  3. Should and Would • You see a fifteen year old boy, who lives across the road from you, snatch a woman’s handbag and disappear round a corner. • What should you do? What would you do?

  4. What is the difference? • You should – Probably tell someone that you know it was the boy who stole the bag so the woman gets her handbag back? Approach the boy and ask him to return it or say you will tell the police?

  5. What is the difference? • You would – Say nothing as it is none of your business? Say nothing as you don’t want to get bullied by the older boy?

  6. Should and Would • What do you think are the differences? • Have a think about it and write down in your jotter what you think the difference is between should and would. • What would you have done?
