Use of ser y estar: Make sentences to practise:)

Question

I am suggesting a game on the use of ser y estar a lot of students have problems with.

a) We are going to put pairs of similar expressions with ser y estar and sentences to go with it, both in Spanish and English:

ser aburrido/ estar aburrido

To be boring/ to be bored.

Soy una mujer muy aburrida, no me gusta hacer nada.

I am a very boring woman, I don't enjoy doing anything.

Estoy aburrida, este foro es aburrido

I am bored, this forum is soooo boring

b) You can also mention the use of ser or estar when we use some kind of different verb in English, or the other way round.

To be hot: tener calor

to be hot: ser sexy

Well, all of this with example sentences.

Please remember to post both in English and in Spanish. And do not forget to click the "watch this question"
