Lesson aims: By the end of the lesson, the students will be able to:
- practise newly introduced vocabulary structures
-write words that a superhero would tell in a conversation with another superhero
-put the lyrics into the right order after listening to the song

time into explaining words.
-students might be reluctant when it comes to speaking in front of the class.
-time might be insufficient so what remains undone will be HW.
Activity 1: Warmer
The T checks HW and then describes the Ss her favourite cartoon character which they have to
guess.
e.g. He is a student. He can fly high with the help of spider threads. He was bitten by a spider.
(Spiderman)
Now that they have guessed the character they have to think of another one and say one
characteristic of him/her.
Aim: to improve vocabulary items by saying adjectives describing their cartoon character.
Interaction: T-Ss, Ss-T
Teacher’s role: introducing the lesson and helping Ss with words.
Time: 5 minutes
Activity 2: Lead in
The T writes Superhero on the board and asks Ss to tell her what superheroes can do. The T also
introduces some words as she can spin around, she can shrink, he can lift up heavy objects, he
can stretch very far, he can freeze things, which they will have to match with the right picture.
(APPENDIX 1)
e.g. he can fly, he can become invisible, he can fly into space, he can run fast etc.
Aim: to improve vocabulary items by matching the new words with the right pictures.
