• Teaching approach: Natural approach- Presentation, practice, production. Communicative
approach where students should use the new vocabulary.
• Materials and resources: flashcards, photocopies, a white board, notebook, text and
games.
• Pedagogical use of ICT in class: Audio material enriches language learning and acquisition.
There is no instance of ICT in the lesson.
• Seating arrangement: Students work in their seats to have visual contact and interaction.
• Cooperative work: Students work as a class, then in groups and finally individually.
• Possible problems/difficulties and their possible solutions during the class: students may
get excited because everyone wants to participate so the teacher will stop the class and
encourage them to sit down and listen. Some others may be distracted or they don’t want
to participate so I will encourage them help me with flashcards or other materials.
• Potential problems students may have with the language: students may not understand
instructions or vocabulary so the teacher will repeat the language, use body language,
mimes, intonation and uses visual support. Also a volunteer can translate the task into
their mother tongue.
• Assessment what will be assessed and how: I will pay attention to students’ participation
asking questions to all them. Also, the use of the language is important and I will note how
they do the activities. I will repeat the correct intonation, instructions and the structure
with the aim they repeat and pay special attention to these.
• Skills integration: listening, speaking and writing will be integrated in this lesson.

Comentado [A8]: So that it becomes a game, you should turn it
into an information exchange activity. There should be some missing
information that student 1 needs to complete and student 2 has,
and vice versa.

Observations
Nice lesson, Majo! I really liked the idea of working with Superheroes. You can find
plenty of pictures about superheroes performing different actions – take advantage
of the vast amount of resources you can find nowadays online! One last comment
about pictures – try including “real” pictures, not just drawings.
Keep the context clear. Students will surely enjoy it. When they have to write some
sentences about their own abilities, the title may be I am a Superhero because…
Hope my comments and suggestions are clear. Make the necessary changes before
delivering the lesson.
