Hello Michael! As you can see, all the answers are the same and all are correct! to be chilling - means to be relaxing, not doing anything special.
It is either I am calm or simply relaxing.
I am chilling can mean many things It can mean I’m relaxing, I’m taking a break or I’m cooling off.
Think of the time you decide not to worry or think of what's do next. Rather, you spare yourself some time, go buy that ice cream 😄yeah! Get a coffee, laugh or sing if you feel like singing, rejoice as much as you want and say words like "wow, I feel so much relaxed after I had that coffee, or ice cream or after singing for a little bit." That's what chilling means, not entirely being happy but feeling a bit free.

The best approach is to expose students to the what conditionals are through explanation. Explain all the types of conditionals providing examples for each. Then the details of the structure of each type of conditionals would better come last, then strengthen understanding by having the student produce written and spoken language. Lastly, expose them to more reading and real life listening examples regarding this, sometimesas homework. To gauge their understanding of the structure, give fill in exercises.
