer
Give one student a warning about some small, insignificant action, e.g. 'If you drop your pen it'll break'. Invite learners to continue by taking the second half of your warning and creating a new warning, e.g. 'If your pen breaks you won't be able to do your exam'. Once this sentence is established, elicit the next warning - becoming bigger and stranger as they go on: e.g. 'If you can't do your exam you'll have to leave school' etc. At the end, see if learners working in pairs can recall the whole chain of warnings - starting from that one small initial action. Pairs should then create their own chain starting from a new warning.

an amazing warmer to help learners consolidate their skills in using the First Conditional
I am learning to be a TEFL teacher right now, but I'll be sure to use this when the time comes. Thanks for sharing this activity!
Thank you for this post..It is really helpful.
This is not a warmer. You shouldn't use the target language in the warmer... You should elicit it from the students...
