Отрабатываем can и have to со студентом уровня elementary

Никогда нельзя предугадать, какой каверзный вопрос задаст вам студент во время урока. Вот скажет: «Путаюсь я между вашими can и have to. Давайте-ка на практике отработаем?» Подбор материала - дело деликатное, так как нужно и под уровень ученика адаптировать задания; и упражнения, где бы присутствовали эти два глагола найти; и, конечно же, про фан и wow-эффект не забыть.
