Routine (5’):
We are going to post on each of the classrooms a sheet of paper colorfully
designed by us with some threads hanging where we are going to put each of
our students ‘ names ( with a clip). Every time we enter the classroom, we are
going to choose three helpers. They will have to pick up all the names and give
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’):
 Students will be asked to tell us what sports they remember from previous
lessons and we will write them on the board.
 Watch the video:

 After having watched the video, students will be asked to recognize and
identify which sports and free time activities appear in it. We will add to the
list on the board the ones that are missing.
