them to their classmates to put them on. Before we leave the classroom, they
have to give them back so they can pick them up next class.
“1, 2, 3, silence please” (make use of it whenever the teacher/pedagogical
partner sees it necessary)
Breathing activity. Since one of the classes starts after the break, we will invite
our students to stand next to their desks and imagine they have a balloon inside
their hands. They are going to inhale and when they exhale, the balloon is going
to be a little bit bigger than before. We are going to repeat this procedure three
times and at the end, we will imaginary pop the balloon.
Warm up: (10’)
Write an example on the board for students to follow and ask them the following
questions:
Can you ride a horse? Yes, I can. No, I can’t
Can you drive a car?
Can you touch the tips of your toes?
Can you rap?
Can you cook?
Can you hold your breath for 6 seconds?
Can you play chess?
Can you whistle?
Can you jump 5 times with one feet?
Can you speak English?
