Teaching Procedures
Tips
Step 1 Lead in
· The T can play a video of a talent show to introduce what it is to Ss and have Ss talk about their opinions. The T can use the following prompts:
What kind of show do you think is it?
Have you ever watched the similar shows?
What do you think of the show?
How do you like the performer?
Then the T can explain what a talent show is and have Ss
personalize the topic like this:
Do you have any talents?
Have you ever entered for any talent shows?
Step 2 Presentation & Practice
· 1a
This activity is to help Ss use the target language in a different context. Ss do the task in 1a individually and the T can check answers in class.
Answers: most boring--most creative; loudest--quietest;
Worst--best; most serious--funniest
The T can extend the activity by asking Ss to think of words on their own:
1. Have Ss close their textbooks.
2. Write on the board:
Positive words
Negative words
good
bad
3. Have Ss work in pairs to expand each list to seven words.
4. Finally have the pairs change all adjectives to superlative forms.e.g. good to best, bad to worst.
5. Remind Ss that some words may be positive or negative depending on context.
· 1b
The activity is to give Ss practice using the target language in conversations. The T may want to facilitate the conversation in 1b by writing the following on the board and encouraging Ss to expand their conversations:
A: Who is the funniest person you know?
B: My sister, Isabel, is the funniest person I know.
A:Why is she so funny? What does she do to make you laugh?
B:She always tells jokes. How abo
