Slide 1 - Tekstslide
In this lesson, Ss talk about tips for becoming more creative. The lesson begins with Ss doing the paperclip challenge. They then read a text on the topic of creativity and focus on word families and word building, and word stress. Next, Ss listen to a podcast where people talk about their creativity. From this recording, Ss review and practise comparatives and superlatives before discussing and comparing a set of tips for becoming more creative. Finally, Ss write a review, focusing on linking ideas.

All you need for this game is a timer. To begin, brainstorm some comparative adjectives and write them on the board. Then choose a topic that has many nouns, such as ‘animals’. Then write a comparative sentence on the board comparing two animals. For example, ‘Elephants are bigger than cats.’.
Now the game can begin. The aim of the game is to make as many ‘comparative chains’ as possible. To make a chain, students must make a comparative sentence starting with the last noun of the previous sentence.
So, for example, if the first sentence is ‘Elephants are bigger than cats.’, then the next sentence must start with ‘Cats‘ (e.g. ‘Cat’s are smarter than pigs.’), and the sentence must start with ‘Pigs‘ (e.g. ‘Pigs are fatter than dogs.’), and so on. Give the first team 1 or 2 minutes to make as many comparative chains as possible, and then change the topic (e.g. food) for the next team.
