things such as people, animals, countries, places, etc (pointing on the poster). Please,
Valentin and Milagros come to the front. I can say for example, that Valentin is taller than
(emphasizing this word) Milagros (miming). Or that, this window (pointing) is bigger
than the other window (pointing). Thank you Valentin and Milagros, you can sit down. In

T: Who do you think the first person is? (Pointing to the word “she”)
STS: Winnie…. Mandela’s wife
T: Good, and who do you think the second person is? (Pointing to the words “him”)
STS: Mandela…
T: Good! So, itcompares Winnie with Mandela… Is the word “young” a noun, verb, or
adjective? (Pointing)
STS: Adjective!
T: Ok, so we use adjective i.e. words that describe something to compare something and
the word “than” to compare both things. What do we add at the end of the adjective?
STS: ER…
T: Excellent! When we use comparatives there are some simple rules that we need to bear
in mind! Look at this, what happens when the word end in “y”?
STS: We remove the letter “y” and add “ier”
T: Excellent! There are some adjectives that are irregular because we change the word to
compare something. For example the word “bad”, how do we write this word to compare
something? (Looking at the poster)
STS: We write “worse”
T: Good! And… if we use the word “good”?
STS: Better!
T: Excellent… now go to page 19 and in pairs do activity 4.3 bearing in mind the poster.
