Using the word "like" as a basis for a lesson

I must admit I was dubious about the assignment for today's class. I was also curiously interested in exactly what we were going to do with the assignment of paying attention to how people use the word “like” in their speech.

Today’s lesson was highly fascinating and thoroughly engaging. It’s been a long time since I enjoyed a lesson, especially grammar based, as much as I did today.

I see the value, and potential, in teaching grammar in a manner that engages the student. This teaching style is much better than the rote methodology used when I was in school during the early 80’s—and the hairstyles are better as well.
