What Do You Do for Fun? — Talking About Hobbies | Common Core Lesson

Learn how to talk about your hobbies and free time in English! A simple, beginner conversation lesson for Common Core students, with Arabic help and a fun quiz.

Welcome to Unit 7! In this unit, we will talk about hobbies and free time. Let’s start by learning how to ask and talk about what we do for fun.

1

Asking About Hobbies

To ask someone about their hobby, we can say:

Asking About Hobbies
What do you do in your free time?What’s your hobby?


لسؤال شخص عن هوايته، نقول: “What do you do in your free time?” (ماذا تفعل في وقت فراغك؟) أو “What’s your hobby?” (ما هي هوايتك؟).
2

Talking About Your Hobby

To talk about your own hobby, we can say:

Example

My hobby is football.
I love playing chess.


للحديث عن هوايتك، نقول: “My hobby is football” (هوايتي كرة القدم) أو “I love playing chess” (أحب لعب الشطرنج).
3

Asking How Often

We can also ask how often someone does their hobby:

Example

How often do you play?
I play every weekend.

💡 Easy Tip

Remember adverbs of frequency from Unit 4 — you can also answer with “always,” “usually,” or “sometimes”!


يمكننا أيضا أن نسأل عن تكرار قيام شخص بهوايته: “How often do you play?” (كم مرة تلعب؟). يمكن الإجابة بـ “every weekend” أو باستخدام ظروف التكرار.
